These data were consistent with the findings from Figures 2A, B, 3J and confirmed that inflammatory organ damage is accompanied by the down-regulation of CASP4 and GSDMD, but not CASP5. Since leukocytosis is a common hallmark of sepsis and severe inflammatory conditions, we also tested for correlation with white blood cell counts (WBCs) as a surrogate of systemic inflammation and found the same strong correlation with HLA-DRA, IRF2, IRF1, CASP4, and GSDMD (Figures S3G–J, L), but not CASP5 (Figure S3K). The gene discussed is IRF1; the disease is Sepsis.
