  1. HMG-1/Y Regulation of NOS2 Expression in Endotoxemia
    REBECCA BARON; Fiscal Year: 2007
    ..These experiments will allow us to determine the role of HMG-I/Y in regulating NOS2 expression during endotoxemia and may reveal a novel target for improving outcomes from sepsis. ..
  2. Role of NOS2 in Sepsis-Induced ARDS
    Rebecca M Baron; Fiscal Year: 2010
    ..Achievement of the AIMS of this proposal hold significant promise for gaining novel insights into the pathobiology of sepsis-induced ARDS that can inform the development of new treatment strategies for these devastating syndromes. ..
