The cost both in terms of lives lost and annual healthcare expenditures from sepsis is staggering. Unfortunately despite an increasing understanding of the unique molecular pathobiology of sepsis mortality has remained more or less stable over the past decade. Moreover promising therapies in preclinical models of sepsis have universally failed to live up to initial expectations in subsequent clinical trials. Multiple studies have demonstrated that apoptosis plays a major role in the pathobiology of sepsis and acute lung injury making the apoptosis pathway an attractive target for therapy. Herein the role of apoptosis in sepsis is briefly discussed highlighting studies with one potential therapeutic agent targeting the apoptosis pathway. Weber and colleagues recently demonstrated that the broad caspase inhibitor VX-166 significantly inhibited lymphocyte apoptosis and improved survival in two complementary rodent models of sepsis - endotoxin shock and cecal .
