About

Current study evaluates the relationship between cell immunity and lipid transport systems in patients with severe bacterial infections (on the model of pneumonia, infective endocarditis, sepsis) in order to develop new methods for predicting the course and outcome of severe bacterial infections.

Full description

• To study the state of the immune system in patients with severe bacterial infections (on the model of pneumonia, infective endocarditis, sepsis): spontaneous and stimulated production of reactive oxygen species by blood neutrophils; spontaneous necroptosis, apoptosis and pyroptosis of neutrophils; the content of blood leukocyte subpopulations.
• Assess the clinical, biochemical status, state of the lipid transport system of patients with severe bacterial infections (in the model of pneumonia, infective endocarditis, sepsis), including determination of the cholesterol content in the cell membrane of T-cells and monocytes.
• To develop a method for predicting an unfavorable course and an algorithm for the treatment (immunocorrection) of severe bacterial infections (on the model of pneumonia, infectious endocarditis, sepsis) based on the determination of the clinical and immunological status, indicators of the lipid transport system and dysmetabolic disorders, and propose a correction method for the treatment of these diseases, supplementing existing clinical protocols (preparations of immunoglobulins, lipids for parenteral nutrition, possibly PCSK9 inhibitors).
