Transcriptomic evidence of impaired immunoglobulin G production in fatal septic shock

Boomer et al [5] reported extensive depletion of splenic CD4, CD8, and HLA-DR cells in patients dying of sepsis. [...]HLA-DR expression in monocytes has been proposed to be a reliable predictor of mortality in severe sepsis [6]. Boomer et al [5] reported extensive depletion of splenic CD4, CD8, and...

[...]HLA-DR expression in monocytes has been proposed to be a reliable predictor of mortality in severe sepsis [6]. Boomer et al [5] reported extensive depletion of splenic CD4, CD8, and HLA-DR cells in patients dying of sepsis. [...]HLA-DR expression in monocytes has been proposed to be a reliable predictor of mortality in severe sepsis [6]. [...]defective expression of genes playing critical roles in T helper/B-cell activation and immunoglobulin isotype switching could contribute to explain the low levels of IgG observed in patients dying of SS.
