A Data-Driven Approach to Quantifying Immune States in Sepsis07:42

A Data-Driven Approach to Quantifying Immune States in Sepsis

482
This study investigates the immune condition in sepsis by analyzing the quantitative relationships among white blood cells, lymphocytes, and neutrophils in sepsis patients and healthy controls using data visualization analysis and three-dimensional numerical fitting to establish a mathematical model.

A Preclinical Model of Sepsis-Induced Myopathy with Disuse in Mice

1.4K
This murine model combines a septic insult with hindlimb muscle disuse to recapitulate the bedridden feature of the typical septic patient. The model represents a significant departure from previous models to study muscle dysfunction in sepsis and is a reproducible approach to addressing therapeutic strategies to treat this...

Area of Science:

  • Microbiology
  • Immunology
  • Molecular Biology

Background:

  • Sepsis and septic shock are leading causes of death in intensive care units.
  • Cell-endothelial cell interactions are critical in sepsis-induced inflammation.
  • Sirtuins (SIRTs) are proteins that epigenetically regulate inflammation, with prior studies focusing on SIRT1, SIRT3, and SIRT6.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the role of Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) in sepsis-related microvascular inflammation.
  • To determine how SIRT2 affects cellular adhesion and survival during sepsis.

Main Methods:

  • Sepsis was induced in wild-type (WT), SIRT2 knockout (SIRT2KO), and SIRT2 overexpressing (SIRT2KI) mice using cecal ligation and puncture (CLP).
  • Leukocyte/platelet adhesion was assessed using intravital microscopy.
  • Expression of E-selectin and ICAM-1 adhesion molecules in the small intestine was analyzed via immunohistochemistry (IHC).
  • Seven-day survival rates were compared among the different mouse groups.

Main Results:

  • SIRT2 knockout mice exhibited exaggerated cellular adhesion in the small intestine during sepsis compared to WT mice.
  • SIRT2 overexpressing mice showed attenuated cellular adhesion.
  • E-selectin and ICAM-1 expression were increased in SIRT2KO mice and decreased in SIRT2KI mice relative to WT sepsis mice.
  • Seven-day survival rates were reduced in SIRT2KO mice and increased in SIRT2KI mice.

Conclusions:

  • SIRT2 significantly modulates microvascular inflammation in the context of sepsis.
  • Targeting SIRT2 influences cellular adhesion and survival outcomes in sepsis.
