Neuraminidase inhibition improves endothelial function in diabetic mice. Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 2023; 325:H1337-H1353. [PMID: 37801046 PMCID: PMC10908409 DOI: 10.1152/ajpheart.00337.2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 09/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023]
Abstract
Neuraminidases cleave sialic acids from glycocalyx structures and plasma neuraminidase activity is elevated in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Therefore, we hypothesize circulating neuraminidase degrades the endothelial glycocalyx and diminishes flow-mediated dilation (FMD), whereas its inhibition restores shear mechanosensation and endothelial function in T2D settings. We found that compared with controls, subjects with T2D have higher plasma neuraminidase activity, reduced plasma nitrite concentrations, and diminished FMD. Ex vivo and in vivo neuraminidase exposure diminished FMD and reduced endothelial glycocalyx presence in mouse arteries. In cultured endothelial cells, neuraminidase reduced glycocalyx coverage. Inhalation of the neuraminidase inhibitor, zanamivir, reduced plasma neuraminidase activity, enhanced endothelial glycocalyx length, and improved FMD in diabetic mice. In humans, a single-arm trial (NCT04867707) of zanamivir inhalation did not reduce plasma neuraminidase activity, improved glycocalyx length, or enhanced FMD. Although zanamivir plasma concentrations in mice reached 225.8 ± 22.0 ng/mL, in humans were only 40.0 ± 7.2 ng/mL. These results highlight the potential of neuraminidase inhibition for ameliorating endothelial dysfunction in T2D and suggest the current Food and Drug Administration-approved inhaled dosage of zanamivir is insufficient to achieve desired outcomes in humans.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This work identifies neuraminidase as a key mediator of endothelial dysfunction in type 2 diabetes that may serve as a biomarker for impaired endothelial function and predictive of development and progression of cardiovascular pathologies associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Data show that intervention with the neuraminidase inhibitor zanamivir at effective plasma concentrations may represent a novel pharmacological strategy for restoring the glycocalyx and ameliorating endothelial dysfunction.

Assessment of power spectral density of microvascular hemodynamics in skeletal muscles at very low and low-frequency via near-infrared diffuse optical spectroscopies. BIOMEDICAL OPTICS EXPRESS 2023; 14:5994-6015.

Abstract
In this work, we used a hybrid time domain near-infrared spectroscopy (TD-NIRS) and diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) device to retrieve hemoglobin and blood flow oscillations of skeletal muscle microvasculature. We focused on very low (VLF) and low-frequency (LF) oscillations (i.e., frequency lower than 0.145 Hz), that are related to myogenic, neurogenic and endothelial activities. We measured power spectral density (PSD) of blood flow and hemoglobin concentration in four muscles (thenar eminence, plantar fascia, sternocleidomastoid and forearm) of 14 healthy volunteers to highlight possible differences in microvascular hemodynamic oscillations. We observed larger PSDs for blood flow compared to hemoglobin concentration, in particular in case of distal muscles (i.e., thenar eminence and plantar fascia). Finally, we compared the PSDs measured on the thenar eminence of healthy subjects with the ones measured on a septic patient in the intensive care unit: lower power in the endothelial-dependent frequency band, and larger power in the myogenic ones were observed in the septic patient, in accordance with previous works based on laser doppler flowmetry.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disturbances associated with sepsis cause hypoperfusion situations, which will negatively impact these patients' prognosis. The aim of haemodynamic monitoring is to guide the detection and correction of this hypoperfusion, and assist in decision making in optimising oxygen transport to tissues, primarily by manipulating cardiac output. This review seeks to summarise the different parameters of haemodynamic monitoring, the objectives of resuscitation, the physiological parameters, and the tools available to us for appropriate cardiac output manipulation.

Abstract
Sepsis and septic shock result from an inadequate host response to an infection, which causes organ dysfunction. The progression of this condition is manifested by the occurrence of successive clinical stages, resulting from the systemic inflammatory response secondary to the activation of different inflammatory mediators, leading to organ dysfunction. There is a high burden of evidence on the role of endotoxin in the pathogenesis of sepsis and its crucial role in triggering the inflammatory response in sepsis caused by gram-negative bacteria. The coagulation cascade activation in sepsis patients is part of the host's adaptive immune response to infection. The endothelium is the main target in sepsis, which is metabolically active and can.

Abstract
Circulatory failure in sepsis is common and places a considerable burden on healthcare systems. It is associated with an increased likelihood of mortality, and timely recognition is a prerequisite to ensure optimum results. While there is consensus that aggressive source control, adequate antimicrobial therapy and hemodynamic management constitute crucial determinants of outcome, discussion remains about the best way to achieve each of these core principles. Sound cardiovascular support rests on tailored fluid resuscitation and vasopressor therapy. To this end, an overarching framework to improve cardiovascular dynamics has been a recurring theme in modern critical care. The object of this review is to examine the nature of one such framework that acknowledges the growing importance of adaptive hemodynamic support combining macro- and microhemodynamic variables to produce adequate tissue perfusion.

Links between Endothelial Glycocalyx Changes and Microcirculatory Parameters in Septic Patients. Life (Basel) 2021; 11:life11080790.

Abstract
The glycocalyx is an endothelial surface layer that is essential for maintaining microvascular homeostasis. Impaired integrity of the endothelial glycocalyx may be directly related to the development of microvascular dysfunction. To explore this hypothesis, we conducted a prospective observational study on adult patients diagnosed with sepsis. The study aimed to evaluate the degree of damage to the glycocalyx and to identify correlations between microcirculatory parameters and glycocalyx thickness based on capillary diameter. Sublingual microcirculation was examined using a handheld Cytocam-incident dark field video microscope. A sidestream dark field video microscope attached to a GlycoCheck monitor was used to determine the perfused boundary regions (PBRs) of sublingual blood vessels grouped by diameter (5-9 μm, 10-19 μm, and 20-25 μm). We identified significant damage to the glycocalyx in sublingual blood vessels of all the aforementioned diameters in septic patients compared to healthy age-matched controls. Furthermore, we found that the PBRs of the smallest capillaries (diameter class 5-9µm) correlated moderately and inversely with both total and perfused blood vessel densities. Collectively, our data suggest that there may be a functional relationship between damage to the endothelial glycocalyx of the smallest capillaries and alterations in the microcirculation observed in response to sepsis.

Abstract
Septic shock is a medical emergency that represents one of the most important underlying causes for presentation to the Emergency Department. Sepsis is defined as organ dysfunction, life-threatening event caused by a deregulated inflammatory host response to infection, with a mortality risk ranging from 10 to 40%. Early sepsis identification is the cornerstone of management and diagnostic imaging can play a pivotal role in this clinical context. The choice of imaging modality depends on several factors, associated with the clinical condition and the presence or absence of localising signs and symptoms. The diagnostic accuracy of contrast-enhanced total-body CT has been well established during septic shock, allowing for a rapid, panoramic, and detailed study of multiple body areas, simultaneously. The aim of this article is to illustrate the controversial CT hypoperfusion complex in patients with septic shock, characterised by the following imaging features: decreased enhancement of the viscera; increased mucosal enhancement; luminal dilation of the small bowel; mural thickening and fluid-filled loops of the small bowel; the halo sign and flattening of the inferior vena cava; reduced aortic diameter; peripancreatic oedema; abnormal parenchymal perfusion; and other controversial findings that are variably associated with each other and reversible during the early stages. Increasing physicians' awareness of the significance of these findings could prompt alternative approaches to the early assessment and management of septic shock. In this perspective, CT imaging represents a useful tool for a complete, rapid and detailed diagnosis of clinically suspected septic shock, which can be used to improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Anesthesia alters microcirculation and tissue oxygen saturation (StO2). We sought to examine changes in StO2 using near-infrared spectroscopy and a vascular occlusion test (VOT) during spinal anesthesia. METHODS This prospective observational study was included 51 patients without comorbidities who underwent elective surgery under spinal anesthesia. We measured the StO2 in the lower extremity during VOT before and after intrathecal injection. RESULTS The baseline, minimum, and maximum StO2 values during VOT significantly increased after intrathecal injection (baseline StO2 from 68.6 ± 7.3% to 77.1 ± 10.1%, minimum StO2 from 39.7 ± 14.9% to 48.8 ± 17.6%, and maximum StO2 from 74.2 ± 7.5% to 80.2 ± 10.0%, all P < 0.0001). The occlusion slope and ischemic stimulus did not significantly change after intrathecal injection. The reperfusion slope was 1.38 ± 0.69%/sec before intrathecal injection and significantly decreased to 1.15 ± 0.61%/sec after intrathecal injection (P = 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Our results showed that despite an increased perfusion, reperfusion rate was significantly decreased by spinal anesthesia. Further studies are required to confirm how these contradictory results (improving oxygenation while reducing microvascular reactivity) actually affect the clinical impact of spinal anesthesia on microvascular function.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The current article reviews recent findings on the monitoring and hemodynamic support of septic shock patients. RECENT FINDINGS The ultimate goal of hemodynamic resuscitation is to restore tissue oxygenation. A multimodal approach combining global and regional markers of tissue hypoxia seems appropriate to guide resuscitation. Several multicenter clinical trials have provided evidence against an aggressive fluid resuscitation strategy. Fluid administration should be personalized and based on the evidence of fluid responsiveness. Dynamic indices have proven to be highly predictive of responsiveness. Recent data suggest that balanced crystalloids may be associated with less renal failure. When fluid therapy is insufficient, a multimode approach with different types of vasopressors has been suggested as an initial approach. Dobutamine remains the firs inotropic option in patients with persistent hypotension and decrease ventricular systolic function. Calcium sensitizer and phosphodiesterase inhibitors may be considered, but evidence is still limited. Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation may be considered in selected unresponsive patients, particularly with myocardial depression, and in a highly experienced center. SUMMARY Resuscitation should be personalized and based on global and regional markers of tissue hypoxia as well as the fluid responsiveness indices. The beneficial effect of multimode approach with different types of vasopressors, remains to be determined.

Abstract
Transcutaneous oxygen pressure reflects the balance between cardiac output, arterial oxygenation, and the metabolic rate of the tissue. In septic shock, it allows a real time assessment of the adequacy of tissue perfusion, and therefore it has been proposed as a non-invasive tool to guide the hemodynamic resuscitation process. However, its value is limited in those situations where cardiac output has been optimized, but tissue dysoxia persists as results of an impairment in oxygen utilization.

Abstract
The natural components of the pomegranate fruit may provide additional benefits for endothelial function and microcirculation. It was hypothesized that supplementation with pomegranate extract might improve glycocalyx properties and microcirculation during acute high-intensity sprint interval cycling exercise. Eighteen healthy and recreationally active male volunteers 22-28 years of age were recruited randomly to the experimental and control groups. The experimental group was supplemented with pomegranate extract 20 mL (720 mg phenolic compounds) for two weeks. At the beginning and end of the study, the participants completed a high-intensity sprint interval cycling-exercise protocol. The microcirculation flow and density parameters, glycocalyx markers, systemic hemodynamics, lactate, and glucose concentration were evaluated before and after the initial and repeated (after 2 weeks supplementation) exercise bouts. There were no significant differences in the microcirculation or glycocalyx over the course of the study (p < 0.05). The lactate concentration was significantly higher in both groups after the initial and repeated exercise bouts, and were significantly higher in the experimental group compared to the control group after the repeated bout: 13.2 (11.9-14.8) vs. 10.3 (9.3-12.7) mmol/L, p = 0.017. Two weeks of supplementation with pomegranate extract does not influence changes in the microcirculation and glycocalyx during acute high-intensity sprint interval cycling-exercise. Although an unexplained rise in blood lactate concentration was observed.

Abstract
Microcirculatory alterations play an important role in the early phase of sepsis. Shedding of the endothelial glycocalyx is regarded as a central pathophysiological mechanism causing microvascular dysfunction, contributing to multiple organ failure and death in sepsis. The objective of this study was to investigate whether endothelial glycocalyx thickness at an early stage in septic patients relates to clinical outcome. We measured the perfused boundary region (PBR), which is inversely proportional to glycocalyx thickness, of sublingual microvessels (5-25 µm) using sidestream dark field imaging. The PBR in 21 patients with sepsis was measured within 24 h of admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). In addition, we determined plasma markers of microcirculatory dysfunction and studied their correlation with PBR and mortality. Endothelial glycocalyx thickness in sepsis was significantly lower for non-survivors as compared with survivors, indicated by a higher PBR of 1.97 [1.85, 2.19]µm compared with 1.76 [1.59, 1.97] µm, P=0.03. Admission PBR was associated with hospital mortality with an area under the curve of 0.778 based on the receiver operating characteristic curve. Furthermore, PBR correlated positively with angiopoietin-2 (rho=0.532, P=0.03), indicative of impaired barrier function. PBR did not correlate with Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation IV (APACHE IV), Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (SOFA score), lactate, syndecan-1, angiopoietin-1 or heparin-binding protein. An increased PBR within the first 24 h after ICU admission is associated with mortality in sepsis. Further research should be aimed at the pathophysiological importance of glycocalyx shedding in the development of multi-organ failure and at therapies attempting to preserve glycocalyx integrity.

Central venous-to-arterial carbon dioxide difference combined with arterial-to-venous oxygen content difference (P cvaCO 2/C avO 2) reflects microcirculatory oxygenation alterations in early septic shock. J Crit Care 2019; 53:162-168.

Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the relationship between central venous-to-arterial carbon dioxide difference (PcvaCO2), PcvaCO2/arterial-venous oxygen content difference ratio (PcvaCO2/CavO2) and the microcirculatory status, evaluated by using near-infrared spectroscopy, in septic shock patients. METHODS Observational study in a 30-bed mixed ICU. Fifty septic shock patients within the first 24 h of ICU admission were studied. After restoration of mean arterial pressure, hemodynamic, metabolic and microcirculatory parameters were simultaneously evaluated. Local tissue oxygen saturation (StO2), and local hemoglobin index (THI) were measured on the thenar eminence by means of near-infrared spectroscopy. A transient vascular occlusion test was performed in order to obtain StO2 deoxygenation rate (DeO2), local oxygen consumption (nirVO2), and reoxgenation rate (ReO2). RESULTS At inclusion, increased PcvaCO2 values were associated with lower StO2 and THI, whereas increased PcvaCO2/CavO2 values were associated with lower DeO2, nirVO2, and ReO2. Multiple regression models confirmed the association between PcvaCO2/CavO2 and nirVO2, while PcvaCO2 was only related to CI, and not to microcirculatory parameters. CONCLUSIONS In a population of early septic shock patients, increases in PcvaCO2 and PcvaCO2/CavO2 reflected different alterations at the microcirculatory level. While PcvaCO2 was related to global flow, the PcvaCO2/CavO2 ratio was associated to impaired local oxygen utilization and diminished microvascular reactivity.

Abstract
Despite the strong decline in the infection-associated mortality since the development of the first antibiotics, infectious diseases are still a major cause of death in the world. With the rising number of antibiotic-resistant pathogens, the incidence of deaths caused by infections may increase strongly in the future. Survival rates in sepsis, which occurs when body response to infections becomes uncontrolled, are still very poor if an adequate therapy is not initiated immediately. Therefore, approaches to monitor the treatment efficacy are crucially needed to adapt therapeutic strategies according to the patient's response. An increasing number of photonic technologies are being considered for diagnostic purpose and monitoring of therapeutic response; however many of these strategies have not been introduced into clinical routine, yet. Here, we review photonic strategies to monitor response to treatment in patients with infectious disease, sepsis, and septic shock. We also include some selected approaches for the development of new drugs in animal models as well as new monitoring strategies which might be applicable to evaluate treatment response in humans in the future.

Beneficial effects of Red Light-Emitting Diode treatment in experimental model of acute lung injury induced by sepsis. Sci Rep 2017; 7:12670.

Abstract
Sepsis is a severe disease with a high mortality index and it is responsible for the development of acute lung injury (ALI). We evaluated the effects of light-emitting diode (LED) on ALI induced by sepsis. Balb-c mice were injected with lipopolysaccharide or saline and then irradiated or not with red LED on their tracheas and lungs for 150 s, 2 and 6 h after LPS injections. The parameters were investigated 24 h after the LPS injections. Red LED treatment reduced neutrophil influx and the levels of interleukins 1β, 17 A and, tumor necrosis factor-α; in addition to enhanced levels of interferon γ in the bronchoalveolar fluid. Moreover, red LED treatment enhanced the RNAm levels of IL-10 and IFN-γ. It also partially reduced the elevated oxidative burst and enhanced apoptosis, but it did not alter the translocation of nuclear factor κB, the expression of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), as well as, oedema or mucus production in their lung tissues. Together, our data has shown the beneficial effects of short treatment with LED on ALI that are caused by gram negative bacterial infections. It is suggested that LED applications are an inexpensive and non-invasive additional treatment for sepsis.
