Abstract
TREM-1 (triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1) is a transmembrane receptor expressed by innate immune cells, including endothelial cells and platelets. TREM-1 is a crucial mediator of septic shock that acts by synergizing with Toll-like receptors (TLRs) to amplify the inflammatory responses to pathogens, thus promoting sepsis-induced immune dysregulation and organ dysfunction.
