Role of the interstitium during septic shock: a key to the understanding of fluid dynamics? J Intensive Care 2023; 11:44.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While not traditionally included in the conceptual understanding of circulation, the interstitium plays a critical role in maintaining fluid homeostasis. Fluid balance regulation is a critical aspect of septic shock, with a well-known association between fluid balance and outcome. The regulation of transcapillary flow is the first key to understand fluid homeostasis during sepsis. MAIN TEXT Capillary permeability is increased during sepsis, and was classically considered to be necessary and sufficient to explain the increase of capillary filtration during inflammation. However, on the other side of the endothelial wall, the interstitium may play an even greater role to drive capillary leak. Indeed, the interstitial extracellular matrix forms a complex gel-like structure embedded in a collagen skeleton, and has the ability to directly attract intravascular fluid by decreasing its hydrostatic pressure. Thus, interstitium is not a mere passive reservoir, as was long thought, but is probably major determinant of fluid balance regulation during sepsis. Up to this date though, the role of the interstitium during sepsis and septic shock has been largely overlooked. A comprehensive vision of the interstitium may enlight our understanding of septic shock pathophysiology. Overall, we have identified five potential intersections between septic shock pathophysiology and the interstitium: 1. increase of oedema formation, interacting with organ function and metabolites diffusion; 2. interstitial pressure regulation, increasing transcapillary flow; 3. alteration of the extracellular matrix; 4. interstitial secretion of inflammatory mediators; 5. decrease of lymphatic outflow. CONCLUSIONS We aimed at reviewing the literature and summarizing the current knowledge along these specific axes, as well as methodological aspects related to interstitium exploration.

Abstract
Increases in the volume of the interstitial space are readily recognized clinically as interstitial edema formation in the loose connective tissue of skin, mucosa, and lung. However, the contents and the hydrostatic pressure of this interstitial fluid can be very difficult to determine even in experimental settings. These difficulties have long obscured what we are beginning to appreciate is a dynamic milieu that is subject to both intrinsic and extrinsic regulation. This review examines current concepts regarding regulation of interstitial volume, pressure, and flow and utilizes that background to address three major topics of interest that impact IV fluid administration. The first of these started with the discovery that excess dietary salt can be stored non-osmotically in the interstitial space with minimal impact on vascular volume and pressures. This led to the hypothesis that, along with the kidney, the interstitial space plays an active role in the long-term regulation of blood pressure. Second, it now appears that hypovolemic shock leads to systemic inflammatory response syndrome principally through the entry of digestive enzymes into the intestinal interstitial space and the subsequent progression of enzymes and inflammatory agents through the mesenteric lymphatic system to the general circulation. Lastly, current evidence strongly supports the non-intuitive view that the primary factor leading to inflammatory edema formation is a decrease in interstitial hydrostatic pressure that dramatically increases microvascular filtration.

Abstract
The interstitium or interstitial space describes the space outside the blood and lymphatic vessels. It contains two phases; the interstitial fluid (IF) and the extracellular matrix. In this review we focus on the interstitial fluid phase, which is the physical and biochemical microenvironment of the cells, and more specifically that of tumors. IF is created by transcapillary filtration and cleared by lymphatic vessels, and contains substances that are either produced and secreted locally, thus denoted secretome, or brought to the organ by the circulation. The structure of the interstitium is discussed briefly and moreover techniques for IF isolation focusing on those that are relevant for studies of the secretome. Accumulated data show that tumor IF is hypoxic and acidic compared with subcutaneous IF and plasma, and that there are gradients between IF and plasma giving information on where substances are produced and thereby reflecting the local microenvironment. We review recent data on the origin of tissue specific substances, challenges related to isolating a representative secretome and the use of this as a substrate for biomarker identification. Finally we perform a comparative analysis across human tumor types and techniques and show that there is great variation in the results obtained that may at least partially be due to the isolation method used. We conclude that when care is taken in isolation of substrate, analysis of the secretome may give valuable biological insight and result in identification of biomarker candidates. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: An Updated Secretome.

Abstract
The interstitium describes the fluid, proteins, solutes, and the extracellular matrix (ECM) that comprise the cellular microenvironment in tissues. Its alterations are fundamental to changes in cell function in inflammation, pathogenesis, and cancer. Interstitial fluid (IF) is created by transcapillary filtration and cleared by lymphatic vessels. Herein we discuss the biophysical, biomechanical, and functional implications of IF in normal and pathological tissue states from both fluid balance and cell function perspectives. We also discuss analysis methods to access IF, which enables quantification of the cellular microenvironment; such methods have demonstrated, for example, that there can be dramatic gradients from tissue to plasma during inflammation and that tumor IF is hypoxic and acidic compared with subcutaneous IF and plasma. Accumulated recent data show that IF and its convection through the interstitium and delivery to the lymph nodes have many and diverse biological effects, including in ECM reorganization, cell migration, and capillary morphogenesis as well as in immunity and peripheral tolerance. This review integrates the biophysical, biomechanical, and biological aspects of interstitial and lymph fluid and its transport in tissue physiology, pathophysiology, and immune regulation.

Abstract
Lymph stasis can result in edema and the accumulation of particulate matter, exudates, toxins and bacteria in tissue interstitial fluid, leading to inflammation, impaired immune cell trafficking, tissue hypoxia, tissue fibrosis and a variety of diseases. Previously, we demonstrated that osteopathic lymphatic pump techniques (LPTs) significantly increased thoracic and intestinal duct lymph flow. The purpose of this study was to determine if LPT would mobilize inflammatory mediators into the lymphatic circulation. Under anesthesia, thoracic or intestinal lymph of dogs was collected at resting (pre-LPT), during four minutes of LPT, and for 10 min following LPT (post-LPT), and the lymphatic concentrations of interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, interferon- γ, tissue necrosis factor α, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), keratinocyte chemoattractant, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and nitrotyrosine (NT) were measured. LPT significantly increased MCP-1 concentrations in thoracic duct lymph. Further, LPT increased both thoracic and intestinal duct lymph flux of cytokines and chemokines as compared with their respective pre-LPT flux. In addition, LPT increased lymphatic flux of SOD and NT. Ten minutes following cessation of LPT, thoracic and intestinal lymph flux of cytokines, chemokines, NT and SOD were similar to pre-LPT, demonstrating that their flux was transient and a response to LPT. This re-distribution of inflammatory mediators during LPT may provide scientific rationale for the clinical use of LPT to enhance immunity and treat infection.

Abstract
We tested the hypothesis that inhibition of phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) with rolipram to increase vascular endothelial cAMP and stabilize the endothelial barrier would attenuate the action of endogenous atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) to increase vascular permeability to the plasma protein albumin after an acute plasma volume expansion. After rolipram pretreatment (8 mg (kg body wt)(-1), intraperitoneal, 30 min) more than 95% of the peak increase in plasma volume after volume expansion (4.5% bovine serum albumin, 114 μl (g body wt)(-1) h(-1), 15 min) remained in the vascular space 75 min after the end of infusion, whereas only 67% of the fluid was retained in volume-expanded animals with no rolipram pretreatment. Rolipram significantly decreased 30 min fluorescently labelled albumin clearance (μl (g dry wt)(-1)) relative to untreated volume-expanded controls in skin (e.g. back, 10.4 ± 1.6 vs. 19.5 ± 3.6, P = 0.04), muscle (e.g. hamstring, 15.0 ± 1.9 vs. 20.8 ± 1.4, P = 0.04) and in colon, caecum, and rectum (average reduction close to 50%). The mass of muscle and skin tissue accounted for 70% of volume-expansion-dependent albumin shifts from plasma to interstitium. The results are consistent with observations that the PDE4 inhibitor rolipram attenuates ANP-induced increases in vascular permeability after infusion of exogenous ANP and observations of elevated central venous pressure after a similar volume expansion in mice with selective deletion of the endothelial ANP receptor. These observations may form the basis for new strategies to retain intravenous fluid containing macromolecules.

Do viral infections mimic bacterial sepsis? The role of microvascular permeability: A review of mechanisms and methods. Antiviral Res 2011; 93:2-15.

Abstract
A dysregulated immune response and functional immunosuppression have been considered the major mechanisms of the bacterial sepsis syndrome. More recently, the loss of endothelial barrier function and resultant microvascular leak have been found to be a key determinant of the pathogenesis of bacterial sepsis. Whether a similar paradigm applies to systemic viral syndromes is not known. Answering this question has far-reaching implications for the development of future anti-viral therapeutic strategies. In this review, we provide an overview of the structure and function of the endothelium and how its barrier integrity is compromised in bacterial sepsis. The various in vitro and in vivo methodologies available to investigate vascular leak are reviewed. Emphasis is placed on the advantages and limitations of cell culture techniques, which represent the most commonly used methods. Within this context, we appraise recent studies of three viruses - hantavirus, human herpes virus 8 and dengue virus - that suggest microvascular leak may play a role in the pathogenesis of these viral infections. We conclude with a discussion of how endothelial barrier breakdown may occur in other viral infections such as H5N1 avian influenza virus.

Abstract
Inhibition of phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) to increase endothelial cAMP and stabilize the endothelial barrier attenuates acute inflammatory increases in vascular permeability.We extended this approach to attenuate physiological increases in vascular permeability in response to atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), which acts with the kidney to regulate plasma volume. We measured blood-to-tissue albumin clearance and changes in plasma volume in isoflurane-anaesthetized mice (C57BL/6J) pre-treated with rolipram (8 mg kg(-1) I.P., 30 min). Rolipram significantly reduced albumin permeability, measured using a dual-label fluorescence method, in skin and skeletal muscle compared with ANP alone (500 ng kg(-1) min(-1)). Skin and muscle tissue accounted for 70% of the reduction in whole body albumin clearance taking into account albumin clearance in gastrointestinal (GI) tissue, heart and kidney. The action of ANP and rolipram to modify albumin clearances in duodenum and jejunum could be accounted for by local increases in vascular perfusion to increase surface area for exchange. ANP increased haematocrit from 40.6% to 46.8%, corresponding to an average loss of 22% plasma fluid volume (227 μl), and this was almost completely reversed with rolipram. Renal water excretion accounted for less than 30% of plasma fluid loss indicating that reduced albumin permeability and reduced filtration into vasodilated GI tissue were the predominant actions of PDE4 inhibition. Similar fluid retention was measured in mice with endothelial-restricted deletion of the guanylyl cyclase-A receptor for ANP. Stabilizing the endothelial barrier to offset ANP-induced increases in vascular permeability may be part of a strategy to maintain plasma volume.

Abstract
Multiple processes modulate net blood-to-tissue exchange in a microvascular unit in normal and pathophysiological conditions. These include mechanisms that control the number and type of microvessels perfused, the balance of adhesion and contractile forces that determine the conductance of the spaces between endothelial cells to water and solutes, the pressure and chemical potential gradients determining the driving forces through these conductive pathways, and the organization of barriers to macromolecules in the endothelial glycocalyx. Powerful methods are available to investigate these mechanisms at the levels of cultured endothelial monolayers, isolated microvessels, and the microvascular units within intact organs. Here we focus on current problems that limit the integration of our knowledge of mechanisms investigated in detail at the cellular level into a more complete understanding of modulation of blood-to-tissue exchange in whole organs when the endothelial barrier is exposed to acute and more long-term inflammatory conditions. First, we review updated methods, applicable in mouse models of vascular permeability regulation, to investigate both acute and long-term changes in permeability. Methods to distinguish tracer accumulation due to change in perfusion from real increases in extravascular accumulation are emphasized. The second part of the review compares normal and increased permeability in individually perfused venular microvessels and endothelial cell monolayers. The heterogeneity of endothelial cell phenotypes in the baseline state and after exposure to injury and inflammatory conditions is emphasized. Lastly, we review new approaches to investigation of the glycocalyx barrier properties in cultured endothelial monolayers and in whole-body investigations.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated whether the anti-inflammatory drug PP56 (alpha-trinositol) may improve cancer-induced metabolic disorders. We implanted human MiaPaCa2 pancreatic cancer cells in the pancreas of 14 athymic mice for 12 weeks, using six intact littermates as normal controls. During the 12 weeks, seven tumor-cell recipients were treated with PP56 by daily injection (PPT mice). The tumor-cell recipients that were otherwise untreated were used as tumor controls (TC mice). Impaired glucose tolerance and decreased body weight gain were seen in TC but not PPT mice. When an enzyme for fatty acid beta-oxidation namely medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) was determined in tumor grafts; tumors from PPT mice showed more MCAD than those from TC mice. This suggests that PP56 stimulated fatty acid beta-oxidation in MiaPaCa2 cells in vivo. In keeping with this notion, PPT mice had decreased plasma free fatty acids. In vitro, we demonstrated that MiaPaCa2 cells consumed more fatty acids in the presence of PP56. In another experiment, we infused PP56 or vehicle in normal mice and found that PP56 decreased circulating glucose in the animals. We also showed that PP56 increased glucose transport in L6 skeletal muscle cells in vitro. In conclusion, PP56 increases the turnover of circulating nutrients such as glucose and helps maintain energy homeostasis in mice with pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) via its guanylyl cyclase-A (GC-A) receptor participates in regulation of arterial blood pressure and vascular volume. Previous studies demonstrated that concerted renal diuretic/natriuretic and endothelial permeability effects of ANP cooperate in intravascular volume regulation. We show that the microvascular endothelial contribution to the hypovolaemic action of ANP can be measured by the magnitude of the ANP-induced increase in blood-to-tissue albumin transport, measured as plasma albumin clearance corrected for intravascular volume change, relative to the corresponding increase in ANP-induced renal water excretion. We used a two-tracer method with isotopically labelled albumin to measure clearances in skin and skeletal muscle of: (i) C57BL6 mice; (ii) mice with endothelium-restricted deletion of GC-A (floxed GC-A x tie2-Cre: endothelial cell (EC) GC-A knockout (KO)); and (iii) control littermates (floxed GC-A mice with normal GC-A expression levels). Comparison of albumin clearances in hypervolaemic EC GC-A KO mice with normovolaemic littermates demonstrated that skeletal muscle albumin clearance with ANP treatment accounts for at most 30% of whole body clearance required for ANP to regulate plasma volume. Skin microcirculation responded to ANP similarly. Measurements of permeability to a high molecular mass contrast agent (35 kD Gadomer) by dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) enabled repeated measures in individual animals and confirmed small increases in muscle and skin microvascular permeability after ANP. These quantitative methods will enable further evaluation of the contribution of ANP-dependent microvascular beds (such as gastro-intestinal tract) to plasma volume regulation.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) activates innate immunity involving Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 and TLR-4 signaling. Leukocyte migration and vascular permeability contribute to postischemic tissue damage. We hypothesized that TLR-2 and TLR-4 directly mediate leukocyte migration and vascular permeability during I/R. We used in vivo microscopy on postischemic murine cremaster muscle to quantify leukocyte adhesion as well as transendothelial and interstitial migration in sham-operated wild-type mice and in wild-type, TLR-2(-/-), and TLR-4-mutant mice 30 and 120 min after I/R. Alterations in fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran leakage across cremasteric venules were determined as a measure of endothelial permeability. I/R-induced leukocyte adhesion in TLR-2(-/-) and TLR-4-mutant mice was comparable to that in wild-type mice. The number of transmigrated leukocytes was increased upon I/R in wild-type mice as compared with the sham-operated group. In contrast, leukocyte transmigration was significantly attenuated in TLR-2(-/-) but not in TLR-4-mutant mice. Motility and polarization of interstitially migrating leukocytes did not significantly differ in TLR-2(-/-) and TLR-4-mutant mice from wild-type mice. Postischemic vascular leakage was significantly lower in both TLR-2(-/-) and TLR-4-mutant than in wild-type mice. We conclude that both TLR-2 signaling and TLR-4 signaling enhance postischemic vascular permeability and that TLR-2 has additional effects on the transendothelial migration of leukocytes at the postischemic vascular wall.

Abstract
Neurogenic inflammation is known to induce lowering of interstitial fluid pressure (Pif) in mouse skin. This study examined the possible role of mast cell activation secondary to neuropeptide release in lowering of Pifby using KitW/ KitW-vmice, which are devoid of mast cells, including connective tissue mast cells (CTMCs). Pifwas measured in paw skin of anesthetized (fentanyl-fluanison and midazolam, 1:1) mice with glass capillaries connected to a servo-controlled counterpressure system. In contrast to wild-type mice, intravenous administration of mast cell-activating compound 48/80 induced no lowering of Pifin KitW/ KitW-vmice. Intravenous challenge with substance P (SP), calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), or capsaicin induced a significant ( P < 0.05) lowering of Pifin wild-type mice to −2.16 ± 0.28, −1.96 ± 0.11, and −2.22 ± 0.19 mmHg, respectively, compared with vehicle (−0.49 ± 0.11 mmHg). In KitW/ KitW-vmice the Pifresponse to SP was completely abolished (−0.53 ± 0.32 mmHg) while the response to CGRP and capsaicin was attenuated (−1.33 ± 0.13 and −1.42 ± 0.13 mmHg, respectively) although significantly ( P < 0.05) lowered compared with vehicle. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed no difference in distribution or density of SP- and CGRP-immunoreactive fibers in paws of KitW/ KitW-vcompared with wild-type mice. We conclude that lowering of Pifnormally depends on mast cells. However, the sensory nerves can also elicit a lowering of Pifthat is independent of mast cells.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is a common clinical event with the potential to seriously affect, and sometimes kill, the patient. Interruption of blood supply causes ischemia, which rapidly damages metabolically active tissues. Paradoxically, restoration of blood flow to the ischemic tissues initiates a cascade of pathology that leads to additional cell or tissue injury. I/R is a potent inducer of complement activation that results in the production of a number of inflammatory mediators. The use of specific inhibitors to block complement activation has been shown to prevent local tissue injury after I/R. Clinical and experimental studies in gut, kidney, limb, and liver have shown that I/R results in local activation of the complement system and leads to the production of the complement factors C3a, C5a, and the membrane attack complex. The novel inhibitors of complement products may find wide clinical application because there are no effective drug therapies currently available to treat I/R injuries.

Abstract
Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) are important mediators produced during inflammation. We hypothesized that the pro-inflammatory cytokine response in the interstitial fluid (IF) is different from that in serum, and we aimed at quantifying the amount of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta in the IF. By centrifugation of rat skin at < 424 g pure IF is extracted. Using ELISA such fluid was analysed for cytokines in back and/or paw skin of pentobarbital-anaesthetized rats, after either induction of endotoxaemia or ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. During endotoxaemia, TNF-alpha increased in the IF from 0 in control to 640 +/- 100 pg ml(-1) (mean +/-s.e.m.) after 90 min, with the serum concentration being 5-10 times higher at all time points. The response pattern of IL-1beta after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge differed greatly from that of TNF-alpha with a large increase in IF from 390 +/- 90 to 28 000 +/- 1500 pg ml(-1) after 210 min, and a significantly smaller increase in serum (600 +/- 45 pg ml(-1)). During reperfusion of the hind paw after 2 h of ischaemia, there was a gradual increase of TNF-alpha in both IF of the paw skin and serum after 3 min of reperfusion. Both declined after 20 min. The pattern for IL-1beta differed, increasing significantly less in serum (25 +/- 15 pg ml(-1) after 20 min of reperfusion) than in the IF (1100 +/- 200 pg ml(-1)). Immunostaining of the inflamed tissues showed increased expression of the two cytokines in cells of both epidermis and dermis compared to controls. Subdermal injections of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta at the same concentrations found in IF after LPS infusion affected interstitial fluid pressure significantly. Local TNF-alpha production dominates after I/R injury, whereas in endotoxaemia systemic production predominates. For IL-1beta local production dominates in both conditions. Thus, there is a differential pattern of cytokine production and the current method allows the study of the role of cytokines in IF during different inflammatory reactions.
