ImmuneRegulation: a web-based tool for identifying human immune regulatory elements
Continue reading →: ImmuneRegulation: a web-based tool for identifying human immune regulatory elementsThis paper by Kalayci et al. describes an interesting, new, and freely accessible web-based tool for the identification of human genes/proteins involved in disease-associated immune regulation. This might be useful also to research on the immunology of sepsis. Kalayci S, Selvan ME, Ramos I, Cotsapas C, Harris E, Kim E-Y,…

Characterizing the immunophenotypes of lymphopenic community-acquired pneumonia
Continue reading →: Characterizing the immunophenotypes of lymphopenic community-acquired pneumoniaCommunity-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is the leading cause of sepsis. Whereas the host response has been analyzed regarding innate immunity and inflammatory response, adaptive immunity remained largely unexplored. Méndez et al. aimed to contribute to detailed immunoprofiling in CAP by evaluating the host’s adaptive immunity.
