Plasma Resuscitation Improved Survival in a Cecal Ligation and Puncture Rat Model of Sepsis.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:The paradigm shift from crystalloid to plasma resuscitation of traumatic hemorrhagic shock has improved patient outcomes due in part to plasma-mediated reversal of catecholamine and inflammation-induced endothelial injury, decreasing vascular permeability and attenuating organ injury. Since sepsis induces a similar endothelial injury as seen in hemorrhage, we hypothesized that plasma resuscitation would increase 48-h survival in a rat sepsis model. METHODS:Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats (375-425?g) were subjected to 35% cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) (t?=?0?h). Twenty-two hours post-CLP and prior to resuscitation (t?=?22?h), animals were randomized to resuscitation with normal saline (NS, 10?cc/kg/h) or pooled rat fresh frozen plasma (FFP, 3.33?cc/kg/h). Resuscitation under general anesthesia proceeded for the next 6 h (t?=?22?h to t?=?28?h); lactate was checked every 2?h, and fluid volumes were titrated based on lactate clearance. Blood samples were obtained before (t?=?22?h) and after resuscitation (t?=?28?h), and at death or study conclusion. Lung specimens were obtained for calculation of wet-to-dry weight ratio. Fisher exact test was used to analyze the primary outcome of 48-h survival. ANOVA with repeated measures was used to analyze the effect of FFP versus NS resuscitation on blood gas, electrolytes, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, catecholamines, and syndecan-1 (marker for endothelial injury). A two-tailed alpha level of <0.05 was used for all statistical tests. RESULTS:Thirty-three animals were studied: 14 FFP, 14 NS, and 5 sham. Post-CLP but preresuscitation (t?=?22?h) variables between FFP and NS animals were similar and significantly deranged compared with sham animals. FFP significantly increased 48-h survival compared to NS (n?=?8 [57%] vs n?=?2 [14%]), attenuated the post-resuscitation (t?=?28?h) levels of epinephrine (mean 2.2 vs 7.0?ng/mL), norepinephrine, (3.8 vs 8.9?ng/mL), IL-6 (3.8 vs 18.7?ng/mL), and syndecan-1 (21.8 vs 31.0?ng/mL) (all P?

Project description:BackgroundIndividual T cell responses vary significantly based on the microenvironment present at the time of immune response and on prior induced T cell memory. While the cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) model is the most commonly used murine sepsis model, the contribution of diverse T cell responses has not been explored. We defined T cell subset responses to CLP using single-cell RNA sequencing and examined the effects of prior induced T cell memory (Immune Education) on these responses. We hypothesized that Immune Education prior to CLP would alter T cell responses at the single cell level at a single, early post-CLP time point.MethodsSplenic T cells were isolated from C57BL/6 mice. Four cohorts were studied: Control, Immune-Educated, CLP, and Immune-Educated CLP. At age 8 weeks, Immune-Educated and Immune-Educated CLP mice received anti-CD3ϵ antibody; Control and CLP mice were administered an isotype control. CLP (two punctures with a 22-gauge needle) was performed at 12-13 weeks of life. Mice were sacrificed at baseline or 24-hours post-CLP. Unsupervised clustering of the transcriptome library identified six distinct T cell subsets: quiescent naïve CD4+, primed naïve CD4+, memory CD4+, naïve CD8+, activated CD8+, and CD8+ cytotoxic T cell subsets. T cell subset specific gene set enrichment analysis and Hurdle analysis for differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were performed.ResultsT cell responses to CLP were not uniform - subsets of activated and suppressed T cells were identified. Immune Education augmented specific T cell subsets and led to genomic signatures favoring T cell survival in unoperated and CLP mice. Additionally, the combination of Immune Education and CLP effected the expression of genes related to T cell activity in ways that differed from CLP alone. Validating our finding that IL7R pathway markers were upregulated in Immune-Educated CLP mice, we found that Immune Education increased T cell surface IL7R expression in post-CLP mice.ConclusionImmune Education enhanced the expression of genes associated with T cell survival in unoperated and CLP mice. Induction of memory T cell compartments via Immune Education combined with CLP may increase the model's concordance to human sepsis.

Project description:Cyclophilin A (CyPA), a ubiquitously distributed intracellular protein, is thought to be one of the important inflammatory factors and plays a significant role in the development process of sepsis. In the form of cytokine, CyPA deteriorates sepsis by promoting intercellular communication, apoptosis of endothelial cells and chemotactic effect on inflammatory cells. In our previous study, cyclophilin A of Clonorchis sinensis (CsCyPA), a type of excretory-secretory antigen, could induce the patients infected with Clonorchis sinensis to produce specific anti-CsCyPA antibodies. In this study, we investigated whether anti-CsCyPA antibodies could cross-react with CyPA and then play a protective role against sepsis, just like other anti-cytokine antagonists.The mice model with sepsis was established with cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Fifty mg/kg purified anti-CsCyPA antibodies were injected via the caudal vein 6 h after the CLP operation, and persistent observation was performed for 72 h. Blood samples and tissues were collected at 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after CLP. Cytokines in serum were measured by ELISA. Lung and mesentery tissues were stained with hematoxylin-eosin. Endothelial cells (ECs) isolated from murine aorta were co-cultured with CyPA of mice (MuCyPA) and anti-CsCyPAs for 24 h, then, viability was measured by Cell Counting Kit-8.Anti-CsCyPA antibodies could combine with MuCyPA and inhibit its peptidyl prolyl isomerase (PPIase) activity. In the antibodies treatment group, blood coagulation indicators including PT, aPTT, D-dimer and platelet count were obviously more ameliorative, the proinflammary factors like IL-6, TNF-?, IL-1? were significantly lower at 12 h and 24 h after surgery and the viability of ECs was significantly improved compared to those in the control group. Furthermore, the survival rate was elevated, ranging from 10.0 % to 45.0 % compared to the control group.These antibodies may have a favorable effect on sepsis via inhibition of enzymic activity or protection of endothelial cells.
