Abstract:
Phages can fight against sepsis through directly lysing the bacteria and influence the patients′ self-response to the pathogens through the immunomodulation effects in a coordinated way. Under the situation of the rising antimicrobial resistance, phage has attracted wide attention of researchers at home and abroad. Along with the development of researches and clinical related trials, we believe phage therapy in sepsis treatment can be expected soon in the future.
