Since the patient’s neutrophils did not exhibit a primary chemotaxis defect, we next measured levels of the neutrophil-targeted chemokines CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL5 and IL-8 in the infected CSF by Luminex array at different prospective time-points during uncontrolled fungal infection. The gene discussed is CXCL2; the disease is fungal infectious disease.
