by an IV injection with Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS; US standard reference
endotoxin, kindly provided by the National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD) at 4 ng/kg
body weight. Blood was obtained t=− 3, 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, and 21 hours
relative to LPS injection. Plasma samples of sepsis patients, described elsewhere, were
