Editor’s summary
Comparative studies using two Lactobacillus rhamnosus strains demonstrate that nasal administration of immunobiotics beneficially modulate immune responses in the respiratory tract and increase resistance to Respiratory Syncytial Virus challenge in mice.

Editor’s summary
Novel methodology for designing real-time PCR arrays in deer mice indicates that lymph node T cells from those infected with ANDV express mostly genes of the Th2 phenotype but fewer genes of Th1 and Treg phenotypes.

Revisiting the white blood cell count: immature granulocytes count as a diagnostic marker to discriminate between SIRS and sepsis - a prospective, observational study
Axel Nierhaus, Stefanie Klatte, Jo Linssen, Nina M Eismann, Dominic Wichmann, Jörg Hedke, Stephan A Braune, Stefan Kluge BMC Immunology 2013, 14 :8 (12 February 2013)

Editor’s summary
Immature granulocyte (IG) count in peripheral blood is an effective marker for identifying infected patients during the early onset of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), suggesting routine measurement could offer new potential for rapid screening.
