Citrullinated histone H3 and procalcitonin in the diagnosis and predicting the outcome of septic shock

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases
Sepsis and septic shock stimulate a massive inflammatory response during which neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) release citrullinated histone H3 (CitH3) into the circulation, leading to tissue damage, coagulopathy, and organ failure.

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Sepsis and septic shock [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Disease Primers, 2016
For more than two decades, sepsis was defined as a microbial infection that produces fever (or hypothermia), tachycardia, tachypnoea and blood leukocyte changes. Sepsis is now increasingly being considered a dysregulated systemic inflammatory and immune response to microbial invasion that produces organ injury for which mortality rates are declining to

Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock: Timing of Septic Shock Onset Matters

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction: Timing of septic shock onset may play a prognostic role in severe sepsis; however, clinical evidence provides contradictory results. This study aimed to investigate possible associations between timing of onset of septic shock and patient ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Clinical characteristics associated with septic shock complicating hypothermia: a retrospective cohort study from the MIMIC-IV database

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medical Research
Background Septic shock, a severe consequence of sepsis, has a high mortality rate. Hypothermia can aggravate the state of septic shock patients, which influences therapeutic response and overall prognosis.

About adaptive state knowledge extraction for septic shock mortality prediction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The early prediction of mortality is one of the unresolved tasks in intensive care medicine. This contribution models medical symptoms as observations cased by transitions between hidden markov states.

Should Vasopressors Be Started Early in Septic Shock? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Sepsis can influence blood volume, its distribution, vascular tone, and cardiac function. Persistent hypotension or the need for vasopressors after volume resuscitation is part of the definition of septic shock. Since increased positive fluid balance has

Partial FAK suppression promotes tumor growth, an effect reversed by macrophage p110δ PI3K inactivation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Partial inhibition of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) can paradoxically promote tumor growth, rather than simply producing a weaker antitumor effect than that observed with strong FAK suppression. In breast cancer and melanoma models, targeting p110δ PI3K, particularly in macrophages, counteracted these tumor‐promoting effects, highlighting the importance ...
