The observed ‘immunosuppression’ was not limited to the rarer bacteremia-inducing species (P. aeruginosa, S. lugdunensis) shown in Figures 3C, D but was also present in patients infected by the more common species causal in bacteremia (E. coli and S. aureus), where the Rac1•GTP levels across cases, span a wide range (Figure 4). This evidence concerns the gene RAC1 and bacterial infectious disease with sepsis.
