Sepsis is a significant cause of mortality in hospitalized patients. Concomitant development of acute kidney injury (AKI) increases sepsis mortality through unclear mechanisms. Although electrolyte disturbances and toxic metabolite buildup during AKI could be important, it is possible that the kidney produces a protective molecule lost during sepsis with AKI. We have previously demonstrated that systemic Tamm-Horsfall protein (THP; uromodulin), a kidney-derived protein with immunomodulatory properties, falls in AKI. Using a mouse sepsi
