The effects of priming monocytes from septic patients with granulocyte-macrophage colonystimulating factor (GM-CSF) ex vivo were investigated. Monocytes from septic patients had depressed plasma ...
Adrenomedullin is increased in acute liver failure syndromes (ALF and ACLF), and AMBP1 is, on the contrary, reduced, mirroring the severity of the disease expressed by the SOFA score. ADM affects ...

Founded in 1904, The Journal of Infectious Diseases is the premier publication in the Western Hemisphere for original research on the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of infectious diseases, on ...
Liver failure syndromes are characterized by a dysregulated immune response leading to immune paralysis. Adrenomedullin (ADM) is a potent vasodilator and immunoregulator. This study aimed to explore ...
A new study published on the preprint server medRxiv* in June 2020 shows that the drug hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) suppresses a form of immunity called ‘trained immunity,’ with repercussions for its ...
