Abstract

The precise pathophysiology of septic shock is yet unknown, as is the number and the relative importance of the various mediators that are believed to initiate and maintain the syndrome. This is mainly due to the lack of adequate animal shock models [1] and the unavoidable inhomogeneity of the groups of patients studied [2]. Nonetheless, the enormous volume of research that has been performed in this field, particularly in the last decades, makes it possible today to trace more reliable hypotheses on the pathogenesis of septic shock, with particular emphasis on cellular and subcellular structures and functions.
