What is Sepsis?
Sepsis is an inflammatory response of the immune system to an infection from bacteria or its components
Annually affects 750,000 patients Main cause of death in the Intensive
Care Facilities Mortality rate >28% in the United States
(250,000 deaths)

• Gi proteins co-immunoprecipitate with TLR receptor proteins •LPS directly stimulates Gαi protein activation in RAW 264.7 murine macrophages •Inhibitors of Gi protein augment TLR induced inflammatory cytokine production•Gαi2 (-/-) knock out mice are highly suceptible to lethal endotoxemia and polymicrobial sepsis

Hypothesis
The over expression of Gαi2 proteins in RAW 264.7 cells will suppress TLR induced inflammatory cytokine production and signal transduction pathways.

Experiments
Lentiviral over expression of Gαi 2 protein
Western Blot of phosphoactive ERK 1/2
10ng/mL LPS or 1μg/mL Pam3CSK4
RAW 264.7 cells transfected with the control vector
ELISA to measure TNF and IL-6 concentration

Summary • Gαi2 RAW cells compared to vector control
RAWcells exhibited reduced TNFα and IL-6 when stimulated with the Pam3CKS4 and LPS.
• Preliminary data suggests that Gαi2 RAW cells exhibited reduced activation of ERK 1/2 compared to the vector control cells in response to LPS stimulation

Conclusion
Our data support our hypothesis that Gαi2 over expression in RAW 264.7 cells suppresses TLR induced inflammatory cytokine production and signaling.
