Fig. 1

Concentration of host defence peptides in plasma of humans and mice after multiple trauma. a ELISA analysis shows HBD-2 in plasma samples of multiple traumatized patients from day 0, day 3, day 7 and day 14 after multiple trauma. Expression was compared to the expression of a healthy control group. b In trauma mouse model significant induction of MBD-4 was detected directly after hit. Analogue to human the highest levels were measured on day of trauma. *** = p < 0.001; * = p < 0.05 versus controls; d = days; h = hours
