Currently, hepatitis C (HCV) is considered the most common etiological factor of mixed cryoglobulinemia. In addition, mixed cryoglobulinemia may be associated with other infectious agents, as well as autoimmune and lymphoproliferative diseases. In the absence of such association, we can talk about essential mixed cryoglobulinemia. To understand how different nosologies in their clinical and morphological picture lead to the development of mixed cryoglobulinemia, it is necessary to carefully analyze the mechanisms of the development of some of them, namely, HCV-associated cryoglobulinemic vasculitis and Sjögren's syndrome. It is noteworthy that mixed cryoglobulinemia in relation to Sjögren's syndrome can be perceived both as its consequence and as a manifestation of the underlying disease.

One of the main mechanisms leading to the death of patients with sepsis is an imbalance of the immune response to pathogens. Activation of immune cells, in particular neutrophils, plays a key role in the mechanisms of sepsis. During sepsis, the number of immature neutrophils in the blood increases, PD-L1 neutrophils appear, which have an immunosuppressive function, and the number of Neu1 subtype of neutrophils, characterized by high expression of the NF-kB inhibitor, the chemokine CXCL8, olfactomedine, which regulates the production of cytokines, and myeloperoxidase, increases. When the inflammatory response generalizes, the phagocytic and bactericidal functions of neutrophils are disrupted. An important role in the mechanisms of sepsis is played by the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps, extracellular DNA, and the nuclear non-histone protein HMGB1, which are DAMPs and have proinflammatory activity.
