Description

Hongying Cao and co-authors search blood gene data for marker genes that could help identify and understand sepsis, published in 2025. Sepsis is a life-threatening failure of organs in response to infection. Death rates run high, and rise further in severe cases and septic shock.

The team sequenced genes in blood from sepsis patients and healthy volunteers. Computer analysis, lab tests, and a meta-analysis were used to pick out genes that differ in sepsis. They then checked single-cell data to locate where those genes act. A sepsis cell model, gene silencing, and a protein test were used to validate the markers and gauge inflammatory factors. The goal is a set of candidate genes tied to how sepsis affects the immune system.
