Abstract
To explore the protective effect and mechanism of mild hypothermia on lung tissue damage after cardiopulmonary resuscitation in pigs. In this experiment, we electrically stimulated 16 pigs (30 ± 2 kg) for 10 min to cause ventricular fibrillation. The successfully resuscitated animals were randomly divided into two groups, a mild hypothermia group and a control group. We took arterial blood 0.5, 1, 3, and 6 h after ROSC recovery in the two groups of animals for blood gas analysis. We observed the structural changes of lung tissue under an electron microscope and calculate the wet weight/dry weight (W/D) ratio. We quantitatively analyzed the expression differences of representative inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha TNF-α)] through the ELISA test. We detected the expression levels of Bax, Bcl-2, and Caspase-3 proteins in lung tissues by Western blot. After 3 h and 6 h of spontaneous circulation was restored, compared with the control group, PaO2/FiO2 decreased significantly (P < 0.05). In addition, the pathological changes, lung W/D and lung MDA of the mild hypothermia group were better than those of the control group. The levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the lung tissue of the mild hypothermia group were significantly lower than those of the control group (P < 0.05). The content of Caspase-3 and Bax in the mild hypothermia group was significantly lower than that of the control group. Our experiments have shown that mild hypothermia can reduce lung tissue damage after cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Abstract
The members of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) Advanced Life Support Task Force have written a comprehensive summary of trials of the effectiveness of induced hypothermia (IH) or targeted temperature management (TTM) in comatose patients after cardiac arrest (CA). However, in-depth analysis of these studies is incomplete, especially since there was no significant difference in primary outcome between hypothermia versus normothermia in the recently reported TTM2 trial. We critically appraise trials of IH/TTM versus normothermia to characterize reasons for the lack of treatment effect, based on a previously published framework for what to consider when the primary outcome fails. We found a strong biologic rationale and external clinical evidence that IH treatment is beneficial. Recent TTM trials mainly included unselected patients with a high rate of bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The treatment was not applied as intended, which led to a large delay in achievement of target temperature. While receiving intensive care, sedative drugs were likely used that might have led to increased neurologic damage as were antiplatelet drugs that could be associated with increased acute stent thrombosis in hypothermic patients. It is reasonable to still use or evaluate IH treatment in patients who are comatose after CA as there are multiple plausible reasons why IH compared to normothermia did not significantly improve neurologic outcome in the TTM trials.

Abstract
Systemic inflammatory conditions are often associated with hypothermia or hyperthermia. Therapeutic hypothermia is used in post-cardiac arrest and some other acute diseases. There is a need for more knowledge concerning the effect of various temperatures on the acute inflammatory response. The complement system plays a crucial role in initiating the inflammatory response. We hypothesized that temperatures above and below the physiologic 37 °C affect complement activation and cytokine production ex vivo. Lepirudin-anticoagulated human whole blood from 10 healthy donors was incubated in the presence or absence of Escherichia coli at different temperatures (4 °C, 12 °C, 20 °C, 33 °C, 37 °C, 39 °C, and 41 °C). Complement activation was assessed by the terminal C5b-9 complement complex (TCC) and the alternative convertase C3bBbP using ELISA. Cytokines were measured using a 27-plex assay. Granulocyte and monocyte activation was evaluated by CD11b surface expression using flow cytometry. A consistent increase in complement activation was observed with rising temperature, reaching a maximum at 41 °C, both in the absence (C3bBbP p < 0.05) and presence (C3bBbP p < 0.05 and TCC p < 0.05) of E. coli. Temperature alone did not affect cytokine production, whereas incubation with E. coli significantly increased cytokine levels of IL-1β, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, IFN-γ, and TNF at temperatures > 20 °C. Maximum increase occurred at 39 °C. However, a consistent decrease was observed at 41 °C, significant for IL-1β (p = 0.003). Granulocyte CD11b displayed the same temperature-dependent pattern as cytokines, with a corresponding increase in endothelial cell apoptosis and necrosis. Thus, blood temperature differentially determines the degree of complement activation and cytokine release.

Abstract
The outcome of cardiac arrest is worse when there is fever after spontaneous circulation is restored (ROSC). The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanism of post-ROSC cardiac dysfunction after hyperthermia treatment and the effects of temperature control. Twenty-four male Bama minipigs were randomized into 3 groups (8 per group): CPR + controlled normothermia (CN), CPR + hyperthermia (HT), and CPR + therapeutic mild hypothermia (TMH). Defibrillation was given to pigs with ventricular fibrillation after 8 min of untreated fibrillation. Subsequently, these animals received the post-ROSC treatments of hyperthermia (38 °C), controlled normothermia (37 °C) or hypothermia (33 °C) according to the groups. Hemodynamic parameters, left ventricular ejection fraction, blood samples and myocardial tissues were assessed. At 24 h after the post-ROSC treatments, the pigs treated with hyperthermia showed increments in heart rate and plasma cardiac troponin I, and decreases in mean arterial pressure, cardiac index, and left ventricular ejection fraction, compared to those with the controlled normothermia pigs. However, the deterioration of the above parameters can be attenuated by TMH. The pigs in the TMH group also had a reduced percentage of apoptotic cardiomyocytes, an increased anti-apoptotic Bcl-2/Bax ratio and a decreased caspase-3 activity in myocardium, as compared with both controlled normothermia and hyperthermia pigs. In conclusion, hyperthermia is associated with a worse myocardial dysfunction. TMH improves hyperthermia-induced myocardial dysfunction by attenuating apoptosis in a porcine model of cardiac arrest.

Abstract
BACKGROUND sCD59, as a soluble form of CD59, is observed in multiple types of body fluids and correlated with the cell damage after ischemia/reperfusion injury. This study aims to observe the dynamic changes of serum sCD59 in patients after restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and explore the association of serum sCD59 with neurological prognosis and all-cause mortality in patients after ROSC. METHODS A total of 68 patients after ROSC were prospectively recruited and divided into survivors (n = 23) and non-survivors (n = 45) groups on the basis of 28-day survival. Twenty healthy volunteers were enrolled as controls. Serum sCD59 and other serum complement components, including sC5b-9, C5a, C3a, C3b, C1q, MBL, Bb, and pro-inflammatory mediators tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin-6 (IL-6), neurological damage biomarkers neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and soluble protein 100β (S100β) were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay on day 1, 3, and 7 after ROSC. Neurologic outcome was assessed using cerebral performance category scores, with poor neurologic outcome defined as 3-5 points. RESULTS In the first week after ROSC, serum levels of sCD59, sC5b-9, C5a, C3a, C3b, C1q, MBL, Bb, TNF-α, IL-6, NSE and S100β were significantly elevated in patients after ROSC compared to healthy volunteers, with a significant elevation in the non-survivors compared to survivors except serum C1q and MBL. Serum sCD59 levels were positively correlated with serum sC5b-9, TNF-α, IL-6, NSE, S100β, SOFA score and APACHE II score. Moreover, serum sCD59 on day 1, 3, and 7 after ROSC could be used for predicting poor 28-day neurological prognosis and all-cause mortality. Serum sCD59 on day 3 had highest AUCs for predicting poor 28-day neurological prognosis [0.862 (95% CI 0.678-0.960)] and 28-day all-cause mortality [0.891 (95% CI 0.769-0.962)]. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, the serum level of sCD59D1 was independently associated with poor 28-day neurological prognosis and all-cause mortality. CONCLUSIONS The elevated serum level of sCD59 was positively correlated with disease severity after ROSC. Moreover, serum sCD59 could have good predictive values for the poor 28-day neurological prognosis and all-cause mortality in patients after ROSC.

Abstract
Therapeutic hypothermia was recommended as the only neuroprotective treatment in comatose patients after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). With new evidence suggesting a similar neuroprotective effect of 36 °C and 33 °C, the term "therapeutic hypothermia" was substituted by "targeted temperature management" in 2011, which in turn was replaced by the term "temperature control" in 2022 because of new evidence of the similar effects of target normothermia and 33 °C. However, there is no clear consensus on the efficacy of therapeutic hypothermia. In this article, we provide an overview of the recent evidence from basic and clinical research related to therapeutic hypothermia and re-evaluate its application as a post-ROSC neuroprotective intervention in clinical settings.

Abstract
After restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) following cardiac arrest, complements can be activated and excessive autophagy can contribute to the brain ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Mild hypothermia (HT) protects against brain I/R injury after ROSC, but the mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Here, we found that HT significantly inhibited the increases in serum NSE, S100β, and C5a, as well as neurologic deficit scores, TUNEL-positive cells, and autophagic vacuoles in the pig brain cortex after ROSC. The C5a receptor 1 (C5aR1) mRNA and the C5a, C5aR1, Beclin 1, LC3-II, and cleaved caspase-3 proteins were significantly increased, but the P62 protein and the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway-related proteins were significantly reduced in pigs after ROSC or neuronal oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation. HT could significantly attenuate the above changes in NT-treated neurons. Furthermore, C5a treatment induced autophagy and apoptosis and reduced the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway-related proteins in cultured neurons, which could be reversed by C5aR1 antagonist PMX205. Our findings demonstrated that C5a could bind to C5aR1 to induce neuronal autophagy during the brain I/R injury, which was associated with the inhibited PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. HT could inhibit C5a-induced neuronal autophagy by regulating the C5a-C5aR1 interaction and the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway, which might be one of the neuroprotective mechanisms underlying I/R injury. The C5a receptor 1 (C5aR1) mRNA and the C5a, C5aR1, Beclin 1, LC3-II, and cleaved caspase-3 proteins were significantly increased, but the P62 protein and the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway-related proteins were significantly reduced in pigs after ROSC or neuronal oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation. Mild hypothermia (HT) could significantly attenuate the above changes in NT-treated neurons. Furthermore, C5a treatment induced autophagy and apoptosis and reduced the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway-related proteins in cultured neurons, which could be reversed by C5aR1 antagonist PMX205. Proposed mechanism by which HT protects against brain I/R injury by repressing C5a-C5aR1-induced excessive autophagy. Complement activation in response to brain I/R injury generates C5a that can interact with C5aR1 to inactivate mTOR, probably through the PI3K-AKT pathway, which can finally lead to autophagy activation. The excessively activated autophagy ultimately contributes to cell apoptosis and brain injury. HT may alleviate complement activation and then reduce C5a-induced autophagy to protect against brain I/R injury. HT, mild hypothermia; I/R, ischemia reperfusion.

Abstract
Background The gap between demand and supply of kidneys for transplantation necessitates the use of kidneys from extended criteria donors. Transplantation of these donor kidneys is associated with inferior results, reflected by an increased risk of delayed graft function. Inferior results might be explained by the higher immunogenicity of extended criteria donor kidneys. Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) could be used as a platform to assess the quality and function of donor kidneys. In addition, it could be useful to evaluate and possibly alter the immunological response of donor kidneys. In this study, we first evaluated whether complement was activated during NMP of porcine and human discarded kidneys. Second, we examined the relationship between complement activation and pro-inflammatory cytokines during NMP. Third, we assessed the effect of complement activation on renal function and injury during NMP of porcine kidneys. Lastly, we examined local complement C3d deposition in human renal biopsies after NMP. Methods NMP with a blood-based perfusion was performed with both porcine and discarded human kidneys for 4 and 6 h, respectively. Perfusate samples were taken every hour to assess complement activation, pro-inflammatory cytokines and renal function. Biopsies were taken to assess histological injury and complement deposition. Results Complement activation products C3a, C3d, and soluble C5b-9 (sC5b-9) were found in perfusate samples taken during NMP of both porcine and human kidneys. In addition, complement perfusate levels positively correlated with the cytokine perfusate levels of IL-6, IL-8, and TNF during NMP of porcine kidneys. Porcine kidneys with high sC5b-9 perfusate levels had significantly lower creatinine clearance after 4 h of NMP. In line with these findings, high complement perfusate levels were seen during NMP of human discarded kidneys. In addition, kidneys retrieved from brain-dead donors had significantly higher complement perfusate levels during NMP than kidneys retrieved from donors after circulatory death. Conclusion Normothermic kidney machine perfusion induces complement activation in porcine and human kidneys, which is associated with the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and in porcine kidneys with lower creatinine clearance. Complement inhibition during NMP might be a promising strategy to reduce renal graft injury and improve graft function prior to transplantation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The optimal effective temperature of targeted temperature management (TTM) used to prevent cerebral injury following cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is undetermined. In this study, we compared the mortality, neurologic deficits, and cerebral protein levels of two target temperatures. METHODS Fifty 4-month-old female domestic pigs were randomized to sham, TTM at 33°C ± 0.5°C (T33), TTM at 35°C ± 0.5°C (T35), and normothermic (NT) groups. In the NT and TTM groups, untreated ventricular fibrillation was induced electrically in animals for 10 min, followed by 6 min of CPR. Target core temperatures (Tc) of TTM groups were induced and maintained (6 h) using an endovascular hypothermia device, and rewarmed to 37.5 ± 0.5°C in the next 6 h. Tc of the NT group was maintained at 37.5 ± 0.5°C. The survival outcomes and neurological function were evaluated every 24 h for 72 h. RESULTS All animals were successfully resuscitated with no significant differences in baseline characteristics or hemodynamic indexes. Survival rates and neurological outcomes were significantly improved in the TTM groups, with T33 showing the most significant effect. Compared with NT-treated animals, TTM-treated animals had higher expressions of angiopoietin-1, transforming growth factor-alpha , vascular endothelial growth factor, metallopeptidase inhibitor (TIMP)-1, TIMP-2, and platelet-derived growth factor-BB. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor and IL-17F levels were markedly upregulated after resuscitation in the NT group but inhibited in the TTM groups. Neuron-specific enolase staining data was also consistent with our conclusion that hypothermia can reduce reperfusion-induced brain injuries. CONCLUSION Lower target temperature showed greater protective effects against cerebral injuries after CPR, and the improved neurological outcomes after TTM may be associated with decreased expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and increased expression of blood-brain barrier and neurogenesis regulatory factors in this porcine model of CA following resuscitation.

Targeted Temperature Management Suppresses Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1α and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Expression in a Pig Model of Cardiac Arrest. Neurocrit Care 2021; 35:379-388. [PMID: 33403582 PMCID: PMC7785329 DOI: 10.1007/s12028-020-01166-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2020] [Accepted: 11/23/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α)/vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/VEGF receptor subtype 2 (VEGFR-2) pathway has been implicated in ischemia/reperfusion injury. The aim of this study was to clarify whether whole-body hypothermic targeted temperature management (HTTM) inhibits the HIF-1α/VEGF/VEGFR-2 pathway in a swine model of cardiac arrest (CA) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). METHODS Twenty-four domestic male Beijing Landrace pigs were used in this study. CA was electrically induced with ventricular fibrillation and left untreated for 8 min. Return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) was achieved in 16 pigs, which were randomly assigned either to normothermia at 38 °C or to HTTM at 33 °C (each group: n = 8). HTTM was intravascularly induced immediately after ROSC. The core temperature was reduced to 33 °C and maintained for 12 h after ROSC. The serum levels of HIF-1α, VEGF, VEGFR-2, and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) were measured with enzyme immunoassay kits 0.5, 6, 12, and 24 h after ROSC. The expression of HIF-1α, VEGF, and VEGFR-2 in cerebral cortical tissue was measured by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis 24 h after ROSC. Neurological deficit scores and brain cortical tissue water content were evaluated 24 h after ROSC. RESULTS The serum levels of HIF-1α, VEGF, and VEGFR-2 were significantly increased under normothermia within 24 h after ROSC. However, these increases were significantly reduced by HTTM. HTTM also decreased cerebral cortical HIF-1α, VEGF, and VEGFR-2 mRNA and protein expression 24 h after ROSC (all p < 0.05). HTTM pigs had better neurological outcomes and less brain edema than normothermic pigs. CONCLUSION The HIF-1α/VEGF/VEGFR-2 system is activated following CA and CPR. HTTM protects against cerebral injury after ROSC, which may be part of the mechanism by which it inhibits the expression of components of the HIF-1α/VEGF/VEGFR-2 signaling pathway.

Abstract
RATIONALE Unprecedented heatwaves over the past several years are getting worse with longer duration in the course of global warming. Heatstroke is a medical emergency with multiple organ involvement and life-threatening illness with a high mortality rate of up to 71%. Uncontrolled damage to the central nervous system can result in severe cerebral edema, permanent neurological sequelae, and death. However, regarding the therapeutic aspects of heat stroke, there was no therapeutic strategy after the rapid cooling of the core body temperature to <39°C to prevent further injury. PATIENT CONCERNS Each of 3 patients developed a change of mental statuses after the exposure to summer heatwaves or relatively high environmental temperatures with high humidity in the sauna. DIAGNOSES The patients were diagnosed with severe heatstroke since they showed cerebral edema and multiple organ dysfunction based on the results from laboratory tests and the findings in brain computed tomography scan. INTERVENTIONS The patients underwent induced therapeutic hypothermia (<36°C) between 24 and 36 hours in the management of severe heatstroke. OUTCOMES The patients survived from cerebral edema and multiple organ dysfunction. LESSONS We believe that targeted temperature management (<36°C) will help treat severe heatstroke. Thus it should be considered for reducing the chance of development of complications in multiple organs, especially in the central nervous system, when managing patients with severe heatstroke.

Abstract
Investigate the effect of mild hypothermia on serum inflammatory factor HMGB1 of brain-dead donors, and its significance for renal transplantation recipients.In our hospital between January 2018 and January 2019 up to the standard of brain death donor (aged 18 to 65 years old) prospective cohort study, brain death donor were randomly divided into mild hypothermia group and the non-mild hypothermia group. Serum were collected from donor at different periods, and enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) was used to determine the serum HMGB1 concentration to compare the difference between the 2 donor groups. The early recovery of renal function after renal transplantation was followed up, and the incidence of delayed graft function (DGF) and early recovery of renal function were compared between the 2 groups. The correlation between donor HMGB1 and recipient DGF was analyzed.Between 17 donors in the mild hypothermia group and 17 in the non-mild hypothermia group, there were no statistically significant differences in the age, perioperative urine volume and ICU stay between the 2 groups. After mild hypothermia treatment, serum HMGB1 levels of brain death donors were significantly decreased. While in non-mild hypothermia brain death donor group without treatment, serum HMGB1 was significantly increased. There were no statistically significant differences in age and preoperative creatinine between the 2 recipient groups, including 33 patients in the mild hypothermia group and 34 patients in the non-mild hypothermia group. DGF incidence was lower in mild hypothermia group comparing with non-mild hypothermia group with statistical significance. The levels of HMGB1 from donor before procurement is correlated with the occurrence of DGF of the recipient.Mild hypothermia therapy can reduce the levels of serum HMGB1, improve the function of donor organs. The levels of HMGB1 before donor procurement can be used to predict the occurrence of DGF in kidney transplant recipients. Our study shows that HMGB1 can be potentially used as therapeutic target of early intervention for brain death donors. Furthermore, mild hypothermia therapy can be applied in the maintenance of brain death donors for kidney transplant recipient to improve the successful rate of transplantation.

Abstract
Hypothermia enhances outcomes of patients after resuscitation after cardiac arrest (CA). However, the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. In this study, we investigated effects of hypothermic therapy on neuronal damage/death, microglial activation, and changes of endogenous antioxidants in the anterior horn in the lumbar spinal cord in a rat model of asphyxial CA (ACA). A total of 77 adult male Sprague–Dawley rats were randomized into five groups: normal, sham ACA plus (+) normothermia, ACA + normothermia, sham ACA + hypothermia, and ACA + hypothermia. ACA was induced for 5 min by injecting vecuronium bromide. Therapeutic hypothermia was applied after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) via rapid cooling with isopropyl alcohol wipes, which was maintained at 33 ± 0.5 °C for 4 h. Normothermia groups were maintained at 37 ± 0.2 °C for 4 h. Neuronal protection, microgliosis, oxidative stress, and changes of endogenous antioxidants were evaluated at 12 h, 1 day, and 2 days after ROSC following ACA. ACA resulted in neuronal damage from 12 h after ROSC and evoked obvious degeneration/loss of spinal neurons in the ventral horn at 1 day after ACA, showing motor deficit of the hind limb. In addition, ACA resulted in a gradual increase in microgliosis with time after ACA. Therapeutic hypothermia significantly reduced neuronal loss and attenuated hind limb dysfunction, showing that hypothermia significantly attenuated microgliosis. Furthermore, hypothermia significantly suppressed ACA-induced increases of superoxide anion production and 8-hydroxyguanine expression, and significantly increased superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1), SOD2, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase. Taken together, hypothermic therapy was found to have a substantial impact on changes in ACA-induced microglia activation, oxidative stress factors, and antioxidant enzymes in the ventral horn of the lumbar spinal cord, which closely correlate with neuronal protection and neurological performance after ACA.

Abstract
Perinatal asphyxia triggers an acute inflammatory response in the injured brain. Complement activation and neuroinflammation worsen brain damage after a systemic ischemia/reperfusion insult. The increase of mannose binding lectin (MBL) during asphyxia may contribute to the brain damage, via activation of the complement lectin pathway. The possible role of MBL2 gene variants in influencing the severity of post-asphyxia brain injuries is still unexplored. This retrospective study included 53 asphyxiated neonates: 42 underwent therapeutic hypothermia (TH) and 11 did not because they were admitted to the NICU later than 6 h after the hypoxic insult. Blood samples from TH-treated and untreated patients were genotyped for MBL2 gene variants, and biomarker plasma levels (MBL and S100 B protein) were measured at different time points: during hypothermia, during rewarming, and at 7-10 days of life. The timing of blood sampling, except for the T1 sample, was the same in untreated infants. Highest (peak) levels of MBL and MBL2 genotypes were correlated to neuroimaging brain damage or death and long-term neurodevelopmental delay. MBL2 wild-type genotype was associated with the highest MBL levels and worst brain damage on MRI (p = 0.046) at 7-10 days after hypoxia. MBL increased in both groups and S100B decreased, slightly more in treated than in untreated neonates. The progressive increase of MBL (p = 0.08) and to be untreated with TH (p = 0.08) increased the risk of brain damage or death at 7-10 days of life, without affecting neurodevelopmental outcomes at 1 year. The effect of TH on MBL plasma profiles is uncertain.

Abstract
Hypothermia is used for several h during cardiac and aortic surgery to protect ischemic organs. Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is used for ≤24 h as a treatment for comatose patients after the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) following cardiac arrest. The proteomic approach may provide unbiased data on alterations in the abundance of proteins during TH. The objective of this study was to assess the effects of cooling/rewarming on the plasma proteome during TH after ROSC and to identify the mechanism underlying its therapeutic effects. A total of nine comatose adult patients, resuscitated shortly after cardiac arrest, were cooled to 34°C for 24 h and slowly rewarmed to 36°C. A quantitative gel-free proteomic analysis was performed using the isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantification labeling tandem mass spectrometry. Plasma samples were obtained prior to cooling and rewarming, and immediately after rewarming, from all patients during TH after ROSC. A total of 92 high-confidence proteins were identified. Statistically significant alterations were observed (>1.2-fold increase or <0.833-fold decrease) in the levels of 15 of those proteins (P=0.003–0.047), mainly proteins belonging to the acute-phase response or platelet degranulation. Unexpectedly, the levels of free hemoglobin (hemoglobin subunits α and β) were significantly downregulated during TH (P<0.05). The level of the terminal complement complex (SC5b-9) showed significant reduction after cooling (P=0.023). Although the acute-phase response proteins were upregulated, the abundance of complement proteins did not change, and the levels of SC5b-9 and free hemoglobin decreased during TH in patients after ROSC.

Abstract
Introduction: Post-cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS) is characterized by systemic ischemia/reperfusion injury, anoxic brain injury, and post-arrest myocardial dysfunction superimposed on a precipitating pathology. The role of inflammatory cytokines in cardiac arrest remains unclear. Aims: We aimed to describe, with an emphasis on clinical applications, what is known about the role of inflammatory cytokines in cardiac arrest. Data Sources: A PubMed literature review was performed for relevant articles. Only articles in English that studied cytokines in patients with cardiac arrest were included. Results: Cytokines play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of PCAS. Following cardiac arrest, the large release of circulating cytokines mediates the ischemia/reperfusion injury, brain dysfunction, and myocardial dysfunction seen. Interleukins, tumor necrosis factor, and matrix metalloproteinases all play a unique prognostic role in PCAS. High levels of inflammatory cytokines have been associated with mortality and/or poor neurologic outcomes. Interventions to modify the systemic inflammation seen in PCAS continue to be heavily studied. Currently, the only approved medical intervention for comatose patients following cardiac arrest is targeted temperature management. Medical agents, including minocycline and sodium sulfide, have demonstrated promise in animal models. Conclusions: The role of inflammatory cytokines for both short- and long-term outcomes is an important area for future investigation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to identify whether esmolol attenuates cerebral cortex microcirculation blood flow due to epinephrine in prolonged ventricular fibrillation (VF) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and may improve neurological prognosis. METHODS Male pigs were randomized into the esmolol+epinephrine group (group EE), the epinephrine group (group EP), and the normal saline group (group NS) (n = 8 each group). Untreated VF for 8 minutes was induced in pigs. After CPR for 2 minutes, group EE received esmolol (500 µg/kg)+epinephrine (20 µg/kg), group EP received epinephrine 20 µg/kg, and group NS received 5 mL normal saline. Then, a 120 J electric shock was delivered. If the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) failed, epinephrine (20 µg/kg) was repeated in group EP and EE, followed by another 2 minutes of CPR, a 150 J electric shock was delivered every 2 minutes until ROSC. Cerebral microcirculation images were obtained at 0.5, 6, 12, and 24 hours by cranial windows after ROSC. Cerebral performance category scores and neurological deficit scores (NDS) were calculated. The frontal cortices were harvested after the animals were euthanized. RESULTS The NDS, the perfused vessel density, and the microcirculatory flow index of group EE were better than other two groups. The morphology of endothelial cells in the group EE remained intact; however, it was destroyed in the group EP. CONCLUSIONS Administration of esmolol with epinephrine may alleviate the impairment of cerebral microcirculation blood flow caused by the administration of epinephrine in prolonged VF and thereby improves neurological outcomes in a swine model.

Abstract
The lectin pathway (LP) of the complement system may initiate inflammatory reactions when body tissue is altered. We aimed to investigate the levels of the LP proteins in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients, and to compare these with healthy individuals. Furthermore, we aimed to clarify whether the duration of targeted temperature management influenced LP protein levels, and we further examined whether LP proteins were associated with 30-day mortality. We included 82 patients resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The patients were randomly assigned to 24 or 48 hours of targeted temperature management at 33 ± 1°C. Blood samples were obtained 22, 46 and 70 hours after target temperature was reached. Levels of the LP proteins (mannan-binding lectin [MBL], M-ficolin, H-ficolin, collectin liver 1 [CL-L1], MBL-associated serine protease 1 [MASP-1], MASP-2, MASP-3 and MBL-associated protein of 44 kDa [MAp44]) were measured using time-resolved immunofluorometric assays. Data from 82 gender matched healthy individuals were used for comparison. Levels of CL-L1, MASP-1, MASP-2 and MAp44 were significantly higher, whereas M-ficolin levels were significantly lower in cardiac arrest patients compared with healthy individuals. MASP-2, MASP-3 and M-ficolin levels changed significantly when comparing 24 and 48 hours of targeted temperature management. The LP protein levels were not different between 30-day survivors and non-survivors after cardiac arrest. The differences in LP protein levels between patients and healthy individuals may indicate that cardiac arrest patients have an activated LP. Overall, the LP protein levels were not influenced by the duration of targeted temperature management, and the levels were not associated with 30-day mortality.

Mild Hypothermia Pretreatment Attenuates Liver Ischemia Reperfusion Injury Through Inhibiting c-Jun NH2-terminal Kinase Phosphorylation in Rats. Transplant Proc 2018; 50:259-266. [PMID: 29407320 DOI: 10.1016/j.transproceed.2017.12.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2017] [Revised: 11/22/2017] [Accepted: 12/12/2017] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mild hypothermia is known to be protected against ischemia reperfusion (IR) injury. But the exact mechanisms of protection have not yet been fully understood and its usage has been limited. Mild hypothermia pretreatment (MHP) is used to investigate the mechanisms of the protective effects against liver IR injury. METHODS Anesthetized male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups including the normal group (N), sham group (S), MHP group, normothermia pretreatment (NP) + IR group, and the MHP + IR group. In the pretreatment groups, mild hypothermia (32.2 ± 0.3°C) and normothermia (37 ± 0.5°C) pretreatment were applied for 2 hours, respectively. Then the IR groups suffered partial (70%) hepatic ischemia for 1 hour and reperfusion for 6 hours. At last, hepatic injury, apoptosis, and protein expression were assessed. RESULTS Levels of serum alanine transaminase, hepatic injury, hepatocyte apoptosis, and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) phosphorylation were significantly higher in the IR groups. But when compared to NP, all these changes induced by IR were markedly attenuated by MHP. Serum alanine transaminase levels were 383.4 ± 13.1U/L in the MHP + IR group and 951.3 ± 39.4 U/L in the NP + IR group. The histologic score of liver injury in the MHP + IR group was 4.83 ± 1.17, whereas in the NP + IR group it was 10.5 ± 1.05. The proportion of apoptotic cells in the MHP + IR group was 11.58 ± 0.60, but in the NP + IR group, it was 44.95 ± 1.61. The phosphorylation of JNK was also significantly reduced in the MHP + IR group. All these differences are statistically significant (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS MHP could markedly reduce liver IR injury, and these protective effects may be mainly exerted via inhibition of JNK phosphorylation.

Abstract
The cessation (ischemia) and restoration (reperfusion) of cerebral blood flow after cardiac arrest (CA) induce inflammatory processes that can result in additional brain injury. Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) has been proven as a brain protective strategy after CA. In this article, the underlying pathophysiology of ischemia-reperfusion brain injury with emphasis on the role of inflammatory mechanisms is reviewed. Potential targets for immunomodulatory treatments and relevant effects of TH are also discussed. Further studies are needed to delineate the complex pathophysiology and interactions among different components of immune response after CA and identify appropriate targets for clinical investigations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced age is an independent predictor of poor outcome after cardiac arrest (CA). From experimental studies of regional ischemia-reperfusion injury, advanced age is associated with larger infarct size, reduced organ function, and augmented oxidative stress. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of age on cardiovascular function, oxidative stress, inflammation, and endothelial activation after CA representing global ischemia-reperfusion. METHODS Aged (26 months) and young (5 months) rats were subjected to 8 min of asphyxia induced CA, resuscitated and observed for 360 min. Left ventricular pressure-derived cardiac function was measured at baseline and 360 min after CA. Blood samples obtained at baseline, 120 min, and 360 min after CA were analyzed for IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, elastase, sE-selectin, sL-selectin, sI-CAM1, hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1) and protein carbonyl. Tissue samples of brain, heart, kidney, and lung were analyzed for HO-1. RESULTS Cardiac function, evaluated by dP/dtmax and dP/dtmin , was decreased after CA in both young and aged rats, with no group differences. Mean arterial pressure increased after CA in young, but not old rats. Aged rats showed significantly higher plasma levels of elastase and sE-selectin after CA, and there was a significant different development over time between groups for IL-6 and IL-10. Young rats showed higher levels of HO-1 in plasma and renal tissue after CA. CONCLUSION In a rat model of asphyxial CA, advanced age is associated with an attenuated hyperdynamic blood pressure response and increased endothelial activation.

Abstract
Ischaemic stroke induces endogenous repair processes that include proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells and extensive rewiring of the remaining neural connections, yet about 50% of stroke survivors live with severe long-term disability. There is an unmet need for drug therapies to improve recovery by promoting brain plasticity in the subacute to chronic phase after ischaemic stroke. We previously showed that complement-derived peptide C3a regulates neural progenitor cell migration and differentiation in vitro and that C3a receptor signalling stimulates neurogenesis in unchallenged adult mice. To determine the role of C3a-C3a receptor signalling in ischaemia-induced neural plasticity, we subjected C3a receptor-deficient mice, GFAP-C3a transgenic mice expressing biologically active C3a in the central nervous system, and their respective wild-type controls to photothrombotic stroke. We found that C3a overexpression increased, whereas C3a receptor deficiency decreased post-stroke expression of GAP43 (P < 0.01), a marker of axonal sprouting and plasticity, in the peri-infarct cortex. To verify the translational potential of these findings, we used a pharmacological approach. Daily intranasal treatment of wild-type mice with C3a beginning 7 days after stroke induction robustly increased synaptic density (P < 0.01) and expression of GAP43 in peri-infarct cortex (P < 0.05). Importantly, the C3a treatment led to faster and more complete recovery of forepaw motor function (P < 0.05). We conclude that C3a-C3a receptor signalling stimulates post-ischaemic neural plasticity and intranasal treatment with C3a receptor agonists is an attractive approach to improve functional recovery after ischaemic brain injury.

Abstract
Therapeutic hypothermia is well known for its protective effect against brain injury after cardiac arrest, but the exact mechanism remains unclear. Cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (CIRP), a member of cold shock protein, enables mammalian cells to withstand decreased temperature by regulating gene translation. However, the role of CIRP in global cerebral ischemia after therapeutic hypothermia has not been clearly elucidated. In the present study, rats resuscitated from 4 min of cardiac arrest were separately treated with therapeutic hypothermia (immediately after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC); targeted temperature at 33 °C) and therapeutic normothermia (targeted temperature at 36.8 °C) for 6 h. The hippocampus was harvested at 0 h (baseline), 6 h, 12 h, 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days after ROSC. The expression of CIRP messenger RNA (mRNA) was assessed by real-time PCR. CIRP and mitochondrial apoptosis-associated proteins were tested by Western blot. The histological changes and neurological function were respectively evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin staining and neurological deficit score (NDS). Compared with baseline, rats resuscitated from cardiac arrest showed increased expression of CIRP, Bax, Caspase 9, and Caspase 3 and decreased expression of Bcl-2 in hippocampus (P < 0.05). However, therapeutic hypothermia after ROSC alleviated the alterations of Bax, Caspase 9, Caspase 3, and Bcl-2, while further increased the hippocampal expression of CIRP mRNA and protein, when compared with the normothermia rats (P < 0.05). In addition, compared with the therapeutic normothermia rats, histopathological damage in CA1 zone and NDS were respectively decreased and increased in the hypothermia rats (P < 0.05). Our findings suggest that 32 °C therapeutic hypothermia exerts an important neuroprotective effects by up-regulating CIRP expression and inhibiting mitochondrial apoptosis factor production in the cardiac arrest rat model.

Abstract
Noncommunicable diseases, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer, are the leading cause of death in the world. The cost, both monetary and time, of developing therapies to prevent, treat, or manage these diseases has become unsustainable. A contributing factor is inefficient and ineffective preclinical research, in which the animal models utilized do not replicate the complex physiology that influences disease. An ideal preclinical animal model is one that responds similarly to intrinsic and extrinsic influences, providing high translatability and concordance of preclinical findings to humans. The overwhelming genetic, anatomical, physiological, and pathophysiological similarities to humans make miniature swine an ideal model for preclinical studies of human disease. Additionally, recent development of precision gene-editing tools for creation of novel genetic swine models allows the modeling of highly complex pathophysiology and comorbidities. As such, the utilization of swine models in early research allows for the evaluation of novel drug and technology efficacy while encouraging redesign and refinement before committing to clinical testing. This review highlights the appropriateness of the miniature swine for modeling complex physiologic systems, presenting it as a highly translational preclinical platform to validate efficacy and safety of therapies and devices.
