Association between Preoperative Plasma sRAGE Levels and Recovery from Cardiac Surgery

Association between Preoperative Plasma sRAGE Levels and Recovery from Cardiac Surgery

Background. The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is an inflammation-perpetuating receptor, and soluble RAGE (sRAGE) is a marker of cellular RAGE expression. This study investigated whether raised plasma levels prior to surgery of sRAGE or S100A8/A9 (a RAGE ligand) were associated...
