Sepsis is a common and deadly condition. Within the current model of sepsis immunobiology, the framing of dysregulated host immune responses into proinflammatory and immunosuppressive responses for the testing of novel treatments has not resulted in successful immunomodulatory therapies. Thus, the recent focus has been to parse observable heterogeneity into subtypes of sepsis to enable personalised immunomodulation. In this Personal View, we highlight that many fundamental immunological concepts such as resistance, disease tolerance, resilience, resolution, and repair are not incorporated into the current sepsis immunobiology model. The focus for addressing heterogeneity in sepsis should be broadened beyond subtyping to encompass the identification of deterministic molecular networks or dominant mechanisms. We explicitly reframe the dysregulated host immune responses in sepsis as altered homoeostasis with pathological disruption of immune-driven resistance, disease tolerance, resilience, and resolution mechanisms. Our proposal highlights opportunities to identify novel treatment targets and could enable successful immunomodulation in the future.

Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (S-AKI) is a prevalent and life-threatening complication in hospitalized and critically ill patients. Recent researches indicates that immunoproteasome, especially proteasome 20S subunit beta 8 (PSMB8), is highly associated with various kidney diseases. This study aims to investigate the potential involvement of PSMB8 in S-AKI and its impact on apoptosis and inflammation.

Background/objectives: In a previous study, we described elevated anti- IgG levels in septic patients in relation to disease severity. In this study, our objective was to analyze the evolution of anti- immunoglobulins in septic patients during hospital admission and their association with αβ and γδ T cell subsets.
Methods: We recruited 80 subjects: 40 patients with sepsis and 40 controls.

Background: Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life support method used to treat patients with respiratory failure. High tidal volumes during MV can cause ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), but also affect other organs, such as the diaphragm (Dia) causing ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (VIDD). VIDD is often associated with a complicated course on MV.

Article Synopsis
- The human IRGM gene is associated with inflammatory conditions like sepsis and Crohn's disease, where decreased expression can lead to increased inflammatory markers in the body.
- Prior research showed that changes in metabolism and mitochondrial functions are linked to increased inflammatory responses, but the exact mechanisms were unclear.
- New findings revealed that type I interferon (IFN) production in macrophages is crucial for heightened cytokine levels due to IRGM deficiency, and novel pathways affecting mitochondrial function contribute to this inflammatory response.
