Gene expression analysis for pneumonia caused by Gram-positive bacterial infection

Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine, 2018
Gram-positive bacteria are an important pathogenic factor for bacterial pneumonia. The aim of the present study was to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and to explore their associated pathways or expression patterns. Expression profiling of gene arrays from two independent datasets, GSE6269 and GSE35716, were downloaded from the Gene ...

Identification of protein biomarkers to differentiate between gram-negative and gram-positive infections in adults suspected of sepsis

BMC Infectious Diseases
Background Sepsis is mostly caused by bacterial infections and requires a prompt diagnosis. There is a need for improved diagnostics by differentiating between gram-negative and gram-positive bacterial infections.
