Abstract
Severe hemorrhagic shock (HS) leads to lung injury, resulting in respiratory insufficiency. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived exosomes have therapeutic effects on the organ injury. HSF1 has been reported to protect the lung against injury. In this study, the role of exosomes from HSF1-overexpressed MSCs (HSF1-EVs) in HS-induced lung injury was investigated. We constructed a mouse model of lung injury by induction with HS and pre-treated it with HSF1-EVs. It was clarified that HSF1-EVs manifested better protective effects on HS-induced lung injury compared with the exosomes derived from control MSCs. Inhalation of HSF1-EVs declined the ratio of wet to dry and total protein concentration in bronchoalveolar lavage fluids. Besides, HSF1-EVs greatly inhibited the production of inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, MCP-1 and HMGB1), and constrained the pulmonary neutrophilic infiltration induced by HS. A reduction of oxidative stress was observed in HSF1-EV-treated mice. HSF1-EVs suppressed the HS-induced apoptosis of lung cell and downregulated Bcl-2 expression, while promoting Bax expression. The key proteins of pulmonary epithelial barrier, E-cadherin, ZO-1 and Occludin, were all upregulated in HS-treated mice after HSF1-EV inhalation, suggesting that HSF1-EVs played a protective role in the epithelial barrier of lung. Additionally, the results of proteomics showed that HSF1 overexpression altered the protein profile of MSC-derived exosomes, which might explain the more significant relief effect of HSF1-EVs on lung injury compared with that of Plasmid-EVs. These new findings demonstrated that the exosomes secreted by HSF1-overexpressed MSCs can be an effective precautionary measure for lung injury induced by HS.

Abstract
Associated with the development of hospital-acquired infections, major traumatic injury results in an immediate and persistent state of systemic immunosuppression, yet the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Detected in the circulation in the minutes, days and weeks following injury, damage associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are a heterogeneous collection of proteins, lipids and DNA renowned for initiating the systemic inflammatory response syndrome. Suggesting additional immunomodulatory roles in the post-trauma immune response, data are emerging implicating DAMPs as potential mediators of post-trauma immune suppression. Discussing the results of in vitro, in vivo and ex vivo studies, the purpose of this review is to summarise the emerging immune tolerising properties of cytosolic, nuclear and mitochondrial-derived DAMPs. Direct inhibition of neutrophil antimicrobial activities, the induction of endotoxin tolerance in monocytes and macrophages, and the recruitment, activation and expansion of myeloid derived suppressor cells and regulatory T cells are examples of some of the immune suppressive properties assigned to DAMPs so far. Crucially, with studies identifying the molecular mechanisms by which DAMPs promote immune suppression, therapeutic strategies that prevent and/or reverse DAMP-induced immunosuppression have been proposed. Approaches currently under consideration include the use of synthetic polymers, or the delivery of plasma proteins, to scavenge circulating DAMPs, or to treat critically-injured patients with antagonists of DAMP receptors. However, as DAMPs share signalling pathways with pathogen associated molecular patterns, and pro-inflammatory responses are essential for tissue regeneration, these approaches need to be carefully considered in order to ensure that modulating DAMP levels and/or their interaction with immune cells does not negatively impact upon anti-microbial defence and the physiological responses of tissue repair and wound healing.

Abstract
Hemorrhage is the leading cause of death in severe trauma injuries. When organs or tissues are subjected to prolonged hypoxia, danger signals-known as damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs)-are released into the intercellular environment. The endothelium is both the target and a major provider of damage-associated molecular patterns, which are directly involved in immuno-inflammatory dysregulation and the associated tissue suffering. Although damage-associated molecular patterns release begins very early after trauma, this release and its consequences continue beyond the initial treatment. Here we review a few examples of damage-associated molecular patterns to illustrate their pathophysiological roles, with emphasis on emerging therapeutic interventions in the context of severe trauma. Therapeutic intervention administered at precise points during damage-associated molecular patterns release may have beneficial effects by calming the inflammatory storm triggered by traumatic hemorrhagic shock.

Abstract
The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by a coronavirus identified in December 2019 has caused a global pandemic. COVID-19 was declared a pandemic in March 2020 and has led to more than 6.3 million deaths. The pandemic has disrupted world travel, economies, and lifestyles worldwide. Although vaccination has been an effective tool to reduce the severity and spread of the disease there is a need for more concerted approaches to fighting the disease. COVID-19 is characterised as a severe acute respiratory syndrome . The severity of the disease is associated with a battery of comorbidities such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, chronic lung disease, and renal disease. These underlying diseases are associated with general cellular stress. Thus, COVID-19 exacerbates outcomes of the underlying conditions. Consequently, coronavirus infection and the various underlying conditions converge to present a combined strain on the cellular response. While the host response to the stress is primarily intended to be of benefit, the outcomes are occasionally unpredictable because the cellular stress response is a function of complex factors. This review discusses the role of the host stress response as a convergent point for COVID-19 and several non-communicable diseases. We further discuss the merits of targeting the host stress response to manage the clinical outcomes of COVID-19.

Abstract
Severe trauma is the principal cause of death among young people worldwide. Hemorrhagic shock is the leading cause of death after severe trauma. Traumatic hemorrhagic shock (THS) is a complex phenomenon associating an absolute hypovolemia secondary to a sudden and significant extravascular blood loss, tissue injury, and, eventually, hypoxemia. These phenomena are responsible of secondary injuries such as coagulopathy, endotheliopathy, microcirculation failure, inflammation, and immune activation. Collectively, these dysfunctions lead to secondary organ failures and multi-organ failure (MOF). The development of MOF after severe trauma is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality, where immunological dysfunction plays a central role. Damage-associated molecular patterns induce an early and exaggerated activation of innate immunity and a suppression of adaptive immunity. Severe complications are associated with a prolonged and dysregulated immune–inflammatory state. The current challenge in the management of THS patients is preventing organ injury, which currently has no etiological treatment available. Modulating the immune response is a potential therapeutic strategy for preventing the complications of THS. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells found in a large number of adult tissues and used in clinical practice as therapeutic agents for immunomodulation and tissue repair. There is growing evidence that their efficiency is mainly attributed to the secretion of a wide range of bioactive molecules and extracellular vesicles (EVs). Indeed, different experimental studies revealed that MSC-derived EVs (MSC-EVs) could modulate local and systemic deleterious immune response. Therefore, these new cell-free therapeutic products, easily stored and available immediately, represent a tremendous opportunity in the emergency context of shock. In this review, the pathophysiological environment of THS and, in particular, the crosstalk between the immune system and organ function are described. The potential therapeutic benefits of MSCs or their EVs in treating THS are discussed based on the current knowledge. Understanding the key mechanisms of immune deregulation leading to organ damage is a crucial element in order to optimize the preparation of EVs and potentiate their therapeutic effect.

Abstract
Acute gout is an inflammatory response induced by monosodium urate (MSU) crystals. HSP60 is a highly conserved stress protein that acts as a cellular "danger" signal for immune reactions. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role and molecular mechanism of HSP60 in gout. HSP60 expression was detected in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and plasma of gout patients. The effect and molecular mechanism of HSP60 in gout were studied in MSU crystals treatment macrophages and C57BL/6 mice. JC-1 probe and MitoSOX Red were used to measure the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS). HSP60 expression was significantly upregulated in the PBMCs and sera of patients with acute gout (AG) compared to those with intercritical gout (IG) or healthy controls (HCs). MSU crystals induced the expression and secretion of HSP60 in the macrophages. HSP60 knockdown or overexpression affects TLR4 and MyD88 expression, IκBα degradation, and the nuclear localization of NF-κB in MSU crystal-stimulated inflammation. Further, HSP60 facilitates MMP collapse and mtROS production and activates the NLRP3 inflammasome in MSU crystal-stimulated macrophages. In MSU crystal-induced arthritis mouse models pretreated with HSP60 vivo-morpholino, paw swelling, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, and inflammatory cell infiltration significantly decreased. Our study reveals that MSU crystal stimulates the expression of HSP60, which accelerates the TLR4-MyD88-NF-κB signaling pathway and exacerbates mitochondrial dysfunction.

Abstract
Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) is a transcription factor involved in the heat shock response and other biological processes. We have unveiled here an important role of HSF1 in acute lung injury (ALI). HSF1 knockout mice were used as a model of lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) induced ALI. Lung damage was aggravated, and macrophage infiltration increased significantly in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissue of HSF-/- mice compared with the damage observed in HSF1+/+ mice. Upon LPS stimulation, HSF-/- mice showed higher levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in the serum, BALF, and lung tissue and increased the expression of MCP-1 and chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 2 (CCR2) on the surface of macrophages compared with those in HSF1+/+. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA) and dual luciferase reporter assays revealed that HSF1 could directly bind to heat shock elements (HSE) in the promoter regions of MCP-1 and its receptor CCR2, thereby inhibiting the expression of both genes. We concluded that HSF1 attenuated LPS-induced ALI in mice by directly suppressing the transcription of MCP-1/CCR2, which in turn reduced macrophage infiltration.

Abstract
The 60-kDa heat shock protein (HSP60) is a chaperone essential for mitochondrial proteostasis ensuring thus sufficient aerobic energy production. In pathological conditions, HSP60 can be translocated from the mitochondria and excreted from the cell. In turn, the extracellular HSP60 has a strong ability to trigger and enhance inflammatory response with marked proinflammatory cytokine induction, which is mainly mediated by Toll-like receptor binding. Previous studies have found increased circulating levels of HSP60 in hypertensive patients, as well as enhanced HSP60 expression and membrane translocation in the hypertrophic myocardium. These observations are of particular interest, since they could provide a possible pathophysiological explanation of the severe course and worse outcome of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection in hypertensive patients, repeatedly reported during the recent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and related to hyperinflammatory response and cytokine storm development during the third phase of the disease. In this regard, pharmacological inhibition of HSP60 could attract attention to potentially ameliorate inappropriate inflammatory reaction in severe COVID-19 patients. Among HSP60 antagonizing drugs, mizoribine is the most intriguing, since it is clinically approved and exerts antiviral activity. However, this topic requires to be further scrutinized.

Abstract
In 1994, the "danger model" argued that adaptive immune responses are driven rather by molecules released upon tissue damage than by the recognition of "strange" molecules. Thus, an alternative to the "self versus non-self recognition model" has been provided. The model, which suggests that the immune system discriminates dangerous from safe molecules, has established the basis for the future designation of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), a term that was coined by Walter G. Land, Seong, and Matzinger. The pathological importance of DAMPs is barely somewhere else evident as in the posttraumatic or post-surgical inflammation and regeneration. Since DAMPs have been identified to trigger specific immune responses and inflammation, which is not necessarily detrimental but also regenerative, it still remains difficult to describe their "friend or foe" role in the posttraumatic immunogenicity and healing process. DAMPs can be used as biomarkers to indicate and/or to monitor a disease or injury severity, but they also may serve as clinically applicable parameters for optimized indication of the timing for, i.e., secondary surgeries. While experimental studies allow the detection of these biomarkers on different levels including cellular, tissue, and circulatory milieu, this is not always easily transferable to the human situation. Thus, in this review, we focus on the recent literature dealing with the pathophysiological importance of DAMPs after traumatic injury. Since dysregulated inflammation in traumatized patients always implies disturbed resolution of inflammation, so-called model of suppressing/inhibiting inducible DAMPs (SAMPs) will be very briefly introduced. Thus, an update on this topic in the field of trauma will be provided.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Sterile and infectious critical illnesses often result in vasoplegic shock and a robust systemic inflammatory response that are similar in presentation. The innate immune system is at the center of the response to both infectious and traumatic insults. Damage-associated molecular patterns are small molecules that are released from stressed or dying cells. Damage-associated molecular patterns activate pattern recognition receptors and coordinate the leading edge of the innate immune response. This review introduces the concept of damage-associated molecular patterns and how they activate a systemic inflammatory response, specifically in trauma, neurologic injury, and infection. It also explores how, when carried to extremes, damage-associated molecular patterns may even perpetuate multisystem organ failure. DATA SOURCES Basic and clinical studies were obtained from a PubMed search through August 2017. STUDY SELECTION Articles considered include original articles, review articles, and conference proceedings. DATA EXTRACTION An analysis of scientific, peer-reviewed data was performed. High quality preclinical and clinical studies adjudicated by the authors were included and summarized. DATA SYNTHESIS Pattern recognition receptors respond to damage-associated molecular patterns and then activate inflammatory pathways. Damage-associated molecular patterns have been linked to the recruitment of sentinel leukocytes and the initiation of the inflammatory cascade. Damage-associated molecular patterns have been linked to many conditions in critical care illnesses. Preclinical models have added insight into how they may mediate distant organ dysfunction. CONCLUSIONS Damage-associated molecular pattern activation and release is an important research for intensive care practitioners. It will add to our understanding of the phase and state of the innate immune response to an insult. Early work is encouraging. However, only with improved understanding of damage-associated molecular pattern activation and function, we can perhaps hope to target damage-associated molecular patterns as diagnostic and/or therapeutic modalities in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical insult and trauma have been shown to cause dysregulation of the immune and inflammatory responses. Interaction of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) with toll-like receptors (TLRs) initiates innate immune response and systemic inflammatory responses. Given that surgical patients produce high levels of circulating damage-associated molecular patterns, we hypothesized that plasma-activated TLR activity would be correlated to injury status and could be used to predict pathological conditions involving tissue injury. METHODS An observational study was performed using samples from a single-institution prospective tissue and data repository from a Level-1 trauma center. In vitro TLR 2, 3, 4, and 9 activation was determined in a TLR reporter assay after isolation of plasma from peripheral blood. We determined correlations between plasma-activated TLR activity and clinical course measures of severity. RESULTS Eighteen patients were enrolled (median Injury Severity Score 15 [interquartile range 10, 23.5]). Trauma resulted in significant elevation in circulation high mobility group box 1 as well as increase of plasma-activated TLR activation (2.8-5.4-fold) compared to healthy controls. There was no correlation between circulating high mobility group box 1 and trauma morbidity; however, the plasma-activated TLR activity was correlated with acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II scores (R square = 0.24-0.38, P < 0.05). Patients who received blood products demonstrated significant increases in the levels of plasma-activated TLRs 2, 3, 4, and 9 and had a trend toward developing systemic inflammatory response syndrome. CONCLUSIONS Further studies examining TLR modulation and signaling in surgical patients may assist in predictive risk modeling and reduction in morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
This review summarizes a short list of currently discussed trauma-induced danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMP). Due to the bivalent character and often pleiotropic effects of a DAMP, it is difficult to describe its "friend or foe" role in post-traumatic inflammation and regeneration, both systemically as well locally in tissues. DAMP can be used as biomarkers to indicate or monitor disease or injury severity, but also may serve as clinically applicable parameters for better indication and timing of surgery. Due to the inflammatory processes at the local tissue level or the systemic level, the precise role of DAMP is not always clear to define. While in vitro and experimental studies allow for the detection of these biomarkers at the different levels of an organism-cellular, tissue, circulation-this is not always easily transferable to the human setting. Increased knowledge exploring the dual role of DAMP after trauma, and concentrating on their nuclear functions, transcriptional targets, release mechanisms, cellular sources, multiple functions, their interactions and potential therapeutic targeting is warranted.

The role of attenuated redox and heat shock protein responses in the age-related decline in skeletal muscle mass and function. Essays Biochem 2017; 61:339-348. [PMID: 28698308 DOI: 10.1042/ebc20160088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2017] [Revised: 04/29/2017] [Accepted: 05/11/2017] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The loss of muscle mass and weakness that accompanies ageing is a major contributor to physical frailty and loss of independence in older people. A failure of muscle to adapt to physiological stresses such as exercise is seen with ageing and disruption of redox regulated processes and stress responses are recognized to play important roles in theses deficits. The role of redox regulation in control of specific stress responses, including the generation of heat shock proteins (HSPs) by muscle appears to be particularly important and affected by ageing. Transgenic and knockout studies in experimental models in which redox and HSP responses were modified have demonstrated the importance of these processes in maintenance of muscle mass and function during ageing. New data also indicate the potential of these processes to interact with and influence ageing in other tissues. In particular the roles of redox signalling and HSPs in regulation of inflammatory pathways appears important in their impact on organismal ageing. This review will briefly indicate the importance of this area and demonstrate how an understanding of the manner in which redox and stress responses interact and how they may be controlled offers considerable promise as an approach to ameliorate the major functional consequences of ageing of skeletal muscle (and potentially other tissues) in man.

Abstract
The cardiac myocyte differs strikingly from the specialized cells of the immune system, which has two different responses to invading organisms and tissue damage. Adaptive or acquired immunity generates highly specific antibodies in response to threats and is an essential component of immunity; however, adaptive immunity can take 4-7 days to mobilize, and a more primitive response, innate immunity, fills the gap. Innate immunity is expressed in complex and in primitive life forms. Specialized receptors, Toll-like receptors (TLRs), which are widely distributed throughout different tissues recognize danger signals and rapidly respond with the release of noxious substances, such as TNFα. The problem is that many endogenous molecules have been found to act as ligands for specific TLRs, and when these molecules are released into the extracellular environment, they can cause problems by activating innate immunity and an inflammatory response. In cardiac myocytes heat shock protein (HSP)60 can activate TLR4, as can HMGB1, and this type of response can amplify the response to ischemia/reperfusion leading to increased cell and tissue injury. Activation of TLRs can potentially amplify chronic, inflammatory diseases, such as ischemic heart failure. Thus, it is important to understand the regulation of the TLRs and their downstream effects. This chapter will focus on the TLRs and cardiac myocytes.

Abstract
Heat-shock protein (Hsp)10 is the co-chaperone for Hsp60 inside mitochondria, but it also resides outside the organelle. Variations in its levels and intracellular distribution have been documented in pathological conditions, e.g. cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Here, we show that Hsp10 in COPD undergoes changes at the molecular and subcellular levels in bronchial cells from human specimens and derived cell lines, intact or subjected to stress induced by cigarette smoke extract (CSE). Noteworthy findings are: (i) Hsp10 occurred in nuclei of epithelial and lamina propria cells of bronchial mucosa from non-smokers and smokers; (ii) human bronchial epithelial (16HBE) and lung fibroblast (HFL-1) cells, in vitro, showed Hsp10 in the nucleus, before and after CSE exposure; (iii) CSE stimulation did not increase the levels of Hsp10 but did elicit qualitative changes as indicated by molecular weight and isoelectric point shifts; and (iv) Hsp10 nuclear levels increased after CSE stimulation in HFL-1, indicating cytosol to nucleus migration, and although Hsp10 did not bind DNA, it bound a DNA-associated protein.

Abstract
The unique characteristics of pulmonary circulation and alveolar-epithelial capillary-endothelial barrier allow for maintenance of the air-filled, fluid-free status of the alveoli essential for facilitating gas exchange, maintaining alveolar stability, and defending the lung against inhaled pathogens. The hallmark of pathophysiology in acute respiratory distress syndrome is the loss of the alveolar capillary permeability barrier and the presence of protein-rich edema fluid in the alveoli. This alteration in permeability and accumulation of fluid in the alveoli accompanies damage to the lung epithelium and vascular endothelium along with dysregulated inflammation and inappropriate activity of leukocytes and platelets. In addition, there is uncontrolled activation of coagulation along with suppression of fibrinolysis and loss of surfactant. These pathophysiological changes result in the clinical manifestations of acute respiratory distress syndrome, which include hypoxemia, radiographic opacities, decreased functional residual capacity, increased physiologic deadspace, and decreased lung compliance. Resolution of acute respiratory distress syndrome involves the migration of cells to the site of injury and re-establishment of the epithelium and endothelium with or without the development of fibrosis. Most of the data related to acute respiratory distress syndrome, however, originate from studies in adults or in mature animals with very few studies performed in children or juvenile animals. The lack of studies in children is particularly problematic because the lungs and immune system are still developing during childhood and consequently the pathophysiology of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome may differ in significant ways from that seen in acute respiratory distress syndrome in adults. This article describes what is known of the pathophysiologic processes of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome as we know it today while also presenting the much greater body of evidence on these processes as elucidated by adult and animal studies. It is also our expressed intent to generate enthusiasm for larger and more in-depth investigations of the mechanisms of disease and repair specific to children in the years to come.

Abstract
Danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are host-derived molecules that can function to regulate the activation of pathogen recognition receptors (PRRs). These molecules play a critical role in modulating the lung injury response. DAMPs originate from multiple sources, including injured and dying cells, the extracellular matrix, or exist as immunomodulatory proteins within the airspace and interstitium. DAMPs can function as either toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists or antagonists, and can modulate both TLR and nod-like receptor (NLR) signalling cascades. Collectively, this diverse group of molecules may represent important therapeutic targets in the prevention and/or treatment of acute lung injury (ALI) and its more severe form, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

Abstract
Exosomes, which are 50- to 100-nm-diameter lipid vesicles, have been implicated in intercellular communication, including transmitting malignancy, and as a way for viral particles to evade detection while spreading to new cells. Previously, we demonstrated that adult cardiac myocytes release heat shock protein (HSP)60 in exosomes. Extracellular HSP60, when not in exosomes, causes cardiac myocyte apoptosis via the activation of Toll-like receptor 4. Thus, release of HSP60 from exosomes would be damaging to the surrounding cardiac myocytes. We hypothesized that 1) pathological changes in the environment, such as fever, change in pH, or ethanol consumption, would increase exosome permeability; 2) different exosome inducers would result in different exosomal protein content; 3) ethanol at "physiological" concentrations would cause exosome release; and 4) ROS production is an underlying mechanism of increased exosome production. We found the following: first, exosomes retained their protein cargo under different physiological/pathological conditions, based on Western blot analyses. Second, mass spectrometry demonstrated that the protein content of cardiac exosomes differed significantly from other types of exosomes in the literature and contained cytosolic, sarcomeric, and mitochondrial proteins. Third, ethanol did not affect exosome stability but greatly increased the production of exosomes by cardiac myocytes. Fourth, ethanol- and hypoxia/reoxygenation-derived exosomes had different protein content. Finally, ROS inhibition reduced exosome production but did not completely inhibit it. In conclusion, exosomal protein content is influenced by the cell source and stimulus for exosome formation. ROS stimulate exosome production. The functions of exosomes remain to be fully elucidated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is frequently observed after traumatic injury. The response is sterile and the activating stimulus is tissue damage. Endogenous molecules, called alarmins, are reputed to be released by injured tissues but the precise identity of these mediators is unclear. This review summarizes current preclinical and clinical evidence for trauma alarmins and their role in innate immune activation. METHODS A comprehensive literature review of putative alarmins in tissue damage after traumatic injury was conducted. RESULTS The presence of SIRS at admission is an independent predictor of mortality after trauma. The primary initiators of the human immune response are unclear. Several endogenous substances display alarmin characteristics in vitro. Preclinical studies demonstrate that blockade of certain endogenous substances can reduce adverse clinical sequelae after traumatic injury. Human evidence for trauma alarmins is extremely limited. CONCLUSION The magnitude of acute inflammation is predictive of outcome after trauma, suggesting that an early opportunity for immune modulation may exist. An understanding of the mechanisms of innate immune activation following trauma may lead to new therapeutic agents and improved patient survival.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To define systemic release kinetics of a panel of cytokines and heat shock proteins in porcine polytrauma/hemorrhage models and to evaluate whether they could be useful as early trauma biomarkers. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Research laboratory. SUBJECTS Twenty-one Yorkshire pigs. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Pigs underwent polytrauma (femur fractures/lung contusion, P), hemorrhage (mean arterial pressure 25-30 mm Hg, H), polytrauma plus hemorrhage (P/H), or sham procedure (S). Plasma was obtained at baseline, in 5- to 15-min intervals during a 60-min shock period without intervention, and in 60- to 120-min intervals during fluid resuscitation for up to 300 min. Plasma was assayed for interleukin-1β, interleukin-4, interleukin-5, interleukin-6, interleukin-8, interleukin-10, interleukin-12/interleukin-23p40, interleukin-13, interleukin-17, interleukin-18, interferonγ, transforming growth factor-β, tumor necrosis factor-α, heat shock protein 40, heat shock protein 70, and heat shock protein 90 by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. All animals after S, P, and H survived (n = 5/group). Three of six animals after P/H died. Interleukin-10 increased during shock after P and this increase was attenuated after H. Tumor necrosis factor-α increased during the shock period after P, H, and also after S. P/H abolished the systemic interleukin-10 and tumor necrosis factor-α release and resulted in 20% to 30% increased levels of interleukin-6 during shock. As fluid resuscitation was initiated, tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-10 levels decreased after P, H, and P/H; heat shock protein 70 increased after P; and interleukin-6 levels remained elevated after P/H and also increased after P and S. CONCLUSIONS Differential regulation of the systemic cytokine release after polytrauma and/or hemorrhage, in combination with the effects of resuscitation, can explain the variability and inconsistent association of systemic cytokine/heat shock protein levels with clinical variables in trauma patients. Insults of major severity (P/H) partially suppress the systemic inflammatory response. The plasma concentrations of the measured cytokines/heat shock proteins do not reflect injury severity or physiological changes in porcine trauma models and are unlikely to be able to serve as useful trauma biomarkers in patients.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs of approximately 22 nucleotides in length which regulate gene expression negatively and play important roles in many pathological processes. It has been demonstrated that circulating miRNAs hold promise to serve as practicable molecular markers for diverse physiological and pathological conditions. In this investigation, we chose partial hepatectomy (PH) as traumatic injury model. There were significantly differential expression of miRNAs in rat serum post-traumatic injury (21 miRNAs were more than twofold up-regulated). Especially, the expression of miR-9 showed the highest up-regulated (>70-fold), and it possessed the characteristics of biomarker that was more sensitive than aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase and C-reactive protein for traumatic liver injury. There was also a prominent increase in the expression levels of miR-9 in different brain areas after traumatic injury. Our data suggest that serum miR-9 may serve as promising biomarker for traumatic injury with high sensitivity. Furthermore, these findings may help to elucidate the complex network which mediates stress response to traumatic injury.

Abstract
Background It is increasingly clear that some heat shock proteins (Hsps) play a role in inflammation. Here, we report results showing participation of Hsp60 in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD), as indicated by data from both in vivo and in vitro analyses. Methods and Results Bronchial biopsies from patients with stable COPD, smoker controls with normal lung function, and non-smoker controls were studied. We quantified by immunohistochemistry levels of Hsp10, Hsp27, Hsp40, Hsp60, Hsp70, Hsp90, and HSF-1, along with levels of inflammatory markers. Hsp10, Hsp40, and Hsp60 were increased during progression of disease. We found also a positive correlation between the number of neutrophils and Hsp60 levels. Double-immunostaining showed that Hsp60-positive neutrophils were significantly increased in COPD patients. We then investigated in vitro the effect on Hsp60 expression in bronchial epithelial cells (16HBE) caused by oxidative stress, a hallmark of COPD mucosa, which we induced with H2O2. This stressor determined increased levels of Hsp60 through a gene up-regulation mechanism involving NFkB-p65. Release of Hsp60 in the extracellular medium by the bronchial epithelial cells was also increased after H2O2 treatment in the absence of cell death. Conclusions This is the first report clearly pointing to participation of Hsps, particularly Hsp60, in COPD pathogenesis. Hsp60 induction by NFkB-p65 and its release by epithelial cells after oxidative stress can have a role in maintaining inflammation, e.g., by stimulating neutrophils activity. The data open new scenarios that might help in designing efficacious anti-inflammatory therapies centered on Hsp60 and applicable to COPD.

Abstract
Background Trauma is one of the leading causes of death in young adult patients. Many pre-clinical and clinical studies attempt to investigate the immunological pathways involved, however the true mediators remain to be elucidated. Herein, we attempt to describe the immunologic response to systemic trauma in the context of the Danger model. Data Sources A literature search using PubMed was used to identify pertinent articles describing the Danger model in relation to trauma. Conclusions Our knowledge of Danger signals in relation to traumatic injury is still limited. Danger/alarmin signals are the most proximal molecules in the immune response that have many possibilities for effector function in the innate and acquired immune systems. Having a full understanding of these molecules and their pathways would give us the ability to intervene at such an early stage and may prove to be more effective in blunting the post-injury inflammatory response unlike previously failed cytokine experiments.

Abstract
Apoptosis is an important contributor to the pathophysiology of lung diseases such as acute lung injury (ALI) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Furthermore, the cellular environment of these acute and chronic lung diseases favors the delayed clearance of apoptotic cells. This dysfunctional efferocytosis predisposes to the release of endogenous ligands from dying cells. These so-called damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) play an important role in the stimulation of innate immunity as well as in the induction of adaptive immunity, potentially against autoantigens. In this review, we explore the role of apoptosis in ALI and COPD, with particular attention to the contribution of DAMP release in augmenting the inflammatory response in these disease states.

Abstract
We recently reported that heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) via TLR4 signaling activates B cells and induces them to proliferate and secrete IL-10. We now report that HSP60 inhibits mouse B cell apoptosis, spontaneous or induced by dexamethasone or anti-IgM activation. Unlike HSP60 enhancement of B cell proliferation and IL-10 secretion, TLR4 signaling was not required for the inhibition of apoptosis by HSP60; nevertheless, MyD88 was essential. Inhibition of apoptosis by HSP60 was associated with up-regulation of the antiapoptotic molecules Bcl-2, Bcl-x(L), and survivin, maintenance of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential, and inhibition of caspase-3 activation. Moreover, B cells incubated with HSP60 manifested prolonged survival following transfer into recipient mice. These results extend the varied role of HSP60 in the innate regulation of the adaptive immune response.

Abstract
Background Ozone is a major component of air pollution. Exposure to this powerful oxidizing agent can cause or exacerbate many lung conditions, especially those involving innate immunity. Surfactant protein-A (SP-A) plays many roles in innate immunity by participating directly in host defense as it exerts opsonin function, or indirectly via its ability to regulate alveolar macrophages and other innate immune cells. The mechanism(s) responsible for ozone-induced pathophysiology, while likely related to oxidative stress, are not well understood. Methods We employed 2-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE), a discovery proteomics approach, coupled with MALDI-ToF/ToF to compare the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) proteomes in wild type (WT) and SP-A knockout (KO) mice and to assess the impact of ozone or filtered air on the expression of BAL proteins. Using the PANTHER database and the published literature most identified proteins were placed into three functional groups. Results We identified 66 proteins and focused our analysis on these proteins. Many of them fell into three categories: defense and immunity; redox regulation; and protein metabolism, modification and chaperones. In response to the oxidative stress of acute ozone exposure (2 ppm; 3 hours) there were many significant changes in levels of expression of proteins in these groups. Most of the proteins in the redox group were decreased, the proteins involved in protein metabolism increased, and roughly equal numbers of increases and decreases were seen in the defense and immunity group. Responses between WT and KO mice were similar in many respects. However, the percent change was consistently greater in the KO mice and there were more changes that achieved statistical significance in the KO mice, with levels of expression in filtered air-exposed KO mice being closer to ozone-exposed WT mice than to filtered air-exposed WT mice. Conclusion We postulate that SP-A plays a role in reactive oxidant scavenging in WT mice and that its absence in the KO mice in the presence or absence of ozone exposure results in more pronounced, and presumably chronic, oxidative stress.

Heat shock protein 60 expression in heart, liver and kidney of broilers exposed to high temperature. Res Vet Sci 2008; 86:533-8. [PMID: 18951595 DOI: 10.1016/j.rvsc.2008.09.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2007] [Revised: 08/14/2008] [Accepted: 09/02/2008] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the expression and localization of HSP60 in the heart, liver, and kidney of acutely heat-stressed broilers at various stressing times. The plasma creatine kinase (CK) and glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT) concentrations statistic increased following heat stress. After 2h of heat stress, the tissues showed histopathological changes. Hsp60 expressed mainly in the cytoplasm of parenchyma cells heat stress. The intensity of the cytoplasmic staining varied and exhibited an organ-specific distribution pattern. Hsp60 levels in the hearts of heat-stressed chickens gradually increased at 1h (p<0.05) and peaked (p<0.05) at 5h; Hsp60 levels in the liver gradually decreased at 3h (p<0.05); Hsp60 levels in the kidney had no fluctuation. It is suggested that Hsp60 expression is tissue-specific and this may be linked to tissue damage in response to heat stress. The Hsp60 level is distinct in diverse tissues, indicating that Hsp60 may exert its protective effect by a tissue- and time-specific mechanism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion can be associated with acute lung injury. Alveolar epithelial type II cells (ATII) play an important role in maintaining lung homeostasis in acute lung injury. DESIGN To study potentially new mechanisms of hepatic ischemia-reperfusion-induced lung injury, we examined how liver ischemia-reperfusion altered the proteome of ATII. SETTING Laboratory investigation. SUBJECTS Spontaneously breathing male Zucker rats. INTERVENTIONS Rats were anesthetized with isoflurane. The vascular supply to the left and medial lobe of the liver was clamped for 75 mins and then reperfused. Sham-operated rats were used as controls. After 8 hrs, rats were killed. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Bronchoalveolar lavage and differential cell counts were performed, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha and cytokine-induced neutrophil chemotactic factor-1 in plasma were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. ATII were isolated, lysed, tryptically digested, and labeled using isobaric tags (iTRAQ). The samples were fractionated by cation exchange chromatography, separated by high-performance liquid-chromatography, and identified using electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. Spectra were interrogated and quantified using ProteinProspector. Quantitative proteomics provided quantitative data for 94 and 97 proteins in the two groups. Significant changes in ATII protein content included 30% to 40% increases in adenosine triphosphate synthases, adenosine triphosphate/adenosine diphosphate translocase, and catalase (all p < .001). Following liver ischemia-reperfusion, there was also a significant increase in the percentage of neutrophils in bronchoalveolar lavage (48% +/- 26%) compared with sham-operated controls (5% +/- 3%) (p < .01), and plasma tumor necrosis factor-alpha levels were also significantly increased. CONCLUSIONS The proteins identified by quantitative proteomics indicated significant changes in moderators of cell metabolism and host defense in ATII. These findings provide new insights into possible mechanisms responsible for hepatic ischemia-reperfusion-related acute lung injury and suggest that ATII cells in the lung sense and respond to hepatic injury.

Abstract
The gastrointestinal tract is the preferred route for nutritional support in hospitalized patients. Patients with a functioning gastrointestinal tract, including those with pancreatitis or inflammatory bowel disease and those receiving chemotherapy, should be fed enterally. Parenteral nutrition (PN) should be limited to patients with gastrointestinal failure, including those with short gut syndrome, high-output fistula, prolonged ileus, or bowel obstruction. PN is associated with numerous complications, most notably increased risk of serious infection. Emerging data suggest that immunologic complications of PN may result from hyperglycemia and use of n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids. Safety may be improved with a low-calorie formula and ensuring tight glycemic control with an insulin protocol. A lipid emulsion containing fish oil, olive oil, or both should replace soybean-containing emulsions. Supplemental glutamine, 0.2 g/kg/d to 0.5 g/kg/d, has been shown to reduce the risk of infection and to improve glycemic control.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins are generally regarded as intracellular proteins acting as molecular chaperones; however, Hsp72 is also detected in the extracellular compartment. Hsp72 has been identified in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of patients with acute lung injury. To address whether Hsp72 directly activated airway epithelium, human bronchial epithelial cells (16HBE14o-) were treated with recombinant Hsp72. Hsp72 induced a dose-dependent increase in IL-8 expression, which was inhibited by the NF-kappaB inhibitor parthenolide. Hsp72 induced activation of NF-kappaB, as evidenced by NF-kappaB trans-activation and by p65 RelA and p50 NF-kappaB1 binding to DNA. Endotoxin contamination of the Hsp72 preparation was not responsible for these effects. Next, BALB/c mice were challenged with a single intratracheal inhalation of Hsp72 and killed 4 h later. Hsp72 induced significant up-regulation of KC, TNF-alpha, neutrophil recruitment, and myeloperoxidase in the BALF. A similar challenge with Hsp72 in TLR4 mutant mice did not stimulate the inflammatory response, stressing the importance of TLR4 in Hsp72-mediated lung inflammation. Last, cultured mouse tracheal epithelial cells (MTEC) from BALB/c and TLR4 mutant and wild-type mice were treated ex vivo with Hsp72. Hsp72 induced a significant increase in KC expression from BALB/c and wild-type MTEC in an NF-kappaB-dependent manner; however, TLR4 mutant MTEC had minimal cytokine release. Taken together, these data suggest that Hsp72 is released and biologically active in the BALF and can regulate airway epithelial cell cytokine expression in a TLR4 and NF-kappaB-dependent mechanism.

Abstract
Severe injury may lead to immunosuppression, multiple organ failure, and death. The aim of the study was to investigate the direct impact of soft tissue destruction on the development of trauma-associated immunomodulation. Hip surgery was considered to represent an isolated soft tissue trauma that allowed for the examination of changes taking place locally at the site of trauma or systemically with regard to monocyte function and leukocyte redistribution. Peripheral blood and wound fluid collected from the drains of 21 patients after hip surgery were analyzed to determine the cellular composition and/or the responsiveness of mononuclear cells (MNCs) to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Different factors present in the wound fluids were tested for their capacity to modulate the MNC of healthy individuals with regard to cytokine and chemokine secretion. We found that various factors, including heat-shock protein (HSP) 60 and HSP70, were locally released at the site of soft tissue trauma and could be detected in wound fluids. The wound fluid-derived MNC (but not the peripheral blood-derived MNC) showed an impaired capacity to release TNF-alpha after LPS stimulation. Cell-free wound fluid suppressed in healthy individuals the LPS-induced TNF-alpha secretion by MNC. After surgery, granulocytosis was found in peripheral blood and in wound fluids, but monocytopenia was restricted to wound fluids. In parallel, wound fluids induced in healthy individuals the release by MNC of distinct chemokines specific for granulocytes and monocytes. These wound fluid-mediated effects of TNF-alpha suppression and chemokine induction could be mimicked by recombinant human HSP70 and, in part, by HSP60. Thus, tissue-derived factors, such as HSP70 released after injury, suppress monocyte function and, therefore, might favor the development of immunosuppression after severe injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heat shock proteins (HSP) function as molecular chaperones, participating in protein folding and maturation throughout the cell. Serum HSPs may correlate with acute lung injury. Pericytes are perivascular cells located abluminally from endothelial cells, and play a regulatory role in capillary leak. It is our hypothesis that pericytes express HSP 60 and HSP 70, and these HSPs are up-regulated in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). METHODS Rat microvascular lung pericytes were isolated and cultured. Cells from passages three to five were used and treated with LPS (control, 10 ng/mL, and 100 ng/mL) for either 4 or 18 h. Immunoblotting and real-time PCR were used to analyze the presence and quantity of HSP 60 and HSP 70. RESULTS Immunoblotting revealed the presence of HSP 60 and HSP 70 in control pericytes. After 4 h of treatment with LPS (10 ng/mL and 100 ng/mL), no increase in protein expression of HSP 60 or HSP 70 was seen. However, after 18 h an increase in protein expression of HSP 60 and HSP 70 was seen. Real-time PCR demonstrated the presence of HSP 60 mRNA and HSP 70 mRNA in control pericytes. An increase in mRNA was seen after 18 h of LPS treatment, but not after 4 h. CONCLUSIONS This study provides the first in vitro evidence that rat lung pericytes express HSP 60 and HSP 70. HSP 60 and HSP 70 are up-regulated after 18 h of LPS exposure. Pericyte heat shock protein expression may contribute to the lung's response seen in sepsis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND [corrected] Severe injury leads to a severe deterioration of the patients' immune response. The changes of the immune response after severe injury include a broad range of immune functions and may result in a status of immunosuppression, which could favor infectious complications. Therefore, immunostimulating therapies have been introduced in the therapy for severely injured patients in clinical and experimental settings. OBJECTIVES The article summarizes actual immunomodulating approaches in the treatment of trauma patients and therapeutic strategies avoiding additional immune deteriorations. RESULTS Examples for an immunostimulating approach in trauma patients are interferon gamma and the granulocyte macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), which are summarized in this review in detail. However, the effect of such an interference in the patients' immune response with all its different cellular targets is not yet clearly understood, and most studies focus on the reaction of circulating monocytes. In addition, further immunomodulating strategies, including nutritional support, are addressed. However, clinically established therapeutic immunomodulating strategies in trauma care so far do not exist. The impact of the accidental and also an additional surgical trauma on the immune response has been clearly demonstrated. Therefore, the idea of a "damage control orthopedic surgery" (DCOS) is not only necessary to prevent further deterioration of the homeostasis of, e.g., the coagulating system, but is also desirable in terms of minimizing the burden on the immune system. In addition, also the timing of secondary surgical treatment in trauma patient care should include an evaluation of the immune response, although the most reliable markers still need to be identified. CONCLUSION Immunomodulating therapies in trauma patients exist on an experimental level with inconsistent results. The general management of trauma patients includes strategies that have been developed also on the basis of immunological considerations.

Abstract
All cells respond to stress through the activation of primitive, evolutionarily conserved genetic programs that maintain homeostasis and assure cell survival. Stress adaptation, which is known in the literature by a myriad of terms, including tolerance, desensitization, conditioning, and reprogramming, is a common paradigm found throughout nature, in which a primary exposure of a cell or organism to a stressful stimulus (e.g., heat) results in an adaptive response by which a second exposure to the same stimulus produces a minimal response. More interesting is the phenomenon of cross-tolerance, by which a primary exposure to a stressful stimulus results in an adaptive response whereby the cell or organism is resistant to a subsequent stress that is different from the initial stress (i.e., exposure to heat stress leading to resistance to oxidant stress). The heat shock response is one of the more commonly described examples of stress adaptation and is characterized by the rapid expression of a unique group of proteins collectively known as heat shock proteins (also commonly referred to as stress proteins). The expression of heat shock proteins is well described in both whole lungs and in specific lung cells from a variety of species and in response to a variety of stressors. More importantly, in vitro data, as well as data from various animal models of acute lung injury, demonstrate that heat shock proteins, especially Hsp27, Hsp32, Hsp60, and Hsp70 have an important cytoprotective role during lung inflammation and injury.

Abstract
Immunohistochemical investigation of the respiratory tract and lungs of 63 fire victims revealed a statistically significant enhanced expression of heat-shock protein 70 (Hsp70) in the epiglottis, the trachea, and the main and the peripheral bronchi compared with a control group. In the fire victims, a strong expression of Hsp70 was discernible not only particularly in the vessels but also in seromucous secretory cells, ciliated epithelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and alveolar cells. The results suggest a vital or supravital reaction due to the inhalation of hot fire fumes.
