The role of nod-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in diagnosis of late onset neonatal sepsis

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Neonatal sepsis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality among neonates. Nod-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is a core element for innate immune protection. The study aims to estimate the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome in full term newborn infants who suffer from late onset sepsis, in order to assess its diagnostic value. METHOD: This case-control study was...
