The implication of targeting PD-1:PD-L1 pathway in treating sepsis through immunostimulatory and anti-inflammatory pathways

Yu Chen,
De-zhi Guo,
Cheng-long Zhu
et al.

Abstract: Sepsis currently remains a major contributor to mortality in the intensive care unit (ICU), with 48.9 million cases reported globally and a mortality rate of 22.5% in 2017, accounting for almost 20% of all-cause mortality worldwide. This highlights the urgent need to improve the understanding and treatment of this condition. Sepsis is now recognized as a dysregulation of the host immune response to infection, characterized by an excessive inflammatory response and immune paralysis. This dysregulation leads to … Show more

“…With a high mortality rate in hospitals worldwide, the complexity and severity of sepsis is a recognized problem globally ( 3 ). Despite extensive efforts by researchers to enhance the cure rate of sepsis patients, no targeted treatment for sepsis has been developed as of now ( 4 ). Therefore, a clear understanding of the immune factors associated with the progression of sepsis is of great significance for the development of new treatment options to improve the cure rate of sepsis.…”
