Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis is one of the leading causes of death. Treatment attempts targeting the immune response regularly fail in clinical trials. As HCMV latency can modulate the immune response and changes the immune cell composition, we hypothesized that HCMV serostatus affects mortality in sepsis patients. METHODS We determined the HCMV serostatus (i.e., latency) of 410 prospectively enrolled patients of the multicenter SepsisDataNet.NRW study. Patients were recruited according to the SEPSIS-3 criteria and clinical data were recorded in an observational approach. We quantified 13 cytokines at Days 1, 4, and 8 after enrollment. Proteomics data were analyzed from the plasma samples of 171 patients. RESULTS The 30-day mortality was higher in HCMV-seropositive patients than in seronegative sepsis patients (38% vs. 25%, respectively; p = 0.008; HR, 1.656; 95% CI 1.135-2.417). This effect was observed independent of age (p = 0.010; HR, 1.673; 95% CI 1.131-2.477). The predictive value on the outcome of the increased concentrations of IL-6 was present only in the seropositive cohort (30-day mortality, 63% vs. 24%; HR 3.250; 95% CI 2.075-5.090; p < 0.001) with no significant differences in serum concentrations of IL-6 between the two groups. Procalcitonin and IL-10 exhibited the same behavior and were predictive of the outcome only in HCMV-seropositive patients. CONCLUSION We suggest that the predictive value of inflammation-associated biomarkers should be re-evaluated with regard to the HCMV serostatus. Targeting HCMV latency might open a new approach to selecting suitable patients for individualized treatment in sepsis.

Abstract
Modern combat-related injuries are often associated with acute polytrauma. As a consequence of severe combat-related injuries, a dysregulated immune response results in serious infectious complications. The gram-negative bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that often causes life-threatening bloodstream, lung, bone, urinary tract, and wound infections following combat-related injuries. The rise in the number of multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa strains has elevated its importance to civilian clinicians and military medicine. Development of novel therapeutics and treatment options for P. aeruginosa infections is urgently needed. During the process of drug discovery and therapeutic testing, in vivo testing in animal models is a critical step in the bench-to-bedside approach, and required for Food and Drug Administration approval. Here, we review current and past literature with a focus on combat injury-relevant animal models often used to understand infection development, the interplay between P. aeruginosa and the host, and evaluation of novel treatments. Specifically, this review focuses on the following animal infection models: wound, burn, bone, lung, urinary tract, foreign body, and sepsis.

Multiplexed MRM-based protein quantification of putative prognostic biomarkers for chronic kidney disease progression in plasma. Sci Rep 2020; 10:4815. [PMID: 32179759 PMCID: PMC7076027 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-61496-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2019] [Accepted: 01/29/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Current diagnostic measures for Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) include detection of reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria, which have suboptimal accuracies in predicting disease progression. The disease complexity and heterogeneity underscore the need for multiplex quantification of different markers. The goal of this study was to determine the association of six previously reported CKD-associated plasma proteins [B2M (Beta-2-microglobulin), SERPINF1 (Pigment epithelium-derived factor), AMBP (Protein AMBP), LYZ (Lysozyme C), HBB (Hemoglobin subunit beta) and IGHA1 (Immunoglobulin heavy constant alpha 1)], as measured in a multiplex format, with kidney function, and outcome. Antibody-free, multiple reaction monitoring mass spectrometry (MRM) assays were developed, characterized for their analytical performance, and used for the analysis of 72 plasma samples from a patient cohort with longitudinal follow-up. The MRM significantly correlated (Rho = 0.5–0.9) with results from respective ELISA. Five proteins [AMBP, B2M, LYZ, HBB and SERPINF1] were significantly associated with eGFR, with the three former also associated with unfavorable outcome. The combination of these markers provided stronger associations with outcome (p < 0.0001) compared to individual markers. Collectively, our study describes a multiplex assay for absolute quantification and verification analysis of previously described putative CKD prognostic markers, laying the groundwork for further use in prospective validation studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The reduced glomerular filtration rate in the advanced stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) leads to plasma accumulation of uraemic retention solutes including proteins. It has been hypothesized that these changes may, at least in part, be responsible for CKD-associated morbidity and mortality. However, most studies focused on the role of individual proteins, while a holistic, large-scale, integrative approach may generate significant additional insight. METHODS In a discovery study, we analysed the plasma proteome of patients with stage 2-3 CKD (n = 14) and stage 5 CKD with haemodialysis (HD) (n = 15), using high-resolution LC-MS/MS analysis. Selected results were validated in a cohort of 40 patients with different CKD stages with or without HD, using ELISA. RESULTS Of a total of 2054 detected proteins, 127 displayed lower, while 206 displayed higher abundance in the plasma of patients on HD. Molecular pathway analysis confirmed the modification of known processes involved in CKD complications, including decreased haemostasis and increased inflammation, complement activation and vascular damage. In addition, we identified the plasma increase during CKD progression of lysozyme C and leucine-rich alpha-2 glycoprotein, two proteins related to vascular damage and heart failure. High level of leucine-rich alpha-2 glycoprotein was associated with higher mortality in stage 5 CKD patients on HD. CONCLUSIONS This study provides for the first time a comprehensive assessment of CKD plasma proteome, contributing to new knowledge and potential markers of CKD. These results will serve as a basis for future studies investigating the relevance of these molecules in CKD associated morbidity and mortality.
