Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction condition caused by a dysregulated host response to an infection. Here we report that the circulating levels of growth and differentiation factor-15 (GDF15) are strongly increased in septic shock patients and correlate with mortality. In mice, we find that peptidoglycan is a potent ligand that signals through the TLR2-Myd88 axis for the secretion of GDF15, and thatGdf15-deficient mice are protected against abdominal sepsis due to increased chemokine CXC ligand 5 (CXCL5)-mediated recruitment of neutrophils into the peritoneum, leading to better local bacterial control. Our results identify GDF15 as a potential target to improve sepsis treatment. Its inhibition should increase neutrophil recruitment to the site of infection and consequently lead to better pathogen control and clearance.

Odontogenic phlegmon of the mouth floor—Ludwig's angina (phlegmonae fundi cavi oris seu angina Ludovici)—is a rare, life-threatening, local complication in most cases of odontogenic inflammation. This study presents the case of a patient treated in the Department of Maxillofacial and Plastic Surgery of the University Hospital in Białystok due to phlegmon of the mouth floor resulting from odontogenic inflammation with a dynamic course. Quick diagnostics, surgical intervention as well as antibiotic therapy contributed to its efficient and successful treatment.
