TLDR
Recent insights into the signaling pathways in immune and phagocytic cells that underlie sepsis and SIRS are discussed and how these might be targeted for therapeutic interventions to reverse or attenuate pathways that lead to lethality during sepsi are considered.

Sepsis: Current Dogma and New Perspectives

TL;DR: It is argued that it is time to delineate novel immunometabolic and neurophysiological mechanisms underlying the altered cellular bioenergetics and failure of epithelial and endothelial barriers that produce organ dysfunction and death.
Journal ArticleDOI

The immune system's role in sepsis progression, resolution, and long‐term outcome

TL;DR: Efforts are focused on more clearly defining and effectively reversing the persistent immune cell dysfunction associated with long‐term sepsis mortality, which alters the innate and adaptive immune responses for sustained periods of time after clinical recovery.

Sepsis-induced immune dysfunction: can immune therapies reduce mortality?

TL;DR: These efforts are focused on defining and reversing the persistent immune cell dysfunction that is associated with mortality long after the acute events of sepsis have resolved.

Complement in Immune and Inflammatory Disorders: Pathophysiological Mechanisms

TL;DR: This review provides an update about the functional and collaborative capabilities of complement, highlights major disease areas with known complement contribution, and indicates the potential for complement as a focal point in immunomodulatory strategies for treating inflammatory diseases.

IL-15 Prevents Apoptosis, Reverses Innate and Adaptive Immune Dysfunction, and Improves Survival in Sepsis

TL;DR: In conclusion, IL-15 prevents two immunopathologic hallmarks of sepsis, namely, apoptosis and immunosuppression, and improves survival in two different models ofsepsis.

Evaluation of endotoxin models for the study of sepsis

TL;DR: The cytokine response in focus of infection models, such as that induced by cecal ligation and puncture, was examined and found to be more similar to that observed in patients with sepsis than in endotoxin models.

Antioxidant supplementation in sepsis and systemic inflammatory response syndrome.

TL;DR: Three antioxidant nutrients have demonstrated clinical benefits and reached level A evidence: a) selenium improves clinical outcome (infections, organ failure); b) glutamine reduces infectious complication in large-sized trials; and c) the association of eicosapentaenoic acid and micronutrients has significant anti-inflammatory effects.

PPARγ and Oxidative Stress: Con(β) Catenating NRF2 and FOXO

TL;DR: The role of PPARγ in response to oxidative stress and its interaction with other signaling pathways implicated in this process are reviewed, an interaction that emerged as a potential new therapeutic target for several oxidative-related diseases.

Enhancing Nrf2 Pathway by Disruption of Keap1 in Myeloid Leukocytes Protects against Sepsis

TL;DR: This study shows that Nrf2 acts as a critical immunomodulator in leukocytes, controls host inflammatory response to bacterial infection, and protects against sepsis.
