Cerebrospinal fluid transcriptional analyses reveals upregulation of IL-17, Type 1 interferon transcriptional pathways and neutrophil persistence genes associated with increased mortality from pneumococcal meningitis in adults
2018-12-07
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Improving outcomes from pneumococcal meningitis (PM), particularly in populations with high HIV prevalence, requires better understanding of host inflammatory responses to infection. <h4>Methods</h4> We compared the transcriptome in pre-antibiotic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood from Malawian adults with PM using RNA sequencing. We used network analyses and cellular/process deconvolution...
