Abstract
Burn injuries are a significant cause of death worldwide, leading to systemic inflammation, multiple organ failure and sepsis. The progression of burn injury is explicitly correlated with mitochondrial homeostasis, which is disrupted by the hyperinflammation induced by burn injury, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction and cell death. Mitophagy plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular homeostasis by selectively removing damaged mitochondria. A growing body of evidence from various disease models suggest that pharmacological interventions targeting mitophagy could be a promising therapeutic strategy. Recent studies have shown that mitophagy plays a crucial role in wound healing and burn injury. Furthermore, chemicals targeting mitophagy have also been shown to improve wound recovery, highlighting the potential for novel therapeutic strategies based on an in-depth exploration of the molecular mechanisms regulating mitophagy and its association with skin wound healing.

Abstract
Burn injury is associated with muscle wasting, though the involved signaling mechanisms are not well understood. In this study, we aimed to examine the role of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) in signaling hyper-inflammation and consequent skeletal muscle impairment after burn. Sprague Dawley rats were randomly assigned into three groups: (1) sham burn, (2) burn, (3) burn/treatment. Animals in group 2 and group 3 received scald burn on 30% of total body surface area (TBSA) and immediately treated with chicken IgY and anti-HMGB1 antibody, respectively. Muscle tissues and other samples were collected at 3-days after burn. Body mass and wet/dry weights of the hind limb muscles (total and individually) were substantially decreased in burn rats. Acute burn provoked the mitochondrial stress and cell death and enhanced the protein ubiquitination and LC3A/B levels that are involved in protein degradation in muscle tissues. Further, an increase in muscle inflammatory infiltrate associated with increased differentiation, maturation and proinflammatory activation of bone marrow myeloid cells and αβ CD4+ T and γδ T lymphocytes was noted in in circulation and spleen of burn rats. Treatment with one dose of HMGB1 neutralizing antibody reduced the burn wound size and preserved the wet/dry weights of the hind limb muscles associated with a control in the markers of cell death and autophagy pathways in burn rats. Further, anti-HMGB1 antibody inhibited the myeloid and T cells inflammatory activation and subsequent dysregulated inflammatory infiltrate in the muscle tissues of burn rats. We conclude that neutralization of HMGB1-dependent proteolytic and inflammatory responses has potential beneficial effects in preventing the muscle loss after severe burn injury.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Background: Sepsis is the leading cause of mortality among burn patients that survive acute resuscitation. Clinical criteria have poor diagnostic value for burn-induced sepsis, making it difficult to diagnose. Protein biomarkers (e.g., procalcitonin) have been examined with limited success. We aimed to explore other biomarkers related to mitochondria (mitochondrial DNA [mtDNA]) and mitochondrial function of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) for sepsis diagnosis in burn patients. Methods: We conducted a follow-up analysis of a single center, prospective observational study of subjects (n = 10 healthy volunteers, n = 24 burn patients) to examine the diagnostic value of mtDNA and PBMC respirometry. Patients were enrolled regardless of sepsis status and followed longitudinally. Patient samples were classified as septic or not based on empiric clinical criteria. Isolated PBMCs were loaded into a high-resolution respirometer, and circulating mtDNA was measured with a PCR-based assay. Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) criteria were also compared. Results: The SOFA criteria comparing septic versus before/nonseptic patients revealed significantly higher heart rate ( P = 0.012) and lower mean arterial pressure ( P = 0.039) in burn sepsis. MtDNA was significantly elevated in septic burn patients compared with healthy volunteers ( P < 0.0001) and nonseptic patients ( P < 0.0001), with no significant difference between healthy volunteers and nonseptic burn patients ( P = 0.187). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for mtDNA was 0.685 (95% confidence interval = 0.50-0.86). For PBMC respirometry, burn patients exhibited increased routine and maximal respiration potential compared with healthy volunteers. However, no difference was found between nonseptic and septic patient samples. A subanalysis revealed a significant mortality difference in PBMC respirometry after sepsis diagnosis, wherein survivors had higher routine respiration ( P = 0.003) and maximal respiration ( P = 0.011) compared with nonsurvivors. Conclusion: Our findings reveal that mtDNA may have diagnostic value for burn sepsis, whereas PBMC respirometry is nonspecifically elevated in burns, but may have value in mortality prognosis. A larger, multisite study is warranted for further validity of the diagnostic value of mtDNA and PBMC respirometry as biomarkers for prognosis of sepsis and outcomes in burn patients.

Abstract
Burn injury is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide and places a tremendous economic burden on society. Systemic inflammatory responses induced by thermal burn injury can cause muscle wasting, a severe involuntary loss of skeletal muscle that adversely affects the survival and functional outcomes of these patients. Currently, no pharmacological interventions are available for the treatment of thermal burn-induced skeletal muscle wasting. Elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-6 (IL-6), are important hallmarks of severe burn injury. The levels of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3)-a downstream component of IL-6 inflammatory signaling-are elevated with muscle wasting in various pro-catabolic conditions, and STAT3 has been implicated in the regulation of skeletal muscle atrophy. Here, we tested the effects of the STAT3-specific signaling inhibitor C188-9 on thermal burn injury-induced skeletal muscle wasting in vivo and on C2C12 myotube atrophy in vitro after the administration of plasma from burn model mice. In mice, thermal burn injury severity dependently increased IL-6 in the plasma and tibialis anterior muscles and activated the STAT3 (increased ratio of phospho-STAT3/STAT3) and ubiquitin-proteasome proteolytic pathways (increased Atrogin-1/MAFbx and MuRF1). These effects resulted in skeletal muscle atrophy and reduced grip strength. In murine C2C12 myotubes, plasma from burn mice activated the same inflammatory and proteolytic pathways, leading to myotube atrophy. In mice with burn injury, the intraperitoneal injection of C188-9 (50 mg/kg) reduced activation of the STAT3 and ubiquitin-proteasome proteolytic pathways, reversed skeletal muscle atrophy, and increased grip strength. Similarly, pretreatment of murine C2C12 myotubes with C188-9 (10 µM) reduced activation of the same inflammatory and proteolytic pathways, and ameliorated myotube atrophy induced by plasma taken from burn model mice. Collectively, these results indicate that pharmacological inhibition of STAT3 signaling may be a novel therapeutic strategy for thermal burn-induced skeletal muscle wasting.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Our previous study confirmed that cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) leads to acute lung injury (ALI) via inducing high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) release. Recent research showed that HMGB1 promotes pulmonary injury mainly via exosomes transport. Currently, alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) necroptosis has been demonstrated to be involved in ALI. However, it is unknown whether exosomal inflammatory cytokine HMGB1 promotes ALI by inducing AEC necroptosis, and its underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Here, a prospective cohort study was carried out, in which plasma samples from 21 CPB patients were isolated at four specific time points: pre-CPB, 2, 12, and 24 h after initiation of CPB. Plasma exosomes were extracted via ultra-high-speed centrifugation and cocultured with AEC cell line-A549 cells at increasing concentrations of 50, 100, and 150 μg/mL. Then, HMGB1 antagonist-Box A and mtDNA deficiency ethidium bromide (EtBr) were applied to explore the underlying role of exosomal HMGB1 and cytoplasm mitochondrial DNA in AEC. Western blot analysis showed that plasma exosomal HMGB1 expression gradually increased and peaked at 24 h after CPB. Twenty-four-hour treatment of CPB-derived exosomes at 150 μg/mL for 24 h could induce necroptosis by promoting mitochondrial fission and further elevating cytoplasm mtDNA levels in A549 cells, which was successfully blocked by Box A or EtBr. Most importantly, EtBr significantly inhibited cytoplasm mtDNA downstream guanosine monophosphate (GMP)-AMP synthase (cGAS)/stimulator of interferon gene (STING) signal pathway. Collectively, these data demonstrate that CPB-derived plasma exosomal HMGB1 contributes to AEC necroptosis through the mtDNA/cGAS/STING pathway.

Abstract
Muscle wasting is common and persistent in severely burned patients, worsened by immobilization during treatment. In this review, we posit two major phenotypes of muscle wasting after severe burn, cachexia and sarcopenia, each with distinguishing characteristics to result in muscle atrophy; these characteristics are also likely present in other critically ill populations. An online search was conducted from the PubMed database and other available online resources and we manually extracted published articles in a systematic mini review. We describe the current definitions and characteristics of cachexia and sarcopenia and relate these to muscle wasting after severe burn. We then discuss these putative mechanisms of muscle atrophy in this condition. Severe burn and immobilization have distinctive patterns in mediating muscle wasting and muscle atrophy. In considering these two pathological phenotypes (cachexia and sarcopenia), we propose two independent principal causes and mechanisms of muscle mass loss after burns: (1) inflammation-induced cachexia, leading to proteolysis and protein degradation, and (2) sarcopenia/immobility that signals inhibition of expected increases in protein synthesis in response to protein loss. Because both are present following severe burn, these should be considered independently in devising treatments. Discussing cachexia and sarcopenia as independent mechanisms of severe burn-initiated muscle wasting is explored. Recognition of these associated mechanisms will likely improve outcomes.

From the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 to neuropathic pain: a potentially novel target. Pain Rep 2021; 6:e898.

Abstract
The low-density lipoprotein receptor–related protein 1 plays a major role in the regulation of neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration, neuroregeneration, neuropathic pain, and deficient cognitive functions. This review describes the roles of the low-density lipoprotein receptor–related protein 1 (LRP-1) in inflammatory pathways, nerve nerve degeneration and -regeneration and in neuropathic pain. Induction of LRP-1 is able to reduce the activation of the proinflammatory NFκB-mediated pathway and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) c-Jun N-terminal kinase and p38 signaling pathways, in turn decreasing the production of inflammatory mediators. Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 activation also decreases reactive astrogliosis and polarizes microglial cells and macrophages from a proinflammatory phenotype (M1) to an anti-inflammatory phenotype (M2), attenuating the neuroinflammatory environment. Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 can also modulate the permeability of the blood–brain barrier and the blood–nerve barrier, thus regulating the infiltration of systemic insults and cells into the central and the peripheral nervous system, respectively. Furthermore, LRP-1 is involved in the maturation of oligodendrocytes and in the activation, migration, and repair phenotype of Schwann cells, therefore suggesting a major role in restoring the myelin sheaths upon injury. Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 activation can indirectly decrease neurodegeneration and neuropathic pain by attenuation of the inflammatory environment. Moreover, LRP-1 agonists can directly promote neural cell survival and neurite sprouting, decrease cell death, and attenuate pain and neurological disorders by the inhibition of MAPK c-Jun N-terminal kinase and p38-pathway and activation of MAPK extracellular signal–regulated kinase pathway. In addition, activation of LRP-1 resulted in better outcomes for neuropathies such as Alzheimer disease, nerve injury, or diabetic peripheral neuropathy, attenuating neuropathic pain and improving cognitive functions. To summarize, LRP-1 plays an important role in the development of different experimental diseases of the nervous system, and it is emerging as a very interesting therapeutic target.

Abstract
Despite advances in treatment and care, burn trauma remains the fourth most common type of traumatic injury. Burn-induced cardiac failure is a key factor for patient mortality, especially during the initial post-burn period (the first 24 to 48 h). Mitochondria, among the most important subcellular organelles in cardiomyocytes, are a central player in determining the severity of myocardial damage. Defects in mitochondrial function and structure are involved in pathogenesis of numerous myocardial injuries and cardiovascular diseases. In this article, we comprehensively review the current findings on cardiac mitochondrial pathological changes and summarize burn-impaired mitochondrial respiration capacity and energy supply, induced mitochondrial oxidative stress, and increased cell death. The molecular mechanisms underlying these alterations are discussed, along with the possible influence of other biological variables. We hope this review will provide useful information to explore potential therapeutic approaches that target mitochondria for cardiac protection following burn injury.

Abstract
Environmentally persistent free radicals (EPFRs) are easily generated in the combustion processes of municipal solid waste (MSW) and can cause adverse effects on human health. This study focuses on understanding the toxicity of EPFR particles (ZnO/MCB containing EPFRs) to human bronchial epithelial cell lines BEAS-2B and 16HBE, murine macrophages Raw264.7, and the lung of BALB/c mice after a short exposure (7 days). Exposure of BEAS-2B, 16HBE, and Raw264.7 cells to ZnO/MCB particles significantly increased the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and perturbed levels of intracellular redox conditions (decreased the intracellular GSH level and the activity of cytosolic SOD, and stimulated oxidative stress related proteins such as HO-1 and Nrf2). EPFR particles decreased the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and induced cell apoptosis, including the activation of Caspase-3, Bax, and Bcl-2 apoptotic signalling pathways. A signature inflammatory condition was observed in both cell models and the mouse model for lung lesions. Our data suggest that EPFRs in particles have greater toxicity to lung cells and tissues that are potential health hazards to human lung.

Abstract
The insulin signaling pathway plays a pivotal role in glucose metabolism and metabolic homeostasis. Disruption of this pathway is commonly seen in critical illness such as following severe burn injuries where homeostatic control is lost, leading to "insulin resistance" with poor blood glucose control. The aberrant signaling pathways involved in insulin resistance following burn injury include increases in hyperglycemic stress hormones, pro-inflammatory cytokines and free radical production. Leakage of mitochondrial sequestered self-antigens and signaling between mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum also contribute to insulin resistance. Greater understanding of molecular processes involved in burn-related insulin resistance could potentially lead to the development of novel therapeutic approaches to improve patient management.

Abstract
Burn injury in children results in a systemic inflammatory reaction as well as a stress response. Consequences of these non-specific adaptive responses include resorptive bone loss and muscle catabolism. These adverse events can result in a post-burn fracture rate of approximately 15% and long-term muscle weakness that prolongs recovery. A randomized controlled trial of a single dose of the bisphosphonate pamidronate within the first ten days of burn injury resulted in the prevention of resorptive bone loss and continuous bone accrual. Examining the muscle protein kinetics in pediatric burn patients enrolled in that randomized controlled trial revealed that those who had been given the single dose bisphosphonate experienced preservation of muscle mass and strength. An in vitro study of mouse myoblasts incubated with serum from patients who participated in the randomized controlled study demonstrated that mouse myoblasts exposed to serum from patients given the single dose bisphosphonate exhibited greater myotube diameter than those from burned children given placebo. Moreover, the serum from bisphosphonate treated patients stimulated the protein anabolic pathways and suppressed protein catabolic pathways in these cells. Inasmuch as incubation of the myotubes with an antibody to transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) rescued myotube size in the cultures with serum from patients who received the placebo to the same magnitude as cultures with serum from patients treated with single dose bisphosphonate, we postulate that post-burn bone resorption liberates muscle catabolic factors which cause muscle wasting. Future uses of bisphosphonates could include studies designed to prevent short-term acute bone resorption in conditions that may result in muscle wasting as well as in short-term interventions in chronic inflammatory conditions which may flare and cause acute bone and muscle loss.

Abstract
Background: Burn injury induces long-term skeletal muscle pathology. We hypothesized EPO could attenuate burn-induced muscle fiber atrophy. Methods: Rats were allocated into four groups: a sham burn group, an untreated burn group subjected to third degree hind paw burn, and two burn groups treated with weekly or daily EPO for four weeks. Gastrocnemius muscle was analyzed at four weeks post-burn. Results: EPO attenuated the reduction of mean myofiber cross-sectional area post-burn and the level of the protective effect was no significant difference between two EPO-treated groups (p=0.784). Furthermore, EPO decreased the expression of atrophy-related ubiquitin ligase, atrogin-1, which was up-regulated in response to burn. Compared to untreated burn rats, those receiving weekly or daily EPO groups had less cell apoptosis by TUNEL assay. EPO decreased the expression of cleaved caspase 3 (key factor in the caspase-dependent pathway) and apoptosis-inducing factor (implicated in the caspase-independent pathway) after burn. Furthermore, EPO alleviated connective tissue overproduction following burn via transforming growth factor beta 1-Smad2/3 pathway. Daily EPO group caused significant erythrocytosis compared with untreated burn group but not weekly EPO group. Conclusion: EPO therapy attenuated skeletal muscle apoptosis and fibrosis at four weeks post-burn. Weekly EPO may be a safe and effective option in muscle wasting post-burn.

Abstract
Severe burn injury results in systemic disruption of metabolic regulations and impaired cardiac function. Restoration of hemodynamic homeostasis utilizing intravenous (IV) fluids is critical for acute care of the burn victim. However, the effects of burns and resuscitation on cardiomyocyte mitochondria are currently unknown. The purpose of this study is to determine cardiac mitochondrial function in a swine burn model with subsequent resuscitation using either crystalloids or colloids. Anesthetized Yorkshire swine (n = 23) sustained 40% total body surface area burns and received IV crystalloids (n = 11) or colloids (n = 12) after recovery from anesthesia. Non-burned swine served as controls (n = 9). After euthanasia at 48 h, heart tissues were harvested, permeabilized, and analyzed by high-resolution respirometry. Citrate synthase (CS) activity was measured, and Western blots were performed to quantify proteins associated with mitochondrial fusion (OPA1), fission (FIS1), and mitophagy (PINK1). There were no differences in state 2 respiration or maximal oxidative phosphorylation. Coupled complex 1 respiration decreased, while uncoupled state 4O and complex II increased significantly due to burn injury, particularly in animals receiving colloids (P < 0.05). CS activity and electron transfer coupling efficiency were significantly lower in burned animals, particularly with colloid treatment (P < 0.05). Protein analysis revealed increased FIS1 but no differences in mitophagy in cardiac tissue from colloid-treated compared with crystalloid-treated swine. Taken together, severe burns alter mitochondrial respiration in heart tissue, which may be exacerbated by early IV resuscitation with colloids. Early IV burn resuscitation with colloids may require close hemodynamic observation. Mitochondrial stabilizing agents incorporated into resuscitation fluids may help the hemodynamic response to burn injury.
