ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to methods and compositions for the diagnosis and treatment of sepsis. The present invention also provides methods of providing a prognosis to a patient with sepsis. In particular, the present invention relates to compositions and methods for the detection of C5aR expression and the correlation of C5aR expression level with prognosis in sepsis.
