Ni J, Chen X, Chen N, Yan Y, Wu Y, Li B, Huang H, Tong H, Liu Y, Dai N. Erianin alleviates LPS-induced acute lung injury via antagonizing P-selectin-mediated neutrophil adhesion function. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 331:118336. [PMID: 38750983 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2024.118336] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2024] [Revised: 04/28/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Dendrobium officinale Kimura et Migo, known as "Tiepi Shihu" in traditional Chinese medicine, boasts an extensive history of medicinal use documented in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. "Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing" records D. officinale as a superior herbal medicine for fortifying "Yin" and invigorating the five viscera. Erianin, a benzidine compound, emerges as a prominent active constituent derived from D. officinale, with the pharmacological efficacy of D. officinale closely linked to the anti-inflammatory properties of erianin. AIM OF THE STUDY Acute lung injury (ALI) is a substantial threat to global public health, while P-selectin stands out as a promising novel target for treating acute inflammatory conditions. This investigation aims to explore the therapeutic potential of erianin in ALI treatment and elucidate the underlying mechanisms. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The effectiveness of erianin in conferring protection against ALI was investigated through comprehensive histopathological and biochemical analyses of lung tissues and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) in an in vivo model of LPS-induced ALI in mice. The impact of erianin on fMLP-induced neutrophil chemotaxis was quantitatively assessed using the Transwell and Zigmond chamber, respectively. To determine the therapeutic target of erianin and elucidate their binding capability, a series of sophisticated assays were employed, including drug affinity responsive target stability (DARTS) assay, cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA), and molecular docking analyses. RESULTS Erianin demonstrated a significant alleviation of LPS-induced acute lung injury, characterized by reduced total cell and neutrophil counts and diminished total protein contents in BALF. Moreover, erianin exhibited a capacity to decrease proinflammatory cytokine production in both lung tissues and BALF. Notably, erianin effectively suppressed the activation of NF-κB signaling in the lung tissues of LPS- challenged mice; however, it did not exhibit in vitro inhibitory effects on inflammation in LPS-induced human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMECs). Additionally, erianin blocked the adhesion and rolling of neutrophils on HPMECs. While erianin did not influence endothelial P-selectin expression or cytomembrane translocation, it significantly reduced the ligand affinity between P-selectin and P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1). CONCLUSIONS Erianin inhibits P-selectin-mediated neutrophil adhesion to activated endothelium, thereby alleviating ALI. The present study highlights the potential of erianin as a promising lead for ALI treatment.

Abstract
Delayed graft function (DGF) is a common complication after kidney transplant. Despite extensive literature on the topic, the extant definition of DGF has not been conducive to advancing the scientific understanding of the influences and mechanisms contributing to its onset, duration, resolution, or long-term prognostic implications. In 2022, the National Kidney Foundation sponsored a multidisciplinary scientific workshop to comprehensively review the current state of knowledge about the diagnosis, therapy, and management of DGF and conducted a survey of relevant stakeholders on topics of clinical and regulatory interest. In this Special Report, we propose and defend a novel taxonomy for the clinical and research definitions of DGF, address key regulatory and clinical practice issues surrounding DGF, review the current state of therapies to reduce and/or attenuate DGF, offer considerations for clinical practice related to the outpatient management of DGF, and outline a prospective research and policy agenda.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a complex and heterogeneous disease with high incidence and mortality, posing a serious threat to human life and health. Usually, in clinical practice, AKI is caused by crush injury, nephrotoxin exposure, ischemia-reperfusion injury, or sepsis. Therefore, most AKI models for pharmacological experimentation are based on this. The current research promises to develop new biological therapies, including antibody therapy, non-antibody protein therapy, cell therapy, and RNA therapy, that could help mitigate the development of AKI. These approaches can promote renal repair and improve systemic hemodynamics after renal injury by reducing oxidative stress, inflammatory response, organelles damage, and cell death, or activating cytoprotective mechanisms. However, no candidate drugs for AKI prevention or treatment have been successfully translated from bench to bedside. This article summarizes the latest progress in AKI biotherapy, focusing on potential clinical targets and novel treatment strategies that merit further investigation in future pre-clinical and clinical studies.

Abstract
Endothelial cell adhesion molecules have long been proposed as promising targets in many pathologies. Despite promising preclinical data, several efforts to develop small molecule inhibitors or monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) ended in clinical-stage failure. In parallel, many well-validated approaches for targeting CAMs with nanomedicine (NM) were reported over the years. A wide range of potential applications has been demonstrated in various preclinical studies, from drug delivery to the tumor vasculature, imaging of the inflamed endothelium, or blocking immune cells infiltration. However, no NM drug candidate emerged further into clinical development. In this review, we will summarize the most advanced examples of CAM-targeted NMs and juxtapose them with known traditional drugs against CAMs, in an attempt to identify important translational hurdles. Most importantly, we will summarize the proposed strategies to enhance endothelial CAM targeting by NMs, in an attempt to offer a catalog of tools for further development.

Abstract
Events mediated by the P-selectin/PSGL-1 pathway play a critical role in the initiation and propagation of venous thrombosis by facilitating the accumulation of leukocytes and platelets within the growing thrombus. Activated platelets and endothelium express P-selectin, which binds P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) that is expressed on the surface of all leukocytes. We developed a pegylated glycomimetic of the N terminus of PSGL-1, PEG40-GSnP-6 (P-G6), which proved to be a highly potent P-selectin inhibitor with a favorable pharmacokinetic profile for clinical translation. P-G6 inhibits human and mouse platelet-monocyte and platelet-neutrophil aggregation in vitro and blocks microcirculatory platelet-leukocyte interactions in vivo. Administration of P-G6 reduces thrombus formation in a nonocclusive model of deep vein thrombosis with a commensurate reduction in leukocyte accumulation, but without disruption of hemostasis. P-G6 potently inhibits the P-selectin/PSGL-1 pathway and represents a promising drug candidate for the prevention of venous thrombosis without increased bleeding risk.

Abstract
Carbohydrates - namely glycans - decorate every cell in the human body and most secreted proteins. Advances in genomics, glycoproteomics and tools from chemical biology have made glycobiology more tractable and understandable. Dysregulated glycosylation plays a major role in disease processes from immune evasion to cognition, sparking research that aims to target glycans for therapeutic benefit. The field is now poised for a boom in drug development. As a harbinger of this activity, glycobiology has already produced several drugs that have improved human health or are currently being translated to the clinic. Focusing on three areas - selectins, Siglecs and glycan-targeted antibodies - this Review aims to tell the stories behind therapies inspired by glycans and to outline how the lessons learned from these approaches are paving the way for future glycobiology-focused therapeutics.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint inhibition targeting T cells has shown tremendous promise in the treatment of many cancer types and are now standard therapies for patients. While standard therapies have focused on PD-1 and CTLA-4 blockade, additional immune checkpoints have shown promise in promoting anti-tumor immunity. PSGL-1, primarily known for its role in cellular migration, has also been shown to function as a negative regulator of CD4+ T cells in numerous disease settings including cancer. PSGL-1 is highly expressed on T cells and can engage numerous ligands that impact signaling pathways, which may modulate CD4+ T cell differentiation and function. PSGL-1 engagement in the tumor microenvironment may promote CD4+ T cell exhaustion pathways that favor tumor growth. Here we highlight that blocking the PSGL-1 pathway on CD4+ T cells may represent a new cancer therapy approach to eradicate tumors.

Abstract
Leukocyte recruitment is a highly controlled cascade of interactions between proteins expressed by the endothelium and circulating leukocytes. The involvement of glycans and glycan-binding proteins in the leukocyte recruitment cascade has been well-characterised. However, our understanding of these interactions and their regulation has expanded substantially in recent years to include novel lectins and regulatory pathways. In this review, we discuss the role of glycans and glycan-binding proteins, mediating the interactions between endothelium and leukocytes both directly and indirectly. We also highlight recent findings of key enzymes involved in glycosylation which affect leukocyte recruitment. Finally, we investigate the potential of glycans and glycan binding proteins as therapeutic targets to modulate leukocyte recruitment and transmigration in inflammation.

Abstract
The interaction between leukemia cells and the bone microenvironment is known to provide drug resistance in leukemia cells. This phenomenon, called cell adhesion-mediated drug resistance (CAM-DR), has been demonstrated in many subsets of leukemia including B- and T-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B- and T-ALL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are surface molecules that allow cell-cell or cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) adhesion. CAMs not only recognize ligands for binding but also initiate the intracellular signaling pathways that are associated with cell proliferation, survival, and drug resistance upon binding to their ligands. Cadherins, selectins, and integrins are well-known cell adhesion molecules that allow binding to neighboring cells, ECM proteins, and soluble factors. The expression of cadherin, selectin, and integrin correlates with the increased drug resistance of leukemia cells. This paper will review the role of cadherins, selectins, and integrins in CAM-DR and the results of clinical trials targeting these molecules.

Abstract
Background Commonly used equations for calculating estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) are not applicable when serum creatinine (Scr) is rapidly changing like the post-transplant period. A new mathematical model applicable to the post-transplant period is required. Methods All 623 patients who underwent kidney transplantation from January 2008 to June 2018 at a single institute were included to validate the Scr mathematical equations, and 14,360 Scr laboratory results from the time of re-perfusion to 30 days post-transplantation were analyzed. Results In the validation of model equations, linear regression analysis yielded adjusted R2 values of 0.972 and 0.925 for equation 5 (applicable when renal function is changing) and equation 1 (applicable when renal function is unchanged), respectively. In selected cases, the population comprised individuals who presented an adjusted R2 value >0.95 with equation 5. Linear regression analysis showed that adjusted R2 values and Pearson's correlation coefficients for equation 5 and equation 1 were 0.994 and 0.997 (P<0.001) and 0.956 and 0.978 (P<0.001), respectively. Most of the eGFR formulas are mathematically applicable only if the creatinine input rate equals the creatinine output rate when comparing between commonly used eGFRs and creatinine clearance using the modeled equation. Conclusions The proposed equations can provide a new perspective for calculating renal function during the early phase of kidney transplantation. A study of a correlation between the equations and long-term graft outcomes is required.

Abstract
Objective: A systematic search was conducted to categorize targeted ultrasound contrast agents used in the detection of myocardial ischemia. Methods: The search identified 14 primary research articles published from 2000 to August 2019 that fulfilled the selection criteria. All studies were conducted in animal models ranging from mice to rhesus monkeys, with the most common targets being P-selectin and E-selectin. Results: These studies show that targeted ultrasound contrast agents produced greater signal enhancement in regions with prolonged ischemia and maintained enhancement hours after reperfusion. Conclusion: This review identified gaps in the literature, such as a need for comparative studies among different molecular markers and between current standard of care with the use of targeted contrast agents in cardiac ultrasound.

Abstract
PURPOSE In acute renal injury, diuretics are widely considered to be harmful. Nevertheless, they are used frequently after kidney transplantation. We hypothesized that diuretics administered in the early postoperative treatment after kidney transplantation increase the incidence of delayed graft function (DGF). METHODS In this monocentric, retrospective cohort analysis, we screened the closed files of all consecutive patients who underwent kidney transplantation from 2011 to 2017. The outcome variable was DGF, defined as at least 1 hemodialysis within 7 days postoperatively. To stratify for baseline characteristics such as waiting time or cold ischemic period, we employed a propensity score-matched analysis. Further statistical processing included basic descriptive statistics, Mann-Whitney U test, and binary logistic regression analysis. RESULTS The unmatched cohort included 445 patients and showed a significantly increased rate of DGF for patients who received either furosemide or mannitol or a combination of both (5% vs 25%; P < .001). Mannitol (odds ratio [OR]: 4.094) and furosemide (OR: 2.915) showed a significant correlation with DGF in the multivariate regression analysis. Propensity score-based matching resulted in a matched cohort of 214 patients with balanced baseline risk variables. In this matched cohort, the rate of DGF was significantly increased in patients who received diuretics in the early postoperative treatment (7% vs 16%; P = .031). CONCLUSION Our results show that postoperatively administered diuretics are associated with an increased rate of DGF even in a cohort with balanced preoperative risk variables. This study supports recently published reviews, which call diuretics in the transplantation process into question.

Abstract
Animal models and observational human data indicate that complement, including C5a, pathogenically participates in ischemia reperfusion (IR) injury that manifests as delayed graft function (DGF) following deceased donor kidney transplantation. We report on the safety/efficacy of anti-C5 monoclonal antibody eculizumab (Ecu) administered in the operating room prior to reperfusion, to prevent DGF in recipients of deceased donor kidney transplants in two related, investigator-sponsored, randomized controlled trials. Eight recipients from a single center were enrolled in a pilot study that led to a 19-subject multicenter trial. Together, 27 deceased donor kidney transplant recipients, 16 Ecu-treated and 11 controls, were treated with rabbit antithymocyte globulin, tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil with or without glucocorticoids, and followed for 6 months. Data analysis showed no epidemiological or transplant-related differences between study arms. Ecu was well tolerated with a similar severe adverse event incidence between groups. The DGF rate did not differ between Ecu-treated (44%) and control (45%, P = 1.0) subjects. Serum creatinine reduction in the first week after transplantation, and graft function up to 180-days post-transplant, were also similar. Ecu administration was safe but did not reduce the rate of DGF in a high-risk population of deceased donor recipients.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate whether magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate protects against renal ischemia‑reperfusion injury (RIRI), and to verify the underlying mechanisms. An RIRI rat model was induced by removing the right kidney, and exposing and clamping the left kidney. RIRI model rats were administered 30 mg/kg magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate for 3 days. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine levels in the blood of RIRI model rat were examined, compared with sham‑operated controls. Magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate suppressed the activities of tumor necrosis factor‑α, interleukin (IL)‑1β, IL‑6, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and caspase‑3 in RIRI model rats. Renal iNOS, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)‑2, phosphorylated‑signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) and intercellular adhesion molecule‑1 (ICAM‑1) protein expression levels were suppressed by magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate treatment in RIRI model rats. These findings suggested that magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate protects RIRI via anti‑inflammatory, ‑oxidative and ‑apoptotic mechanisms in an RIRI rat model. These results implicate magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate pretreatment as a potential approach to protect against RIRI via suppression of the iNOS, ICAM‑1, MMP‑2 and STAT3 signaling pathways.

Abstract
Obesity-induced insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome continue to pose an important public health challenge worldwide as they significantly increase the risk of type 2 diabetes and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Advances in the pathophysiologic understanding of this process has identified that chronic inflammation plays a pivotal role. In this regard, given that both animal models and human studies have demonstrated that the interaction of P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) with P-selectin is not only critical for normal immune response but also is upregulated in the setting of metabolic syndrome, PSGL-1/P-selectin interactions provide a novel target for preventing and treating resultant disease. Current approaches of interfering with PSGL-1/P-selectin interactions include targeted antibodies, recombinant immunoglobulins that competitively bind P-selectin, and synthetic molecular therapies. Experimental models as well as clinical trials assessing the role of these modalities in a variety of diseases have continued to contribute to the understanding of PSGL-1/P-selectin interactions and have demonstrated the difficulty in creating clinically relevant therapeutics. Most recently, however, computational simulations have further enhanced our understanding of the structural features of PSGL-1 and related glycomimetics, which are responsible for high-affinity selectin interactions. Leveraging these insights for the design of next generation agents has thus led to development of a promising synthetic method for generating PSGL-1 glycosulfopeptide mimetics for the treatment of metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
Delayed graft function (DGF) remains a major barrier to improved outcomes after kidney transplantation. High-risk transplant recipients can be identified, but no definitive prediction model exists. Novel biomarkers to predict DGF in the first hours post-transplant, such as neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), are under investigation. Donor management to minimize the profound physiological consequences of brain death is highly complex. A hormonal resuscitation package to manage the catecholamine "storm" that follows brain death is recommended. Donor pretreatment with dopamine prior to procurement lowers the rate of DGF. Hypothermic machine perfusion may offer a significant reduction in the rate of DGF vs simple cold storage, but costs need to be evaluated. Surgically, reducing warm ischemia time may be advantageous. Research into recipient preconditioning options has so far not generated clinically helpful interventions. Diagnostic criteria for DGF vary, but requirement for dialysis and/or persistent high serum creatinine is likely to remain key to diagnosis until current work on early biomarkers has progressed further. Management centers on close monitoring of graft (non)function and physiological parameters. With so many unanswered questions, substantial reductions in the toll of DGF in the near future seem unlikely but concentrated research on many levels offers long-term promise.

Abstract
The mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS) comprises monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs). Over the past few decades, classification of the cells of the MPS has generated considerable controversy. Recent studies into the origin, developmental requirements and function of MPS cells are beginning to solve this problem in an objective manner. Using high-resolution genetic analyses and fate-mapping studies, three main mononuclear phagocyte lineages have been defined, namely, macrophage populations established during embryogenesis, monocyte-derived cells that develop during adult life and DCs. These subsets and their diverse subsets have specialized functions that are largely conserved between species, justifying the introduction of a new, universal scheme of nomenclature and providing the framework for therapeutic manipulation of immune responses in the clinic. In this review, we have commented on the implications of this novel MPS classification in solid organ transplantation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) involves a complex sequence of events and limits the outcome of various surgical interventions. Clinical trials, based on the data of experimental models, aim to prove whether a pharmacological or technical approach could be suitable to provide a beneficial effect in humans. Due to the complexity of IRI, few pharmacological treatments have been investigated in clinical Phase III. AREAS COVERED In this review we report clinical trials that test specific drugs in clinical trials of organ transplantation. These studies form part of Phase II trials and examine the administration of caspase inhibitors, P-selectin antagonist or an antioxidant component in order to attenuate cold IRI during transplantation. Moreover, we provide a brief description of drugs tested on trials of different clinical situations associated to IRI, such as the coronary artery bypass graft surgery and percutaneous coronary intervention. EXPERT OPINION Future clinical trials could be centered on the application of techniques suitable for organs with increased vulnerability toward IRI. Furthermore, the standardization of reliable biomarkers and a careful estimation of the impact of high risk factors may be the key in order to achieve a more critical evaluation of the obtained results.

Abstract
In renal transplantation, live donor kidney grafts are associated with optimum success rates due to the shorter period of ischemia during the surgical procedure. The current shortage of donor organs for adult patients has caused a shift towards deceased donors, often with co-morbidity factors, whose organs are more sensitive to ischemia-reperfusion injury, which is unavoidable during transplantation. Donor management is pivotal to kidney graft survival through the control of the ischemia-reperfusion sequence, which is known to stimulate numerous deleterious or regenerative pathways. Although the key role of endothelial cells has been established, the complexity of the injury, associated with stimulation of different cell signaling pathways, such as unfolded protein response and cell death, prevents the definition of a unique therapeutic target. Preclinical transplant models in large animals are necessary to establish relationships and kinetics and have already contributed to the improvement of organ preservation. Therapeutic strategies using mesenchymal stem cells to induce allograft tolerance are promising advances in the treatment of the pediatric recipient in terms of reducing/withdrawing immunosuppressive therapy. In this review we focus on the different donor management strategies in kidney graft conditioning and on graft preservation consequences by highlighting the role of endothelial cells. We also propose strategies for preventing ischemia-reperfusion, such as cell therapy.

Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion injury is an unavoidable relevant consequence after kidney transplantation and influences short term as well as long-term graft outcome. Clinically ischemia/reperfusion injury is associated with delayed graft function, graft rejection, chronic rejection and chronic graft dysfunction. Ischemia/reperfusion affects many regulatory systems at the cellular level as well as in the renal tissue that result in a distinct inflammatory reaction of the kidney graft. Underlying factors of ischemia reperfusion include energy metabolism, cellular changes of the mitochondria and cellular membranes, initiation of different forms of cell death-like apoptosis and necrosis together with a recently discovered mixed form termed necroptosis. Chemokines and cytokines together with other factors promote the inflammatory response leading to activation of the innate immune system as well as the adaptive immune system. If the inflammatory reaction continues within the graft tissue, a progressive interstitial fibrosis develops that impacts long-term graft outcome. It is of particular importance in kidney transplantation to understand the underlying mechanisms and effects of ischemia/reperfusion on the graft as this knowledge also opens strategies to prevent or treat ischemia/reperfusion injury after transplantation in order to improve graft outcome.

Abstract
Innate immunity is increasingly recognized as a major player in transplantation. In addition to its role in inflammation in the early post-transplant period, innate immunity shapes the differentiation of cells of adaptive immunity, with a capacity to promote either rejection or tolerance. Emerging data indicate that innate allorecognition, a characteristic previously limited to lymphocytes, is involved in allograft rejection. This review briefly summarizes the physiology of each component of the innate immune system in the context of transplantation and presents the current or promising therapeutic applications, such as cellular, anticomplement and anticytokine therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Selectins are adhesion molecules that are expressed by the vascular endothelium upon activation and may be an imaging target for detecting myocardial ischemia long after resolution. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that molecular imaging of selectins with myocardial contrast echocardiographic (MCE) molecular imaging could be used to detect recent brief ischemia in closed-chest nonhuman primates. METHODS Myocardial ischemia was produced in anesthetized adult rhesus macaques (n = 6) by percutaneous balloon catheter occlusion of the left anterior descending or circumflex coronary artery for 5 to 10 min. Three separate macaques served as nonischemic controls. MCE perfusion imaging was performed during coronary occlusion to measure risk area and at 100 to 110 min to exclude infarction. MCE molecular imaging was performed at 30 and 90 min after reperfusion using a lipid microbubble bearing dimeric recombinant human P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (MB-YSPSL). Collection of blood for safety data, electrocardiography, and echocardiography were performed at baseline and before and 10 min after each MB-YSPSL injection. RESULTS Vital signs, oxygen saturation, electrocardiographic results, ventricular systolic function, pulmonary vascular resistance, and serum safety markers were unchanged by intravenous injection of MB-YSPSL. On echocardiography, left ventricular dysfunction in the risk area had resolved by 30 min, and there was no evidence of infarction on MCE perfusion imaging. On selectin-targeted MCE molecular imaging, signal enhancement was greater (P < .05) in the risk area than remote territory at 30 min (25 ± 11 vs 11 ± 4 IU) and 90 min (13 ± 3 vs 3 ± 2 IU) after ischemia. There was no enhancement (<1 IU) in control nonischemic subjects. CONCLUSIONS In primates, MCE molecular imaging of selectins using MB-YSPSL, a recombinant ligand appropriate for humans, is both safe and effective for imaging recent myocardial ischemia. This technique may be useful for detecting recent ischemia in patients with chest pain even in the absence of necrosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Acute kidney injury (AKI) in transplant recipients is a prevalent condition with a broad list of potential inciting causes. This review highlights recent data describing the epidemiology and long-term consequences of transplant AKI, novel interventions in the management of delayed graft function (DGF), and noninvasive diagnostic strategies. RECENT FINDINGS The incidence and outcomes of nontransplant AKI are well documented, and similar data are emerging in the transplant setting with recent reports suggesting a high incidence rate and significant impact on long-term graft outcomes. DGF represents a 'pure' form of transplant AKI, and many interventional trials aiming to limit ischemia-reperfusion-induced injury have recently been reported or are currently ongoing. The search for accurate noninvasive predictors of DGF and acute rejection is ongoing and recent literature describes novel plasma and urine-based biomarkers as well as transcriptional profiling methods with high potential for clinical applicability. SUMMARY AKI in transplant recipients is a frequent occurrence with significant potential for poor long-term graft outcomes. Recent efforts to limit ischemia-reperfusion injury and diagnose transplant AKI via noninvasive methods may help to minimize the impact of AKI on future graft function.

Abstract
In as many as 50% of cases the immediate post-kidney transplant course is complicated by delayed graft function that is most commonly related to ischemia and reperfusion injury. In addition to the acute complications related to renal failure and the associated economic impact of prolonged hospitalization, the development of delayed graft function is associated with an increased risk of chronic allograft nephropathy and shortened allograft survival. Challenges in understanding its mechanisms include the complexity, as contributors are derived from both the donor and the recipient. This acute kidney injury is modulated and caused by a complex interplay of events that lead to hypoxic and ischemic injury as well as to altered repair mechanisms. New therapies primarily seek to suppress the inflammatory homing of adaptive immune cells to the kidney, limit cell death, and/or interrupt detrimental signaling of necrosis. Although there are several promising novel targets and innovative therapeutics available, many challenges remain in their translation from bench to bedside. Identifying organs at risk and clearly defined end points will be critical in designing interventional trials.

Abstract
Selectins are a family of adhesion receptors that bind to highly glycosylated molecules expressed on the surface of leukocytes and endothelial cells. The interactions between selectins and their ligands control tethering and rolling of leukocytes on the vascular wall during the process of leukocyte migration into the tissues under physiological and pathological conditions. In recent years, it has been shown that leukocyte recruitment in the CNS plays a pivotal role in diseases such as multiple sclerosis, ischemic stroke, epilepsy and traumatic brain injury. In this review, we discuss the role of selectins in leukocyte–endothelial interactions in the pathogenesis of neurological diseases, highlighting new findings suggesting that selectins and their ligands may represent novel potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of CNS diseases.

Abstract
Until recently, epilepsy medical therapy is usually limited to anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs). However, approximately 1/3 of epilepsy patients, described as drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) patients, still suffer from continuous frequent seizures despite receiving adequate AEDs treatment of sufficient duration. More recently, with the remarkable progress of immunology, immunity and inflammation are considered to be key elements of the pathobiology of epilepsy. Activation of inflammatory processes in brain tissue has been observed in both experimental seizure animal models and epilepsy patients. Anti-inflammatory and immunotherapies also showed significant anticonvulsant properties both in clinical and in experimental settings. The above emerging evidence indicates that modulation of immunity and inflammatory processes could serve as novel specific targets to achieve potential anticonvulsant effects for the patients with epilepsy, especially DRE. Herein we review the recent evidence supporting the role of inflammation in the development and perpetuation of seizures, and also discuss the recent achievements in modulation of inflammation and immunotherapy applied to the treatment of epilepsy. Apart from medical therapy, we also discuss the influences of surgery, ketogenic diet, and electroconvulsive therapy on immunity and inflammation in DRE patients. Taken together, a promising perspective is suggested for future immunomodulatory therapies in the treatment of patients with DRE.

Abstract
Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is an early, non-specific inflammatory response that follows perfusion of warm blood into a cold asanguinous organ following transplantation. The occurrence of IRI may have a pivotal impact on acute and long-term renal allograft function. Initially, IRI contributes to delayed graft function (DGF), a term typically defined as the need for dialysis within one wk after renal transplantation. DGF frequently leads to prolonged hospital stay, increased healthcare costs, and potentially worse prognosis. Strategies to prevent IRI have so far been fairly limited, poorly defined, inadequately studied, and mostly anecdotal. The purpose of this review is to summarize the existing and novel therapies, which may mitigate IRI in renal transplantation. Agents currently in the pipeline include: Diannexin, which reduces endothelial cell injury by shielding phosphatidylserine; YSPSL, which mimics the binding portion of P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 to competitively inhibit translocation of P-selectin and recruitment of polymorphonuclear leukocytes to the surface of endothelial cells; and I5NP, a synthetic small interfering ribonucleic acid that results in the inhibition of p53 expression. These agents represent an exciting frontier in transplant pharmacotherapy; they are in various phases of investigation and may have broader benefits in reducing complications of DGF.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Pancreas transplantation is still hampered by a high incidence of early graft loss, and organ quality concerns result in high nonrecovery/discard rates. Demographic donor characteristics, surgical retrieval strategy, preservation fluid and ischemia time are crucial factors in the process of organ selection and are discussed in this review. RECENT FINDINGS The donor shortage is driving an increasing utilization of nonideal organs which would previously have been identified as unsuitable. Recent literature suggests that organs from extended criteria donors - older (>45 years), BMI >30 kg/m(2), and donation after cardiac death (DCD) - can achieve the same graft and patient survival as those from standard criteria donors, with the proviso that the accumulation of risk factors and long ischemic times should be avoided. Visual assessment of the pancreas is advisable before declining/accepting a pancreas. University of Wisconsin represents the gold standard solution; however, histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate and Celsior result in equal outcomes if cold ischemia time (CIT) is less than 12 h. Currently in pancreas transplantation, there is no proven effective ischemia/reperfusion injury prophylaxis than trying to keep CIT as short as possible. SUMMARY Demographic risk factors, inspection of the pancreas by an experienced surgeon and predicted CIT are crucial factors in deciding whether to accept a pancreas for transplantation. However, there is a need for an improved evidence base to determine where to set the 'cut-off' for unsuitable pancreatic grafts.

Abstract
Delayed graft function continues to pose a significant challenge to clinicians in the context of kidney transplantation. With the present disparity between supply and demand for organs, transplantation is proceeding with more marginal kidneys and therefore the problem of delayed graft function is likely to increase in the future. Although our understanding of the mechanism and risk factors for delayed graft function has improved, translation of this understanding into targeted clinical therapy to attenuate or manage established delayed graft function has been elusive. Based on current trends, the use of kidneys from expanded criteria or cardiac death donors will continue to expand, which will increase the prevalence of delayed graft function in the immediate postoperative setting. The aim of this article is to discuss and critique the available clinical evidence for targeted intervention in the prevention and management of delayed graft function and review emerging and experimental therapies.

Abstract
Donor-specific HLA antibodies significantly lower allograft survival, but as yet there are no satisfactory therapies for prevention of antibody-mediated rejection. Intracapillary macrophage infiltration is a hallmark of antibody-mediated rejection, and macrophages are important in both acute and chronic rejection. The purpose of this study was to investigate the Fc-independent effect of HLA I antibodies on endothelial cell activation, leading to monocyte recruitment. We used an in vitro model to assess monocyte binding to endothelial cells in response to HLA I antibodies. We confirmed our results in a mouse model of antibody-mediated rejection, in which B6.RAG1(-/-) recipients of BALB/c cardiac allografts were passively transferred with donor-specific MHC I antibodies. Our findings demonstrate that HLA I antibodies rapidly increase intracellular calcium and endothelial presentation of P-selectin, which supports monocyte binding. In the experimental model, donor-specific MHC I antibodies significantly increased macrophage accumulation in the allograft. Concurrent administration of rPSGL-1-Ig abolished antibody-induced monocyte infiltration in the allograft, but had little effect on antibody-induced endothelial injury. Our data suggest that antagonism of P-selectin may ameliorate accumulation of macrophages in the allograft during antibody-mediated rejection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Our aim was to develop an echocardiographic molecular imaging approach for detecting recent myocardial ischemia by using recombinant P-selectin glycoprotein ligand (PSGL)-1 as a targeting ligand, which is a feasible approach for human use. BACKGROUND Ischemic memory imaging using human PSGL-1 as a targeting moiety may extend the time window for postischemic detection by targeting the early (P-selectin) and late (E-selectin) endothelial ischemic response. METHODS Lipid microbubbles bearing recombinant human PSGL-1 (MB(YSPSL)) or P-selectin antibody (MB(Ab)) were prepared. Targeted attachment was evaluated by using flow chamber and intravital microscopy. In vivo ultrasound molecular imaging was first performed in the hindlimb in wild-type and P-selectin-deficient (P(-/-)) mice 45 to 360 min after brief ischemia-reperfusion injury. Myocardial contrast echocardiography molecular imaging was performed 1.5, 3, 6, and 18 h after brief left anterior descending coronary artery ischemia-reperfusion. RESULTS Microbubble attachment to P-selectin-immunoglobulin G fusion protein in flow chamber experiments (shear stress 0.5 to 8.0 dyne/cm(2)) and to activated venular endothelium on intravital microscopy were similar for MB(Ab) and MB(YSPSL). Intense enhancement was seen for MB(Ab) and MB(YSPSL) in postischemic muscle and was more stable over time for MB(YSPSL). On myocardial contrast echocardiography, both MB(YSPSL) and MB(Ab) produced similar signal enhancement at 90 min and 3 h after ischemia, which spatially correlated with the postischemic risk area. Signal significantly decreased but was still present at 6 to 18 h. CONCLUSIONS Echocardiographic molecular imaging with a human multi-selectin-targeted contrast agent bearing recombinant human PSGL-1 can detect myocardial ischemia hours after resolution. This approach may potentially be used for rapid bedside evaluation of patients with recent chest pain.

Abstract
Acute renal failure, now referred to as acute kidney injury, is a common and clinically important problem. Acute kidney injury frequently occurs as a result of acute tubular necrosis (ATN), which is often caused by a reduction in systemic blood pressure or renal blood flow (e.g., as observed in severe sepsis or during renal transplantation). The disease course in ATN is variable, including prolonged dialysis-dependence and chronic renal dysfunction, but there is currently no specific therapy for ATN. There is increasing evidence that the inflammatory response in ATN significantly contributes to disease severity and outcome. In this review, we summarize recent developments in the understanding of how the immune system responds to dying cells, and the relevance of these discoveries to ATN. In particular, NLRP3 inflammasome activation and IL-1β-mediated neutrophil recruitment are likely to play a key role and may provide novel therapeutic targets for immunotherapy in ATN.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury occurs with kidney transplantation and too frequently progresses to the clinical diagnosis of delayed graft function (DGF). Poor kidney function in the first week of graft life is detrimental to the longevity of the allograft. Challenges to understand the root cause of DGF include several pathologic contributors derived from the donor (ischemic injury, inflammatory signaling) and recipient (reperfusion injury, the innate immune response and the adaptive immune response). Progressive demand for renal allografts has generated new organ categories that continue to carry high risk for DGF for deceased donor organ transplantation. New therapies seek to subdue the inflammatory response in organs with high likelihood to benefit from intervention. Future success in suppressing the development of DGF will require a concerted effort to anticipate and treat tissue injury throughout the arc of the transplantation process.
