Recently, RECK has been defined as the negative regulator of adisintegrin and metalloproteinases (ADAMs) and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which are both membrane “molecular scissors” and aggravate the poor prognosis of sepsis. To better understand the roles of RECK and the related mechanisms, we make here a systematic and in-depth review of RECK. We first summarize the findings on structural characteristics of RECK protein and the regulation at the transcription, post-transcription, or protein level of RECK. Then, we discuss the roles of RECK in inflammation, infection, and vascular injury by focusing on the RECK function on ADAMs and MMPs, as well as the pathways of VEGF, WNT, angiopoietin, and notch signaling. In conclusion, RECK participation as a guardian in the development of sepsis provides insight into the strategies of precisely intervening in RECK dysregulationfor the treatment of sepsis.Keywords: RECK, sepsis, vascular endothelial function regulation, inflammation
