Thrombocytopenic patients displayed hyperactivated PD-L1⁺ CXCR4⁺ platelets, dysfunctional neutrophil–platelet complexes, and elevated plasma MPO-DNA and S100A8/A9, signifying immune exhaustion despite pro-inflammatory signaling.
This platelet–neutrophil immunoparalysis phenotype links hemostatic dysregulation to organ failure risk, spotlighting PD-L1⁺ platelets and NET-associated markers as potential biomarkers or therapeutic targets in severe sepsis.
