Inflammation biomarkers and pathways

Inflammation biomarkers and pathways is a research topic within Immunology. Science Explorer counts 8.4k research works in it since 1959. 16.5% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers explores the role of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) and endocan in inflammatory responses, sepsis, and various inflammatory diseases. It investigates their impact on immune cells such as macrophages and neutrophils, as well as their potential as diagnostic markers for conditions like pneumonia and septic shock.
