Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome (MODS) frequently leads to death in patients with sepsis. Our previous work has demonstrated that endothelial injury is closely associated with MODS development and mortality in septic patients. The sepsis-induced damage of endothelial cell membrane gives rise to increased capillary permeability. Evidence suggests that increased capillary permeability in patients with sepsis was associated with higher incidence of MODS and death during the ICU stay than those with decreased permeability. Angiopoietin (Ang) system is the key mediator for maintaining capillary permeability. Ang-2 triggers an inflammatory response and inducing permeability by activating the endothelium. In contrast, Ang-1 is anti-inflammatory, can inhibit adhesion molecule expression and attenuate permeability increase in different stimuli. The disrupted angiopoietin system has been reported in patients with sepsis, but the association between angiotension and MODS in septic patients has not been well addressed.
