High Mobility Group B-1 Protein as a Diagnostic and Prognostic Tool in Canine Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome and Sepsis

Current Status: Complete.
Principal Investigator:  Kelly Hall, DVM
Contact: Dr. Kelly Hall, Phone: 612-624-6288 E-mail: wilke022@umn.edu

HMGB-1 is known to be involved in inflammatory processes in other mammal species (e.g., humans, mice).  HMGB-1 has been identified as a protein in inflammatory processes, including sepsis, arthritis and cancer. The goal of this study is to evaluate if HMGB-1 can be detected in normal canine patient serum and if it changes significantly in known inflammatory processes (e.g., sepsis) or other naturally occurring animal diseases.
