Hematopoietic Stem And Progenitor Cells Improve Survival From Sepsis By Boosting Immunomodulatory Cells

SUMMARY

A new preclinical study reports on a novel strategy for treating sepsis using hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) with the goal of reducing inflammation. HSPC infusions were correlated with higher survival rates in mice infected with Group A Streptococcus induced sepsis.
