Project description:Hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (HSOS) is a rare liver disease with considerable morbidity and mortality. (-)-Epicatechin (EPI) is a natural flavonol. This study aims to investigate the protection of EPI against monocrotaline (MCT)-induced HSOS and its engaged mechanism. Results of serum alanine/aspartate aminotransferases (ALT/AST) activities, total bilirubin (TBil) and bile acids (TBA) amounts, liver histological evaluation, scanning electron microscope observation and hepatic metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) expression all demonstrated the protection by EPI against MCT-induced HSOS in rats. EPI attenuated liver oxidative injury induced by MCT. EPI enhanced the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and increased the expression of its downstream antioxidant genes in rats. Molecular docking results implied the potential interaction of EPI with the Nrf2 binding site in kelch-like ECH-associated protein-1 (Keap1). The EPI-provided protection against MCT-induced HSOS was diminished in Nrf2 knock-out mice when mice were treated with MCT for 24 h but not for 48 h. However, EPI reduced the increased liver myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, hepatic infiltration of immune cells, pro-inflammatory cytokines expression and nuclear factor κB (NFκB) activation in both wild-type and Nrf2 knock-out mice when mice were treated with MCT for 48 h. EPI reduced the elevated serum heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) content, and reversed the decreased mitochondria expression of HSP60 and Lon in livers from MCT-treated rats. Furthermore, the MCT-induced HSOS was markedly alleviated in mice treated with anti-HSP60 antibody. Taken together, this study demonstrates that EPI attenuates MCT-induced HSOS by reducing liver oxidative injury via activating Nrf2 antioxidant pathway and inhibiting liver inflammatory injury through abrogating NFκB signaling pathway initiated by HSP60.

Project description:Hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome/veno-occlusive disease (SOS/VOD) is a rare but severe complication of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) showing high mortality. Multiple risk factors for SOS/VOD were identified, but it is often confused with other hepatic complications due to nonspecific clinical features. Therefore, diagnostic and severity criteria have been revised several times. The European Society of Blood and Marrow Transplantation suggested a new guideline that excludes the standard duration of development within 21 days, emphasizes late-onset SOS/VOD, and suggests the importance of Doppler ultrasonography. The severity criteria were further subdivided for guidance to begin active treatment using defibrotide which was approved in Korea since 2016. In a phase 3 trial, defibrotide had superior 100-day survival, compared to best available treatments (38.2% vs. 25.0%). Although several studies of SOS/VOD in Korean patients have been performed after the implementation of HCT, most involved small number of pediatric patients. Recently, the Korean Society of Blood and Marrow Transplantation investigated the incidence of SOS/VOD in the Korean population, and several influential studies of adult patients were published. Here, we summarize recent issues regarding the mechanism, diagnosis, severity criteria, prevention, and treatments of SOS/VOD in Korean patients, as well as recent analyses of nationwide incidence.

Project description:Hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS/VOD) represents a dramatic complication of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), particularly in children. Recent evidence has suggested a role for the gut microbiome (GM) in the context of HSCT and its related complications, but no data are available on the relationship between GM and SOS/VOD. Here, we conducted a retrospective case-control study in allo-HSCT pediatric patients developing or not SOS/VOD and profiled their GM over time, from before the transplant up to 72 days after. A rich and diverse GM before HSCT was found to be associated with a reduced likelihood of developing SOS/VOD. Furthermore, prior to transplant, patients not developing SOS/VOD showed an enrichment in some typically health-associated commensals, such as Bacteroides, Ruminococcaceae and Lachnospiraceae. Their levels remained overall higher until post-transplant. This high-diversity configuration resembles that described in other studies for other HSCT-related complications, including graft-versus-host disease, potentially representing a common protective GM feature against HSCT complications.

Project description:BackgroundThe intake of Gynura segetum, a traditional Chinese medicine, may be induce hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (HSOS). It has a high mortality rate based on the severity of the disease and the absence of therapeutic effectiveness. Therefore, the current study was designed to investigate the effects of bicyclol on HSOS induced by Gynura segetum and the potential molecular mechanisms.MethodsGynura segetum (30 g/kg) was administered for 4 weeks in the model group, while the bicyclol pretreatment group received bicyclol (200 mg/kg) administration. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), cholesterol (CHO), triglyceride (TG), and liver histological assays were detected to assess HSOS. The gene expressions of cytochrome P450 (CYP450) isozymes were quantified by real-time PCR. Moreover, hepatocellular apoptosis was detected using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay, then apoptosis and autophagy-related markers were determined using Western blot.ResultsAs a result, bicyclol pretreatment is notably protected against Gynura segetum-induced HSOS, as observed by reducing serum ALT levels, inhibiting the reduction in CHO and TG levels, and alleviating the histopathological changes. Bicyclol pretreatment inhibited the changes in mRNA levels of CYP450 isozymes (including the increase in CYP2a5 and decrease in CYP2b10, 2c29, 2c37, 3a11, and 7b1). In addition, the upregulation of Bcl-2 and the downregulation of LC3-II/LC3-I proteins expression in HSOS were inhibited with bicyclol pretreatment.ConclusionBicyclol exerted a protective effect against HSOS induced by Gynura segetum, which could be attributed to the regulated expressions of CYP450 isozymes and alleviated the downregulation of autophagy.

Project description:Reliable, noninvasive methods for diagnosing and prognosing sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) early after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) are needed. We used a quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomics approach to identify candidate biomarkers of SOS by comparing plasma pooled from 20 patients with and 20 patients without SOS. Of 494 proteins quantified, we selected 6 proteins (L-Ficolin, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 [VCAM1], tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1, von Willebrand factor, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, and CD97) based on a differential heavy/light isotope ratio of at least 2 fold, information from the literature, and immunoassay availability. Next, we evaluated the diagnostic potential of these 6 proteins and 5 selected from the literature (suppression of tumorigenicity-2 [ST2], angiopoietin-2 (ANG2), hyaluronic acid [HA], thrombomodulin, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1) in samples from 80 patients. The results demonstrate that together ST2, ANG2, L-Ficolin, HA, and VCAM1 compose a biomarker panel for diagnosis of SOS. L-Ficolin, HA, and VCAM1 also stratified patients at risk for SOS as early as the day of HCT. Prognostic Bayesian modeling for SOS onset based on L-Ficolin, HA, and VCAM1 levels on the day of HCT and clinical characteristics showed >80% correct prognosis of SOS onset. These biomarkers may provide opportunities for preemptive intervention to minimize SOS incidence and/or severity.

Project description:BACKGROUNDCurrently, no laboratory tests exist to stratify for the risk of developing sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), an early endothelial complication after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Risk biomarkers of SOS have not been verified in a prospective cohort accounting for differences between practices across institutions. Herein, we aimed to define risk groups for SOS occurrence using 3 proteins: L-ficolin, hyaluronic acid (HA), and stimulation 2 (ST2). METHODSBetween 2017 and 2021, we prospectively accrued 80 pediatric patients across 4 US centers. Biomarkers were tested by ELISA blind to patient groupings and associated with SOS incidence on day 35 after HCT, and overall survival (OS) on day 100 after HCT. Cutpoints were identified using retrospective cohorts and applied to the prospective cohort.RESULTSCombination of the 3 biomarkers measured on day 3 after HCT in the prospective cohort provided 80% (95% CI 55%-100%) sensitivity and 73% (95% CI 62%-83%) specificity for risk of SOS occurrence. Patients with low L-ficolin were 9 times (95% CI 3-32) more likely to develop SOS, while patients with high HA and ST2 were 6.5 (95% CI 1.9-22.0) and 5.5 (95% CI 2.3-13.1) times more likely to develop SOS. These 3 markers also predicted worse day 100 OS - L-ficolin: HR, 10.0 (95% CI 2.2-45.1), P = 0.0002; HA: HR, 4.1 (95% CI 1.0-16.4), P = 0.031; and ST2: HR, 3.9 (95% CI 0.9-16.4), P = 0.04.CONCLUSIONL-ficolin, HA, and ST2 levels measured as early as 3 days after HCT improved risk stratification for SOS occurrence and OS and may guide risk-adapted preemptive therapy.TRIAL REGISTRATIONClinicalTrials.gov NCT03132337.FUNDINGNIH.

Project description:AIM:The present study aimed to examine the effects of prophylactic administration of recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin (rTM) for the prevention of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS). MATERIALS AND METHODS:Crl:CD1 mice were allocated to the rTM, placebo, and control groups. The rTM group received an intraperitoneal administration of rTM, with intraperitoneal administration of monocrotaline (MCT) 1 h later. The placebo group received PBS instead of rTM, and the control group received PBS instead of rTM and MCT. Mice were sacrificed 48 h after MCT administration, and blood and liver tissues were evaluated. Immunostaining was performed using anti-CD42b and anti-SE-1 antibodies, and AZAN staining. Levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in whole liver tissues were estimated using RT-PCR. RESULTS:Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that SOS-related findings were markedly attenuated in the rTM group compared to the placebo group. CD42b immunostaining showed the presence of extravasated platelet activation (EPA) in the Disse space in the placebo group, but this was less noticeable in the rTM group. PAI-1 levels were significantly lower in the rTM group than in the placebo group in RT-PCR. However, eNOS levels were significantly higher in the rTM group than in the placebo group. CONCLUSION:Administration of rTM may prevent SOS by protecting sinusoidal endothelial cells.

Project description:Pyrrolizidine alkaloids induced hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (PA-HSOS) often occurs after consuming herbs or a dietary supplement containing the plant Tu-San-Qi. Limited data exists to identify patients with fatal outcomes for early interventions. We aimed to analyze the predictors for 3-month survival. We retrospectively enrolled PA-HSOS patients in 5 hospitals and extracted data from the onset of PA-HSOS to 36 months. Outcome measurements were 3-month and 36-month survival rates, baseline prognostic predictors for survival, and the effects of anticoagulant therapy. Among 49 enrollees, the median age was 60 and 49% male. At the onset of PA-HSOS, patients with Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) class of A, B, or C were 8.2% (4/49), 42.8% (21/49) and 49.0% (24/49), respectively. None of them received a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt or a liver transplant. The 3-month and 36-month survival rates were 86% and 76%, respectively. Compared to the CTP class A or B, class C at baseline independently predicted lower survival rates at both 3 and 36 months. However, anticoagulation therapy treatment within the first 3 months independently predicted significantly higher survival rates at both time points. CTP class C and anticoagulant therapy were the independent predictors for short-term and long-term survival. Anticoagulant therapy could decrease mortality rate of CTP class C patients. The greatest benefit of anticoagulant evaluated by 3-month survival rate was in patients with CTP class C compared with those without treatment (93% vs 40%, P = .009). There were no bleeding complications reported in patients treated with the anticoagulant.
