Traumatic injury pattern is of equal relevance as injury severity for experimental (poly)trauma modeling. Sci Rep 2019; 9:5706. [PMID: 30952899 PMCID: PMC6450898 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-42085-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2018] [Accepted: 03/21/2019] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
This study aims to elaborate the relevance of trauma severity and traumatic injury pattern in different multiple and/or polytrauma models by comparing five singular trauma to two different polytrauma (PT) models with high and one multiple trauma (MT) model with low injury-severity score (ISS). The aim is to provide a baseline for reducing animal harm according to 3Rs by providing less injury as possible in polytrauma modeling. Mice were randomly assigned to 10 groups: controls (Ctrl; n = 15), Sham (n = 15); monotrauma groups: hemorrhagic shock (HS; n = 15), thoracic trauma (TxT; n = 18), osteotomy with external fixation (Fx; n = 16), bilateral soft tissue trauma (bSTT; n = 16) or laparotomy (Lap; n = 16); two PT groups: PT I (TxT + HS + Fx; ISS = 18; n = 18), PT II (TxT + HS + Fx + Lap; ISS = 22; n = 18), and a MT group (TxT + HS + bSTT + Lap, ISS = 13; n = 18). Activity and mortality were assessed. Blood gas analyses and organ damage markers were determined after 6 h. Significant mortality occurred in TxT, PT and MT (11.7%). Activity decreased significantly in TxT, HS, both polytrauma and MT vs. Ctrl/Sham. PT-groups and MT had significantly decreased activity vs. bsTT, Lap or Fx. MT had significantly lower pCO2vs. Ctrl/Sham, Lap or bsTT. Transaminases increased significantly in PT-groups and MT vs. Ctrl, Sham or monotrauma. Traumatic injury pattern is of comparable relevance as injury severity for experimental multiple or (poly)trauma modeling.

Abstract
During the occurrence and development of injury (trauma, hemorrhagic shock, ischemia and hypoxia), the neuroendocrine and immune system act as a prominent navigation leader and possess an inter-system crosstalk between the reciprocal information dissemination. The fundamental reason that neuroendocrinology and immunology could mix each other and permeate toward the field of traumatology is owing to their same biological languages or chemical information molecules (hormones, neurotransmitters, neuropeptides, cytokines and their corresponding receptors) shared by the neuroendocrine and immune systems. The immune system is not only modulated by the neuroendocrine system, but also can modulate the biological functions of the neuroendocrine system. The interactive linkage of these three systems precipitates the complicated space-time patterns for the courses of traumatic inflammation. Recently, compelling evidence indicates that the network linkage pattern that initiating agents of neuroendocrine responses, regulatory elements of immune cells and effecter targets for immune regulatory molecules arouse the resistance mechanism disorders, which supplies the beneficial enlightenment for the diagnosis and therapy of traumatic complications from the view of translational medicine. Here we review the alternative protective and detrimental roles as well as possible mechanisms of the neuroendocrine immune responses in traumatic inflammation.

Abstract
To investigate the effect of noradrenaline (NE) on the immunosuppression induced by aluminum trichloride (AlCl3), the peritoneal macrophages were cultured with RPMI-1640 medium containing 0.97 mM AlCl3 (1/10 IC50). NE was added to the medium at the final concentrations of 0 (control group, N-C), 0.1 (low-dose group, N-L), 1 (mid-dose group, N-M), and 10 (high-dose group, N-H) nM, respectively. No addition of both AlCl3 and NE serviced as blank group (D-C). Chemotaxis, adhesion, phagocytosis, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) secretion, cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) content, β2 adrenergic receptors (β2-AR) density, and messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of macrophages were detected. The results showed that AlCl3 reduced the chemotaxis, adhesion, phagocytosis, and TNF-α secretion and increased the cAMP content, β2-AR density, and mRNA expression of peritoneal macrophages. Meanwhile, the chemotaxis, adhesion, phagocytosis, TNF-α secretion, β2-AR density, and mRNA expression were reduced while the cAMP content was increased in NE-treated groups than those in N-C group. The results indicated that NE strengthens the immunosuppression induced by AlCl3 in cultured rat peritoneal macrophages through the β2-AR/cAMP pathway.

Abstract
Dementia is among various diseases affecting the elderly, who is also at a high risk for fractures. This study aimed to evaluate the association between fracture history and sequential risk of dementia in Taiwan.A retrospective cohort study was designed using the claims data of the entire insured residents covered by Taiwan's universal health insurance from 1998 to 2010. A total of 66,797 patients with fractures and 133,594 control subjects without fractures were matched in terms of age (±5 years), sex, and index year and then recruited. Fractures and dementia were defined in accordance with the International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision, Clinical Modification. The influence of fractures on the risk of dementia was analyzed using a Cox proportional hazards model.After a 12-year follow-up period, 2775 and 3991 incident cases of dementia were reported in exposed and unexposed cohorts, respectively. The overall incidence rate of dementia in individuals with fractures was 41% higher than that in individuals without fractures (6.05 vs 4.30 per 1000 person-years) at an adjusted hazard ratio of 1.38 (95% confidence interval 1.32-1.45) after age, sex, urbanization, and individual disorders or comorbidities were adjusted. Considering fracture location, we found that patients with hip fractures were at a slightly high risk for dementia. The occurrence of multiple fractures at a single visit was also significantly associated with an increased risk of dementia.Fracture history is regarded as an independent risk factor of dementia in individuals aged ≥65 years, particularly those who suffered from multiple fractures and/or fractures located in the hip. Further studies are needed to support an independent role of fracture in dementia considering the clinical information and other comorbidities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a novel polytrauma model that better recapitulates the immunologic response of the severely injured patient by combining long-bone fracture, muscle tissue damage, and cecectomy with hemorrhagic shock, resulting in an equivalent Injury Severity Score of greater than 15. We compared this new polytrauma/shock model to historically used murine trauma-hemorrhage models. DESIGN Pre-clinical controlled in vivo laboratory study. SETTING Laboratory of Inflammation Biology and Surgical Science. SUBJECTS Six- to 10-week-old C57BL/6 (B6) mice. INTERVENTIONS Mice underwent 90 minutes of shock (mean arterial pressure 30 mm Hg) and resuscitation via femoral artery cannulation followed by laparotomy (trauma-hemorrhage), hemorrhage with laparotomy and femur fracture, or laparotomy with cecetomy and femur fracture with muscle tissue damage (polytrauma). Mice were euthanized at 2 hours, 1 day, and 3 days postinjury. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The spleen, bone marrow, blood, and serum were collected from mice for analysis at the above time points. None of the models were lethal. Mice undergoing polytrauma exhibited a more robust inflammatory response with significant elevations in cytokine/chemokine concentrations when compared with traditional models. Polytrauma was the only model to induce neutrophilia (Ly6G (+)CD11b(+) cells) on days 1 and 3 (p<0.05). Polytrauma, as compared to trauma-hemorrhage and hemorrhage with laparotomy and femur fracture, induced a loss of circulating CD4(+) T cell with simultaneous increased cell activation (CD69(+) and CD25(+)), similar to human trauma. There was a prolonged loss of major histocompatibility complex class II expression on monocytes in the polytrauma model (p<0.05). Results were confirmed by genome-wide expression analysis that revealed a greater magnitude and duration of blood leukocyte gene expression changes in the polytrauma model than the trauma-hemorrhage and sham models. CONCLUSIONS This novel polytrauma model better replicates the human leukocyte, cytokine, and overall inflammatory response following injury and hemorrhagic shock.

Abstract
Splenic immune function is known to be depressed following hemorrhage. The present study investigates the effects of femoral shaft fracture, isolated or in combination with hemorrhage, on early stage cytokine production capacity of splenocytes and observes the role of IL-6 under these conditions. Male IL-6 knockout (IL-6−/−) and wild-type mice (WT) were randomly divided into three groups: sham (S), isolated femoral fracture (Fx), and femoral fracture + volume controlled hemorrhage (TH-Fx) (n = 6 per group). Animals were sacrificed four hours after induction of hemorrhage and fracture. Cytokine release (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10) of isolated and LPS-stimulated splenocytes was determined by cytometric bead array. Femoral fracture with or without hemorrhage caused a suppression of in vitro cytokine production capacity of splenocytes at an early posttraumatic stage in WT and IL-6−/−. In the absence of IL-6, the profile of splenic cytokine secretion is significantly altered, identifying this cytokine as a potential therapeutic target to modulate the posttraumatic immune response.

Abstract
To investigate the effects of aluminum (Al) exposure on peritoneal macrophages of Wistar rats, four groups of ten rats each were orally exposed to 0, 13, 26, and 52 mg kg(-1) Al(3+) in form of aluminum trichloride (AlCl(3)) in drinking water for 120 days. At the end of the experimental period, the Al concentration in serum, the adherence, chemotaxis, and phagocytosis capacity of peritoneal macrophages were determined. The results showed that the Al concentration in serum significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner; the adherence, chemotaxis, and phagocytosis capacity of peritoneal macrophages decreased with the increase of Al dose, and present a dose-effective relationship. Further, they were significantly lower in the high-dose groups (P < 0.01) compared with the control group. It indicates that Al was toxic to peritoneal macrophages of rats, and the adherence, chemotaxis, and phagocytosis capacity of peritoneal macrophages in rats were significantly suppressed by exposure to 52 mg kg(-1) day Al(3+).

Abstract
The cause of metastasis remains elusive despite vast information on cancer cells. We posit that cancer cell fusion with macrophages or other migratory bone marrow-derived cells (BMDCs) provides an explanation. BMDCs fused with tumor cells were present in animal tumor xenografts where they were associated with metastases. In myeloma patients, transcriptionally active myeloma nuclei were incorporated into osteoclasts through fusion. In patients with renal cell carcinoma arising poststem cell transplant, donor genes were incorporated in recipient cancer cell nuclei, most likely through fusion, and showed tumor distribution patterns characteristic of cancer stem cells. Melanoma-macrophage hybrids generated in vitro contained chromosomes from both parental partners, showed increased ploidy, and transcribed and translated genes from both parents. They exhibited chemotactic migration in vitro toward fibronectin and exhibited high frequencies of metastasis when implanted in mice. They produced macromolecules that are characteristic of macrophages and known indicators of metastasis (c-Met, SPARC, MCR1, GnT-V, and the integrin subunits alpha(3), alpha(5), alpha(6), alpha(v), beta(1), beta(3)). They also produced high levels of beta1,6-branched oligosaccharides-predictors of poor survival in patients with melanoma or carcinomas of the breast, lung, and colon. We thus hypothesize that such gene expression patterns in cancer are generated through fusion. Tumor hybrids also showed active autophagy, a characteristic of both metastatic cancers and macrophages. BMDC-tumor cell fusion explains epidermal-mesenchymal transition in cancer since BMDCs express mesodermal traits and epithelial-mesenchymal transition regulators (Twist, SPARC, and others). If BMDC-tumor cell fusion underlies invasion and metastasis in human cancer, new approaches for therapeutic intervention would be mandated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the potential immunologic and anti-inflammatory effects of hypertonic saline plus dextran (HSD) in hemorrhagic trauma patients. BACKGROUND Unbalanced inflammation triggered by shock has been linked to multiorgan dysfunction (MOD) and death. In animal and cellular models, HSD alters the inflammatory response to shock, attenuating MOD and improving outcome. It remains untested whether HSD has similar effects in humans. METHODS A single 250-mL dose of either HSD (7.5% NaCl, 6% dextran-70) or placebo (0.9% NaCl) was administered to adult blunt trauma patients in hemorrhagic shock. The primary outcome was to measure changes in immune/inflammatory markers, including neutrophil activation, monocyte subset redistribution, cytokine production, and neuroendocrine changes. Patient demographics, fluid requirements, organ dysfunction, infection, and death were recorded. RESULTS A total of 27 patients were enrolled (13 HSD) with no significant differences in clinical measurements. Hyperosmolarity was modest and transient, whereas the immunologic/anti-inflammatory effects persisted for 24 hours. HSD blunted neutrophil activation by abolishing shock-induced CD11b up-regulation and causing CD62L shedding. HSD altered the shock-induced monocyte redistribution pattern by reducing the drop in "classic" CD14 and the expansion of the "pro-inflammatory" CD14CD16 subsets. In parallel, HSD significantly reduced pro-inflammatory tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha production while increasing anti-inflammatory IL-1ra and IL-10. HSD prevented shock-induced norepinephrine surge with no effect on adrenal steroids. CONCLUSIONS This first human trial evaluating the immunologic/anti-inflammatory effects of hypertonic resuscitation in trauma patients demonstrates that HSD promotes a more balanced inflammatory response to hemorrhagic shock, raising the possibility that similar to experimental models, HSD might also attenuate post-trauma MOD.
