Fibrates ameliorate the course of bacterial sepsis by promoting neutrophil recruitment via CXCR2

Abstract Bacterial sepsis results in high mortality rates, and new therapeutics to control infection are urgently needed. Here, we investigate the therapeutic potential of fibrates in the treatment of bacterial sepsis and examine their effects on innate immunity. Fibrates significantly improved the...
