Immunophenotyping of Monocyte Migration Markers and Therapeutic Effects of Selenium on IL-6 and IL-1β Cytokine Axes of Blood Mononuclear Cells in Preoperative and Postoperative Coronary Artery Disease Patients. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:7198. [PMID: 37108367 PMCID: PMC10139122 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24087198] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2023] [Revised: 04/05/2023] [Accepted: 04/07/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD) is characterized by underlying chronic vascular inflammation and occlusion in the coronary arteries, where these patients undergo coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Since post-cardiotomy inflammation is a well known phenomenon after CABG, attenuation of this inflammation is required to reduce perioperative morbidity and mortality. In this study, we aimed to phenotype circulating frequencies and intensities of monocyte subsets and monocyte migration markers, respectively, and to investigate the plasma level of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines between preoperative and postoperative CAD patients and later, to intervene the inflammation with sodium selenite. We found a higher amplitude of inflammation, postoperatively, in terms of CCR1high monocytes and significantly increased pro-inflammatory cytokines, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-1RA. Further, in vitro intervention with selenium displayed mitigating effects on the IL-6/STAT-3 axis of mononuclear cells derived from postoperative CAD patients. In addition, in vitro selenium intervention significantly reduced IL-1β production as well as decreased cleaved caspase-1 (p20) activity by preoperative (when stimulated) as well as postoperative CAD mononuclear cells. Though TNF-α exhibited a positive correlation with blood troponin levels in postoperative CAD patients, there was no obvious effect of selenium on the TNF-α/NF-κB axis. In conclusion, anti-inflammatory selenium might be utilized to impede systemic inflammatory cytokine axes to circumvent aggravating atherosclerosis and further damage to the autologous bypass grafts during the post-surgical period.

Water-Soluble Vitamins and Trace Elements Losses during On-Line Hemodiafiltration. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14173454. [PMID: 36079711 PMCID: PMC9458110 DOI: 10.3390/nu14173454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2022] [Revised: 08/15/2022] [Accepted: 08/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Maintenance hemodialysis induces water-soluble vitamins and trace elements losses, which is why recommendations regarding potential supplementation were provided, but mainly based on conventional hemodialysis. This study′s aim was to measure the water–soluble vitamins and trace element losses during one on-line post-dilution hemodiafiltration (HDF) session. Thirty-nine patients under maintenance HDF were enrolled. We used the Theraflux® sampler (Theradial Corp., Orvault, France) to analyze the full session dialysate mass transfer. Blood and dialysate samples were collected before and after one HDF session to measure B1, B2, B6, B9, B12, C vitamins, zinc, and selenium concentrations. Values significantly decreased for B1 (20.2%), B2 (13%), B6 (25.4%), B9 (32.6%), C (66.6%) and selenium (6.7%). No significant differences were found for vitamin B12 and zinc. The dialysate losses per session were 1.12 ± 0.88 mg for vitamin B1, 0.28 ± 0.30 mg for B2, 0.33 ± 0.09 mg for B6, 0.3 ± 0.18 mg for B9, 147.5 ± 145.50 mg for C and 25.75 ± 6.91 mg for zinc. Vitamin B12 and selenium were under detection values. In conclusion, during a standard 4hr-HDF session, we found important losses for vitamin B1, B6, B9, C and zinc, suggesting the need for regular monitoring of plasma levels and systematic supplementation of these compounds.

Abstract
Intradialytic hypertension (iHTN) has been related with an increased risk of mortality, with imbalances in trace elements being frequent in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationships between the levels of blood trace elements and iHTN in MHD patients. A total of 144 MHD patients were enrolled in September, 2019 (66 females; 5616 hemodialysis treatments), with a mean age of 64.33 ± 13.39 years and median vintage of 33.50 (16.25-57.50) months. Patients exhibited an average peridialytic systolic blood pressure (SBP) change of - 4.18 ± 20.22 mm Hg in the next 3 months. Thirty-four (23.6%) patients had persistent iHTN (piHTN). These patients were characterized by older age, higher rate of hypozincemia, and modified Charlson comorbidity score, whereas lower blood zinc and hemoglobin, at the time of their recruitment. No significant difference in the levels of other blood trace elements was observed between groups. A general linear mixed (GLM) model showed that with every mg/L point lower mean blood zinc at baseline, the peridialytic SBP change was increased by 4.524 mm Hg (P < 0.001). Binary logistic model in modulate of the GLM model revealed that the lower level of blood zinc was associated with piHTN (OR = 0.433, 95 % CI 0.295 to 0.637, P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis confirmed both above results. Our study indicated that lower blood zinc was independently associated with piHTN in patients undergoing MHD, but prospective studies with larger population are still needed.

Abstract
The role of the vascular endothelium in inflammation was demonstrated experimentally through biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction and cytoprotection. Selenium is a trace element essential for cell protection against oxidative lesions triggered by reactive oxygen species or inflammatory responses. Preclinical studies have demonstrated a relationship between adhesion molecules as biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction and selenoproteins as biomarkers of selenium status under conditions that mimic different diseases. Most studies in humans indicate an association between selenium deficiency and increased risk of morbidity and mortality, yet the pathophysiology of selenium in endothelial activation remains unknown. Here, we summarize selenium-dependent endothelial function evaluation techniques and focus on the role of selenium in endothelial cytoprotection according to current scientific knowledge. Most studies on the role of selenium in endothelial processes show selenium-dependent endothelial functions and explain how cells and tissues adapt to inflammatory insults. Taken together, these studies show an increase in adhesion molecules and a decrease in the expression of selenoproteins following a decreased exposure to selenium. Few clinical trials have enough methodological quality to be included in meta-analysis on the benefits of selenium supplementation. Furthermore, the methodology adopted in many studies does not consider the relevant findings on the pathophysiology of endothelial dysfunction. Preclinical studies should be more frequently integrated into clinical studies to provide clearer views on the role of selenium status in endothelial cytoprotection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Trace elements are essential substances for the proper physiological and biochemical functioning of the organism. Hemodialysis patients are potentially at risk of deficiency or excess of these elements. The application of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) allows the simultaneous quantification of very small amounts of multiple trace elements. The aim was to measure the serum concentration of copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), selenium (Se), and nickel (Ni), and the whole blood concentration of arsenic (As), lead (Pb), and manganese (Mn), in patients undergoing hemodialysis as well as in controls. METHODS The study was carried out in 57 hemodialysis patients compared with 57 controls with normal renal function. Serum and whole blood samples from the dialysis group were collected before and after hemodialysis sessions and Cu, Zn, Se, Ni, As, Pb and Mn levels were determined using ICP-MS. RESULTS Hemodialysis patients showed significantly lower blood levels of Cu, Zn and Se than controls (p < 0.001) and higher concentrations of Ni, As and Pb (p < 0.0001). The levels of Mn were similar in both groups. After performing hemodialysis, Cu, Zn, Se and Ni concentrations were significantly higher than the pre-hemodialysis levels (p < 0.0001). However, the concentration of As decreased (p < 0.0001) and Pb and Mn levels were not significantly altered after the dialysis session. CONCLUSION Hemodialysis patients are at increased risk of trace elements deficiency (especially for Zn and Se) or excess (Ni) in respect to healthy subjects. Monitoring of blood levels and supplementation of some trace elements may be indicated in patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Abstract
Brazil nut is the richest known food source of selenium. The supplementation with Brazil nut during 3 months was effective in reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, there are no available data on the antioxidant effect after that supplementation. The objective of this work was to determine if the beneficial effects of one Brazil nut supplementation per day during 3 months for the HD patients could be sustained after 12 months. Twenty-nine HD patients (58.6 % men, 51.0 ± 3.3 years) from RenalCor Clinic, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, were followed up 12 months after the supplementation study had finished. The plasma levels of antioxidant substances as selenium, glutathione peroxidase (GPx), 8-isoprostane, 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and cytokines (tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6)) were determined before, after 3 months of supplementation and after 12 months. After 3-months supplementation, cytokines, 8-OHdG and 8-isoprostane plasma levels have decreased and the activity of GPx and selenium plasma levels have increased significantly. Additionally, after 12 months, the values of 8-isoprostane, 8-OHdG and cytokines increased and the activity of GPx and selenium plasma levels decreased significantly. The levels of oxidative stress and inflammation biomarkers after 12 months increased compared to the basal levels. Consequently, it is necessary to motivate patients to adopt different dietary intake patterns.
