Expression of GPC3 in peripheral circulation of severe pneumonia-associated ARDS patients progressively increased over time (admission day, day 3, day 7) compared with healthy persons or severe pneumonia patients alone.
In addition, a marked increase in cell growth-modulating factors (such as HGF, FGFβ, HB-EGF, and KGF) in the circulation of severe sepsis patients was also found.
Recently, our group found that the serum level of Glypican-3 (GPC3), a proteoglycan anchored to cell surface by glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol, was significantly higher in the circulation of patients with severe pneumonia, as compared with healthy control, and increased even more significantly in patients with severe pneumonia accompanied with ARDS than those with severe pneumonia alone [3].
Hence, we evaluated the impact of this early volume resuscitation on the systemic and splanchnic circulations in a model of severe sepsis.

The incidence of severe heatstroke-induced organ dysfunction in turn was the kidney, circulation, liver, blood coagulation, metabolism, brain, lungs, and gastrointestinal tract.
In animal studies of severe acute pancreatitis, thoracic epidural anesthesia appears to enhance the splanchnic circulation, improve end-organ perfusion, and favorably influence mortality.
Therefore, marked release of AST, ALT, ALP, and LDH into the circulation indicates severe damage to hepatic tissue membranes during CCl4 intoxication [ 36].
One of the hallmarks of severe sepsis that leads to organ dysfunction is a profound disturbance of the microvascular circulation [ 16, 17].
