Slit2N reduces permeability and mortality in a CLP model of sepsis. (A and B) Mice were subjected to CLP or sham operation and then given an intravenous injection of EBA. EBA accumulation was measured in the kidney (A) or spleen (B) to assess vascular permeability (n = 5). (C) Robo4+/+ mice were subjected to CLP and treated with Mock or Slit2N, and survival was assessed (Mock-treated, n = 15; Slit2N-treated, n = 14). (D and E) Cytokine (D) and chemokine (E) concentrations in the serum of Mock- or Slit2N-treated CLP mice (n = 6). (F) Robo4AP/AP mice were subjected to CLP and treated with Mock or Slit2N, and survival was assessed (Mock-treated, n = 13; Slit2N-treated, n = 13). Error bars represent SEM. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ****P < 0.001.
