[PMID: 37477381 PMCID: PMC10510839 DOI: 10.1097/shk.0000000000002173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Revised: 05/31/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023]
Abstract
ABSTRACT Nonantibody-mediated transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) may account for up to 25% of TRALI cases. This indicates the need for further research to understand the pathophysiological mechanisms involved beyond antibody mediation fully. During this research, a TRALI rat model was developed using the trauma-blood loss-massive transfusion method. The severity of pulmonary edema was checked via measurement of lung histopathological changes and the amount of Evans blue dye fluid and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid protein leakage. In addition, potential mechanisms of pathophysiological pathways and inflammation cascades were investigated in TRALI rats in vivo . The findings indicated that TRALI increased inflammatory cytokines and triggered elevated levels of high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1)/receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIP3), apoptosis protein, and mRNAs in the TM (TRALI model) group as opposed to the normal control. Furthermore, TRALI activated the toll-like receptor 4/nuclear factor kappa B and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways, which partially regulated the inflammatory response in the TRALI rats. A significant increase was observed in the inflammatory mediators HMGB1 and RIP3 during the early stages of TRALI, suggesting that these mediators could be used as diagnostic markers for TRALI. In addition, HMGB1 and RIP3 promoted the inflammatory response by stimulating the toll-like receptor 44/nuclear factor kappa B and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways in the lung tissue of rats. Identifying efficient agents from inflammatory mediators such as alarmin can be an innovative scheme for diagnosing and preventing TRALI. These findings give HMGB1 and RIP3 a strong theoretical and experimental foundation for clinical use.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:10122. [PMID: 37373270 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241210122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 06/07/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Luteolin (Lut), a natural flavonoid compound existing in Perilla frutescens (L.) Britton, has been proven to play a protective role in the following biological aspects: inflammatory, viral, oxidant, and tumor-related. Lut can alleviate acute lung injury (ALI), manifested mainly by preventing the accumulation of inflammation-rich edematous fluid, while the protective actions of Lut on transepithelial ion transport in ALI were seldom researched. We found that Lut could improve the lung appearance/pathological structure in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mouse ALI models and reduce the wet/dry weight ratio, bronchoalveolar protein, and inflammatory cytokines. Meanwhile, Lut upregulated the expression level of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) in both the primary alveolar epithelial type 2 (AT2) cells and three-dimensional (3D) alveolar epithelial organoid model that recapitulated essential structural and functional aspects of the lung. Finally, by analyzing the 84 interaction genes between Lut and ALI/acute respiratory distress syndrome using GO and KEGG enrichment of network pharmacology, we found that the JAK/STAT signaling pathway might be involved in the network. Experimental data by knocking down STAT3 proved that Lut could reduce the phosphorylation of JAK/STAT and enhance the level of SOCS3, which abrogated the inhibition of ENaC expression induced by LPS accordingly. The evidence supported that Lut could attenuate inflammation-related ALI by enhancing transepithelial sodium transport, at least partially, via the JAK/STAT pathway, which may offer a promising therapeutic strategy for edematous lung diseases.

Abstract
Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) is a severe adverse event and a leading cause of transfusion-associated death. Its poor associated prognosis is due, in large part, to the current dearth of effective therapeutic strategies. Hence, an urgent need exists for effective management strategies for the prevention and treatment of associated lung edema. Recently, various preclinical and clinical studies have advanced the current knowledge regarding TRALI pathogenesis. In fact, the application of this knowledge to patient management has successfully decreased TRALI-associated morbidity. This article reviews the most relevant data and recent progress related to TRALI pathogenesis. Based on the existing two-hit theory, a novel three-step pathogenesis model composed of a priming step, pulmonary reaction, and effector phase is postulated to explain the process of TRALI. TRALI pathogenesis stage-specific management strategies based on clinical studies and preclinical models are summarized with an explication of their models of prevention and experimental drugs. The primary aim of this review is to provide useful insights regarding the underlying pathogenesis of TRALI to inform the development of preventive or therapeutic alternatives.

Abstract
ABSTRACT This study aimed to explore the ameliorating effects of the platelet surface glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor antagonist tirofiban on coagulation and fibrinolytic abnormalities in a mouse model of antibody-mediated transfusion-associated acute lung injury (ALI). This is important because ALI is a major cause of death attributable to the occurrence of adverse transfusion reactions. No information on a definite diagnosis or pathological mechanism exists, and targeted treatment options are not available. In this study, wild-type male Balb/c mice aged 8 to 10 weeks were randomly divided into the TRALI model, blank control, tirofiban intervention, and isotype control groups. After different treatment exposures, the mice were observed for 2 h before being killed, and lung tissue samples were collected. To explore the intervention effect of tirofiban, the degree of lung injury was quantified by estimating the lung wet/dry ratio, rectal temperature, survival rate, total protein, and myeloperoxidase and via hematoxylin-eosin staining. Furthermore, the coagulation, anticoagulation, and fibrinolysis assays were measured by automatic coagulation instrument and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits, and the fluorescence densities of platelets and fibrin were quantified using immunofluorescence to analyze the effects of tirofiban on the platelet and fibrin interactions of TRALI. Compared with the TRALI model group, the lung injury indices in the tirofiban intervention group decreased significantly, and survival rates also improved. Furthermore, the level of coagulation and fibrinolytic abnormalities were obviously lower than those in the TRALI model group. In conclusion, our findings suggest that tirofiban might interfere with TRALI by inhibiting platelet activation and improving coagulation and fibrinolytic abnormalities.

Abstract
Objective Analysis of clinical factors and changes in regulatory T cell (Treg)-related cytokine levels in transfusion-associated acute lung injury (TRALI). Methods 62 patients who underwent blood transfusion and developed TRALI (TRALI group) in our hospital between January 2018 and December 2021 and 58 patients who did not develop TRALI (non-TRALI group) from blood transfusion were selected to collect clinical data from patients and construct a logistic regression model to analyze clinical risk factors for TRALI. Based on the prognosis of TRALI patients, they were divided into survival group (50 cases) and death group (12 cases), and serum CD4 + CD25 + Treg and Treg-related cytokines (interleukin 10 (IL-10), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)) levels were compared between the two groups, and the correlation between CD4 + CD25 + Treg and IL-10 and TGF-β was analyzed by Pearson. Results The differences in smoking history, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibody II, pretransfusion shock, and CD4 + CD25 + Treg between the TRALI group and non-TRALI group were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that HLA antibody II and increased CD4 + CD25 + Treg were independent risk factors of TRALI (P < 0.05). The levels of CD4 + CD25 + Treg, IL-10, and TGF-β in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group (P < 0.05). CD4 + CD25 + Treg was positively correlated with levels of IL-10 and TGF-β (P < 0.05). Conclusion Elevated HLA antibody II and CD4 + CD25 + Treg are the main clinical risk factors for TRALI, and CD4 + CD25 + Treg may be involved in immunosuppression by increasing the expression levels of IL-10 and TGF-β. Early clinical monitoring of changes in Treg-related cytokine levels can provide some guidance for prognostic assessment of TRALI patients.

Abstract
Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) is a life-threatening disease caused by blood transfusion. However, its pathogenesis is poorly understood and specific therapies are not available. Experimental and clinical studies have indicated that alveolar fibrin deposition serves a pathological role in acute lung injuries. The present study investigated whether pulmonary fibrin deposition occurs in a TRALI mouse model and the possible mechanisms underlying this deposition. The TRALI model was established by priming male Balb/c mice with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 18 h prior to injection of an anti-major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) antibody. Untreated mice and mice administered LPS plus isotype antibody served as controls. At 2 h after TRALI induction, blood and lung tissue were collected. Disease characteristics were assessed based on lung tissue histology, inflammatory responses and alterations in the alveolar-capillary barrier. Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect pulmonary fibrin deposition, platelets and fibrin-platelet interactions. Levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), thrombin-antithrombin complex (TATc), tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI), coagulation factor activity and fibrin degradation product (FDP) in lung tissue homogenates were measured. Severe lung injury, increased inflammatory responses and a damaged alveolar-capillary barrier in the LPS-primed, anti-MHC-I antibody-administered mice indicated that the TRALI model was successfully established. Fibrin deposition, fibrin-platelet interactions and platelets accumulation in the lungs of mouse models were clearly promoted. Additionally, levels of TATc, coagulation factor V (FV), TFPI and PAI-1 were elevated, whereas FDP level was decreased in TRALI mice. In conclusion, both impaired fibrinolysis and enhanced coagulation, which might be induced by boosted FV activity, increased pulmonary platelets accumulation and enhanced fibrin-platelet interactions and contributed to pulmonary fibrin deposition in TRALI mice. The results provided a therapeutic rationale to target abnormalities in either coagulation or fibrinolysis pathways for antibody-mediated TRALI.

Abstract
As an initiator of respiratory distress, transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) is regarded as one of the rare complications associated with transfusion medicine. However, to date, the pathogenesis of TRALI is still unclear, and specific therapies are unavailable. Understanding the mechanisms of TRALI may promote the design of preventive and therapeutic strategies. The immune system plays vital roles in reproduction, development and homeostasis. Sterile tissue damage, such as physical trauma, ischemia, or reperfusion injury, induces an inflammatory reaction that results in wound healing and regenerative mechanisms. In other words, in addition to protecting against pathogens, the immune response may be strongly associated with TRALI prevention and treatment through a variety of immunomodulatory strategies to inhibit excessive immune system activation. Immunotherapy based on immune cells or immunological targets may eradicate complications. For example, IL-10 therapy is a promising therapeutic strategy to explore further. This review will focus on ultramodern advances in our understanding of the potential role of the immune system in TRALI prevention and treatment.
