NBR1 and Sepsis: We examined intracellular p62/NBR1 levels, in lysates of purified PBMCs from 295 samples, as shown in Table 1, and utilized an ELISA assay to measure cytosolic levels of p62 and NBR1 in confirmed melioidosis patients with B. pseudomallei infection, probable cases of melioidosis with high antibody titre specific to B. pseudomallei but were culture negative, healthy controls as well as B. pseudomallei-negative with suspected cases of sepsis, and B. pseudomallei-negative suspected cases of leptospirosis.
