  eLife assessment

  This fundamental study advances our understanding of the role of bacterial-derived extracellular ATP in the pathogenesis of sepsis. The evidence supporting the conclusions is compelling, although not all concerns from a previous round of reviews were adequately addressed. The work will be of broad interest to researchers on microbiology and infectious diseases.
