Project description:Goal of the experiment: To identify correlated genes, pathways and groups of patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome and septic shock that is indicative of biologically important processes active in these patients. Background: We measured gene expression levels and profiles of children with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and septic shock as a means for discovering patient sub-groups and gene signatures that are active in disease-affected individuals and potentially in patients with poor outcomes. Methods: Microarray and bioinformatics analyses of 123 microarray chips representing whole blood derived RNA from controls, children with SIRS, and children with septic shock. Results: A discovery-based filtering approach was undertaken to identify genes whose expression levels were altered in patients with SIRS or septic shock. Clustering of these genes identified 3 Major and several minor sub-groups of patients with SIRS or septic shock. The three groups differed with respect to incidence of septic shock and trended toward differences in mortality. Statistical analyses demonstrated that 6,435 gene probes were differentially regulated between the three patient sub-groups (false discovery rate < 0.001%). Of these gene probes, 623 gene probes within 7 major gene ontologies accounted for the majority of group differentiation. Network analyses of these 623 gene probes demonstrated 5 major gene networks that were differentially expressed between the 3 groups. Statistical comparison of septic shock survivors and non-survivors identified one major gene network that was under expressed in a high fraction of the non-survivors and identified potential biomarkers for poor outcome. Conclusions: This is the first genome-level demonstration of pediatric patient sub-groups with SIRS and septic shock. The sub-groups differ clinically and differentially express 5 major gene networks. We have identified gene signatures and potential biomarkers associated with poor outcome in children with septic shock. These data represent a major advancement in our genome-level understanding of pediatric SIRS and septic shock. Experiment Overall Design: Children < 10 years of age admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit and meeting the criteria for either SIRS or septic shock were eligible for the study. SIRS and septic shock were defined based on pediatric-specific criteria. We did not use separate categories of "sepsis" or "severe sepsis". Patients meeting criteria for "sepsis" or "severe sepsis" were placed in the categories of SIRS and septic shock, respectively, for study purposes. Control patients were recruited from the outpatient or inpatient departments of the participating institutions using the following exclusion criteria: a recent febrile illness (within 2 weeks), recent use of anti-inflammatory medications (within 2 weeks), or any history of chronic or acute disease associated with inflammation. Experiment Overall Design: After obtaining informed consent, blood samples were obtained on Day 1 of the study, and when possible on Day 3 of the study. Blood samples were divided for RNA extraction and isolation of serum. Severity of illness was calculated based on the PRISM III score. Organ failure was defined based on pediatric-specific criteria. Annotated clinical and laboratory data were collected daily while in the intensive care unit. Study patients were placed in the study categories of SIRS or Septic Shock on Day 1 of the study. On Day 3 of the study, patients were classified as SIRS, Septic Shock, or SIRS resolved (no longer meeting criteria for SIRS). All study patients were followed for 28 days to determine mortality or survival. Clinical, laboratory, and biological data were entered and stored using a web-based data base developed locally.

Project description:Rationale: We previously generated genome-wide expression data in children with septic shock, based on whole blood-derive RNA, having the potential to lead the field into novel areas of investigation. Objective: Herein we seek to validate our data through a bioinformatic approach centered on a validation patient cohort. Methods: Microarray- and bioinformatics-centered analyses involving our previous data as a training data set (n = 42) and a new, validation cohort (n = 30) as the test data set. Measurements and Main Results: Class prediction modeling using the training data set and the previously reported genome-wide expression signature of pediatric septic shock correctly identified 93 to 100% of septic shock patients in the test data set, depending on the class prediction algorithm and the gene selection method. Subjecting the test data set to an identical filtering strategy as that used for the training data set, demonstrated 72% concordance between the two gene lists. Subjecting the test data set to a purely statistical filtering strategy, with highly stringent correction for multiple comparisons, demonstrated less than 50% concordance with the previous gene filtering strategy. However, functional analysis of this statistics-based gene list demonstrated similar functional annotations and signaling pathways as that seen in the learning data set. In particular, we validated that pediatric septic shock is characterized by large scale repression of genes related to zinc homeostasis and lymphocyte function. Conclusions: These data demonstrate that the previously reported genome-wide expression signature of pediatric septic shock is applicable to a validation cohort of patients.

Project description:This dataset is composed of the unique patients (276; at the Day 1 timepoint) that are present in the six other GEO datasets published by Hector Wong and the Genomics of Pediatric SIRS and Septic Shock Investigators. This dataset thus includes all unique patients from GSE4607, GSE8121, GSE9692, GSE13904, GSE26378, and GSE26440. These are only from the Day 1 timepoint. The original studies examined pediatric patients admitted to the ICU, who were later classified as either SIRS (non-infectious) or Sepsis or Septic Shock (infectious). There is also a group of healthy controls. Although the original studies examine patients at both ICU day 1 and ICU day 3, here we have only aggregated ICU day 1 patients. All samples here were downloaded as .CEL files and re-normalized together using gcRMA using R package 'affy'. The normalized data can be found on the series record and contains the gcRMA normalized expression values.

Project description:Nowadays, there is no gold standard of sepsis diagnosis, thus there is a challenge to differentiate between shock septic and non-septic shock following a surgery, since patients with both conditions show similar signs and symptoms. In this sense, to get a quick and accurate diagnosis of septic shock is required to allow an immediate and specific treatment for this condition. In this work, we have evaluated the expression profile by microarray analysis from post-surgical septic shock and non-septic shock patients with the aim of proposing a candidate set genes as gold standard to help in distinguishing both conditions.

Project description:Timely and reliable distinction of non-infectious systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), common in critically ill patients, from sepsis to support adequate antimicrobial therapy safes lives but is clinically challenging. Expeditious sepsis biomarkers are thus urgently sought. Blood transcriptional profiling provides insights into sepsis pathophysiology, but variability in leukocyte subtype composition complicates profile interpretation, and reliable reference genes to normalize gene expression in sepsis are lacking. Here, we identified AKIRIN1 as a reference gene, specifically, in peripheral NK cells and granulocytes for differential gene expression analysis between patients with SIRS and septic shock on intensive care unit admission. Discovery by a two-step probabilistic selection from microarray data followed by validation through branched DNA assays in independent patients revealed several candidate reference genes in NK cells, namely, AKIRIN1, PPP6R3, TAX1BP1, and ADRBK1. For in vitro priming of NK cells, GUSB however was confirmed as reference gene of choice. Initially, no candidate genes could be validated in granulocytes, an additional rescreen of known reference genes by RT-PCR included. By serendipity, we could determine equal AKIRIN1 expression levels also in SIRS and septic shock granulocytes and no change by in vitro challenge of granulocytes with LPS. Inspection of four external neutrophil transcriptome datasets further support unchanged AKIRIN1 expression in human systemic inflammation. Invariable AKIRIN1 expression in peripheral NK cells and granulocytes needs further validation in sepsis and other infectious and inflammatory diseases. As a reference gene in these cells and conditions, AKIRIN1 may further our understanding of innate immunity and lead to new biomarkers.

Project description:In an ongoing translational research program involving microarray-based expression profiles in pediatric septic shock, we have now conducted longitudinal studies focused on the temporal expression profiles of canonical signaling pathways and gene networks. Genome-level expression profiles were generated from whole blood-derived RNA samples of children with septic shock (n = 30 individual patients) corresponding to days 1 and 3 of admission to the pediatric intensive care unit. Based on sequential statistical and expression filters, day 1 and day 3 of septic shock were characterized by differential regulation of 2,142 and 2,504 gene probes, respectively, relative to normal control patients. Venn analysis demonstrated 239 unique genes in the day 1 data set, 598 unique genes in the day 3 data set, and 1,906 genes common to both data sets. Analyses targeted toward derivation of biological function from these data sets demonstrated time-dependent, differential regulation of genes involved in multiple canonical signaling pathways and gene networks primarily related to immunity and inflammation. Notably, multiple and distinct gene networks involving T cell- and MHC antigen-related biological processes were persistently downregulated from day 1 to day 3. Further analyses demonstrated large scale and persistent downregulation of genes corresponding to functional annotations related to zinc homeostasis. These data represent the largest reported cohort of patients with septic shock, which has undergone longitudinal genome-level expression profiling. The data further advance our genome-level understanding of pediatric septic shock and support novel hypotheses that can be readily tested at both the experimental and translational levels. Experiment Overall Design: To define the longitudinal, genome-level expression profile of children with septic shock.
