Role of TREM-1 in pulmonary tuberculosis patients- analysis of serum soluble TREM-1 levels.

ABSTRACT: Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM-1) amplifies inflammatory responses and is upregulated during sepsis and pulmonary infection. The association between serum soluble TREM-1 (sTREM-1) level and pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) disease deserves investigation. In the present study, patients with PTB, latent TB infection (LTBI), and non-TB, non-LTBI subjects were prospectively enrolled and serum levels of sTREM-1, sTREM-2, and C-reactive protein (CRP) were measured. We correlated serum biomarkers and clinical presentations and treatment outcomes of PTB cases. We also utilized immunohistochemistry (IHC) to visualize TREM-1-expressing cells in lung tissues from PTB patients. A total of 86 PTB, 41 LTBI, and 20 non-TB, non-LTBI subjects were enrolled. Serum levels of sTREM-1 and CRP significantly increased in PTB patients; these higher serum levels were correlated with more advanced involvement in chest films and higher bacteria burden in sputum. In multivariate analysis, serum levels of sTREM-1 >260?pg/mL and CRP >2.6?mg/L were independent predictors for on-treatment mortality. Abundant TREM-1-expressing macrophages were identified in lung tissues from PTB samples. In conclusion, serum levels of sTREM-1 correlated with disease severity and treatment outcomes in PTB patients.

Project description:BackgroundThe immuno-receptor Triggering Expressed on Myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) is activated during bacterial infectious diseases, where it amplifies the inflammatory response. Small studies suggest that TREM-1 could be involved in viral infections, including COVID-19. We here aim to decipher whether plasma concentration of the soluble form of TREM-1 (sTREM-1) could predict the outcome of hospitalized COVID-19 patients.MethodsWe conducted a multicentre prospective observational study in 3 university hospitals in France. Consecutive hospitalized patients with confirmed infection with SARS-CoV-2 were enrolled. Plasma concentration of sTREM-1 was measured on admission and then at days 4, 6, 8, 14, 21, and 28 in patients admitted into an ICU (ICU cohort: ICUC) or 3 times a week for patients hospitalized in a medical ward (Conventional Cohort: ConvC). Clinical and biological data were prospectively recorded and patients were followed-up for 90 days. For medical ward patients, the outcome was deemed complicated in case of requirement of increased oxygen supply > 5 L/min, transfer to an ICU, or death. For Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients, complicated outcome was defined by death in the ICU.ResultsPlasma concentration of sTREM-1 at inclusion was higher in ICU patients (n = 269) than in medical ward patients (n = 562) (224 pg/mL (IQR 144-320) vs 147 pg/mL (76-249), p < 0.0001), and higher in patients with a complicated outcome in both cohorts: 178 (94-300) vs 135 pg/mL (70-220), p < 0.0001 in the ward patients, and 342 (288-532) vs 206 pg/mL (134-291), p < 0.0001 in the ICU patients. Elevated sTREM-1 baseline concentration was an independent predictor of complicated outcomes (Hazard Ratio (HR) = 1.5 (1.1-2.1), p = 0.02 in ward patients; HR = 3.8 (1.8-8.0), p = 0.0003 in ICU patients). An sTREM-1 plasma concentration of 224 pg/mL had a sensitivity of 42%, and a specificity of 76% in the ConvC for complicated outcome. In the ICUC, a 287 pg/mL cutoff had a sensitivity of 78%, and a specificity of 74% for death. The sTREM-1 concentrations increased over time in the ConvC patients with a complicated outcome (p = 0.017), but not in the ICUC patients.ConclusionsIn COVID-19 patients, plasma concentration of sTREM-1 is an independent predictor of the outcome, although its positive and negative likelihood ratio are not good enough to guide clinical decision as a standalone marker.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to explore the diagnostic value of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (sTREM-1), procalcitonin (PCT), and C-reactive protein (CRP) serum levels for differentiating sepsis from SIRS, identifying new fever caused by bacteremia, and assessing prognosis when new fever occurred.We enrolled 144 intensive care unit (ICU) patients: 60 with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and 84 with sepsis complicated by new fever at more than 48?h after ICU admission. Serum sTREM-1, PCT, and CRP levels were measured on the day of admission and at the occurrence of new fever (>38.3°C) during hospitalization. Based on the blood culture results, the patients were divided into a blood culture-positive bacteremia group (33 patients) and blood culture-negative group (51 patients). Based on 28-day survival, all patients, both blood culture-positive and -negative, were further divided into survivor and nonsurvivor groups.On ICU day 1, the sepsis group had higher serum sTREM-1, PCT, and CRP levels compared with the SIRS group (P <0.05). The areas under the curve (AUC) for these indicators were 0.868 (95% CI, 0.798-0.938), 0.729 (95% CI, 0.637-0.821), and 0.679 (95% CI, 0.578-0.771), respectively. With 108.9?pg/ml as the cut-off point for serum sTREM-1, sensitivity was 0.83 and specificity was 0.81. There was no statistically significant difference in serum sTREM-1 or PCT levels between the blood culture-positive and -negative bacteremia groups with ICU-acquired new fever. However, the nonsurvivors in the blood culture-positive bacteremia group had higher levels of serum sTREM-1 and PCT (P <0.05), with a prognostic AUC for serum sTREM-1 of 0.868 (95% CI, 0.740-0.997).Serum sTREM-1, PCT, and CRP levels each have a role in the early diagnosis of sepsis. Serum sTREM-1, with the highest sensitivity and specificity of all indicators studied, is especially notable. sTREM-1, PCT, and CRP levels are of no use in determining new fever caused by bacteremia in ICU patients, but sTREM-1 levels reflect the prognosis of bacteremia.ClinicalTrial.gov identifier NCT01410578.
