Myeloid-related protein-14 contributes to protective immunity in gram-negative pneumonia derived sepsis.

Myeloid-related protein-14 contributes to protective immunity in gram-negative pneumonia derived sepsis.

Klebsiella (K.) pneumoniae is a common cause of pneumonia-derived sepsis. Myeloid related protein 8 (MRP8, S100A8) and MRP14 (S100A9) are the most abundant cytoplasmic proteins in neutrophils. They can form MRP8/14 heterodimers that are released upon cell stress stimuli. MRP8/14 reportedly exerts an...
