Li Q, Nie H. Advances in lung ischemia/reperfusion injury: unraveling the role of innate immunity. Inflamm Res 2024; 73:393-405. [PMID: 38265687 DOI: 10.1007/s00011-023-01844-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Revised: 12/03/2023] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung ischemia/reperfusion injury (LIRI) is a common occurrence in clinical practice and represents a significant complication following pulmonary transplantation and various diseases. At the core of pulmonary ischemia/reperfusion injury lies sterile inflammation, where the innate immune response plays a pivotal role. This review aims to investigate recent advancements in comprehending the role of innate immunity in LIRI. METHODS A computer-based online search was performed using the PubMed database and Web of Science database for published articles concerning lung ischemia/reperfusion injury, cell death, damage-associated molecular pattern molecules (DAMPs), innate immune cells, innate immunity, inflammation. RESULTS During the process of lung ischemia/reperfusion, cellular injury even death can occur. When cells are injured or undergo cell death, endogenous ligands known as DAMPs are released. These molecules can be recognized and bound by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), leading to the recruitment and activation of innate immune cells. Subsequently, a cascade of inflammatory responses is triggered, ultimately exacerbating pulmonary injury. These steps are complex and interrelated rather than being in a linear relationship. In recent years, significant progress has been made in understanding the immunological mechanisms of LIRI, involving novel types of cell death, the ability of receptors other than PRRs to recognize DAMPs, and a more detailed mechanism of action of innate immune cells in ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI), laying the groundwork for the development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. CONCLUSIONS Various immune components of the innate immune system play critical roles in lung injury after ischemia/reperfusion. Preventing cell death and the release of DAMPs, interrupting DAMPs receptor interactions, disrupting intracellular inflammatory signaling pathways, and minimizing immune cell recruitment are essential for lung protection in LIRI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperglycaemia is associated with worse outcomes in many settings. However, the association between dysglycaemia and adverse outcomes remains debated in COVID-19 patients. This study determined the association of prehospital blood glucose levels with acute medical unit (intensive care unit or high dependency unit) admission and mortality among COVID-19-infected patients. METHODS This was a single-centre, retrospective cohort study based on patients cared for by the prehospital medical mobile unit from a Swiss university hospital between March 2020 and April 2021. All adult patients with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 infection during the study period were included. Data were obtained from the prehospital medical files. The main exposure was prehospital blood glucose level. A 7.8 mmol/L cut-off was used to define high blood glucose level. Restricted cubic splines were also used to analyse the exposure as a continuous variable. The primary endpoint was acute medical unit admission; secondary endpoints were 7-day and 30-day mortality. Multivariable logistic regressions were performed to compute odds ratios. RESULTS A total of 276 patients were included. The mean prehospital blood glucose level was 8.8 mmol/l, and 123 patients presented high blood glucose levels. The overall acute medical unit admission rate was 31.2%, with no statistically significant difference according to prehospital blood glucose levels. The mortality rate was 13.8% at 7 days and 25% at 30 days. The 30-day mortality rate was higher in patients with high prehospital blood glucose levels, with an adjusted odds ratio of 2.5 (1.3-4.8). CONCLUSIONS In patients with acute COVID-19 infection, prehospital blood glucose levels do not seem to be associated with acute medical unit admission. However, there was an increased risk of 30-day mortality in COVID-19 patients who presented high prehospital blood glucose levels.

RAGE-TLR4 Crosstalk Is the Key Mechanism by Which High Glucose Enhances the Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inflammatory Response in Primary Bovine Alveolar Macrophages. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24087007. [PMID: 37108174 PMCID: PMC10138623 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24087007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 04/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/06/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The receptor of advanced glycation end products (RAGE) and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) are important receptors for inflammatory responses induced by high glucose (HG) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and show crosstalk phenomena in inflammatory responses. However, it is unknown whether RAGE and TLR4 can influence each other's expression through a crosstalk mechanism and whether the RAGE-TLR4 crosstalk related to the molecular mechanism of HG enhances the LPS-induced inflammatory response. In this study, the implications of LPS with multiple concentrations (0, 1, 5, and 10 μg/mL) at various treatment times (0, 3, 6, 12, and 24 h) in primary bovine alveolar macrophages (BAMs) were explored. The results showed that a 5 μg/mL LPS treatment at 12 h had the most significant increment on the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin 1β (IL-1β), IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α levels in BAMs (p < 0.05) and that the levels of TLR4, RAGE, MyD88, and NF-κB p65 mRNA and protein expression were upregulated (p < 0.05). Then, the effect of LPS (5 μg/mL) and HG (25.5 mM) co-treatment in BAMs was explored. The results further showed that HG significantly enhanced the release of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α caused by LPS in the supernatant (p < 0.01) and significantly increased the levels of RAGE, TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB p65 mRNA and protein expression (p < 0.01). Pretreatment with FPS-ZM1 and TAK-242, the inhibitors of RAGE and TLR4, significantly alleviated the HG + LPS-induced increment of RAGE, TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB p65 mRNA and protein expression in the presence of HG and LPS (p < 0.01). This study showed that RAGE and TLR4 affect each other's expression through crosstalk during the combined usage of HG and LPS and synergistically activate the MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway to promote the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines in BAMs.

Hyperglycemia-triggered ATF6-CHOP pathway aggravates acute inflammatory liver injury by β-catenin signaling. Cell Death Dis 2022; 8:115. [PMID: 35289326 PMCID: PMC8921205 DOI: 10.1038/s41420-022-00910-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2021] [Revised: 01/08/2022] [Accepted: 02/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Although hyperglycemia has been documented as an unfavorable element that can further induce liver ischemia–reperfusion injury (IRI), the related molecular mechanisms remain to be clearly elaborated. This study investigated the effective manner of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress signaling in hyperglycemia-exacerbated liver IRI. Here we demonstrated that in the liver tissues and Kupffer cells (KCs) of DM patients and STZ-induced hyperglycemic mice, the ER stress-ATF6-CHOP signaling pathway is activated. TLR4-mediated pro-inflammatory activation was greatly attenuated by the addition of 4-phenylbutyrate (PBA), one common ER stress inhibitor. The liver IRI in hyperglycemic mice was also significantly reduced after PBA treatment. In addition, deficiency of CHOP (CHOP−/−) obviously alleviates the hepatic IRI, and pro-inflammatory effects deteriorated by hyperglycemia. In hyperglycemic mice, β-catenin expression was suppressed while the ATF6-CHOP signal was activated. In the liver tissues of PBA-treated or CHOP−/− hyperglycemic mice, the expression of β-catenin was restored. Furthermore, CHOP deficiency can induce protection against hyperglycemia-related liver IRI, which was disrupted by the knockdown of β-catenin will cause this protection to disappear. High glucose (HG) treatment stimulated ATF6-CHOP signaling, reduced cellular β-catenin accumulation, and promoted the TLR4-related inflammation of BMDMs. But the above effects were partially rescued in BMDMs with CHOP deficiency or by PBA treatment. In BMDMs cultured in HG conditions, the anti-inflammatory functions of CHOP−/− were destroyed by the knockdown of β-catenin. Finally, chimeric mice carrying WT or CHOP−/− BMDMs by bone marrow transplantation were adopted to verify the above conclusion. The current study suggested that hyperglycemia could trigger ER stress-ATF6-CHOP axis, inhibit β-catenin activation, accelerate inflammation, and deteriorate liver IRI, thus providing the treatment potential for management of sterile liver inflammation in DM patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The strength of the relationship between diabetes, diabetic retinopathy (DR), and glaucoma remains controversial. We review evidence supporting and refuting this association and explore mechanistic pathological and treatment relationships linking these diseases. RECENT FINDINGS While studies have shown diabetes/DR may increase the risk for glaucoma, this remains inconsistently demonstrated. Diabetes/DR may contribute toward glaucomatous optic neuropathy indirectly (either by increasing intraocular pressure or vasculopathy) or through direct damage to the optic nerve. However, certain elements of diabetes may slow glaucoma progression, and diabetic treatment may concurrently be beneficial in glaucoma management. Diabetes plays a significant role in poor outcomes after glaucoma surgery. While the relationship between diabetes/DR and glaucoma remains controversial, multiple mechanistic links connecting pathophysiology and management of diabetes, DR, and glaucoma have been made. However, a deeper understanding of the causes of disease association is needed.

Abstract
Intact endothelial function plays a fundamental role for the maintenance of cardiovascular (CV) health. The endothelium is also involved in remote signaling pathway-mediated protection against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, the transfer of these protective signals into clinical practice has been hampered by the complex metabolic alterations frequently observed in the cardiometabolic continuum, which affect redox balance and inflammatory pathways. Despite recent advances in determining the distinct roles of hyperglycemia, insulin resistance (InR), hyperinsulinemia, and ultimately diabetes mellitus (DM), which define the cardiometabolic continuum, our understanding of how these conditions modulate endothelial signaling remains challenging. It is widely accepted that endothelial cells (ECs) undergo functional changes within the cardiometabolic continuum. Beyond vascular tone and platelet-endothelium interaction, endothelial dysfunction may have profound negative effects on outcome during I/R. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge of the influence of hyperglycemia, InR, hyperinsulinemia, and DM on endothelial function and redox balance, their influence on remote protective signaling pathways, and their impact on potential therapeutic strategies to optimize protective heterocellular signaling.

Abstract
Stress hyperglycemia is a transient increase in blood glucose during acute physiological stress in the absence of glucose homeostasis dysfunction. Its's presence has been described in critically ill patients who are subject to many physiological insults. In this regard, hyperglycemia and impaired glucose tolerance are also frequent in patients who are admitted to the intensive care unit for heart failure and cardiogenic shock. The hyperglycemia observed at the beginning of these cardiac disorders appears to be related to a variety of stress mechanisms. The release of major stress and steroid hormones, catecholamine overload, and glucagon all participate in generating a state of insulin resistance with increased hepatic glucose output and glycogen breakdown. In fact, the observed pathophysiological response, which appears to regulate a stress situation, is harmful because it induces mitochondrial impairment, oxidative stress-related injury to cells, endothelial damage, and dysfunction of several cellular channels. Paradigms are now being challenged by growing evidence of a phenomenon called glucotoxicity, providing an explanation for the benefits of lowering glucose levels with insulin therapy in these patients. In the present review, the authors present the data published on cardiac glucotoxicity and discuss the benefits of lowering plasma glucose to improve heart function and to positively affect the course of critical illness.

Abstract
Lung ischemia-reperfusion injury (LIRI) and primary graft dysfunction are leading causes of morbidity and mortality among lung transplant recipients. Although extensive research endeavors have been undertaken, few preventative and therapeutic treatments have emerged for clinical use. Novel strategies are still needed to improve outcomes after lung transplantation. In this review, we discuss the underlying mechanisms of transplanted LIRI, potential modifiable targets, current practices, and areas of ongoing investigation to reduce LIRI and primary graft dysfunction in lung transplant recipients.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) is characterized by severe hypoxemia and has significantly high mortality rates. Acute hyperglycemia occurs in patients with conditions such as sepsis or trauma, among others, and it results in aggravated inflammation and induces damage in patients with ALI. Regulation of alveolar fluid is essential for the development and resolution of pulmonary edema in lung injury. Pulmonary sodium-potassium-chloride co-transporter 1 (NKCC1) regulates the net influx of ions and water into alveolar cells. The activation of with-no-lysine kinase 4 (WNK4), STE20/SPS1-related proline/alanine rich kinase (SPAK) and the NKCC1 pathway lead to an increase in the expression of NKCC1 and aggravation of ALI. Moreover, hyperglycemia is known to induce NKCC1 expression via the activation of the serum-glucocorticoid kinase 1 (SGK1)-NKCC1 pathway. We aim to evaluate the influence of acute hyperglycemia on the SGK1-NKCC1 pathway in ALI. ALI was induced using a high tidal volume for four hours in a rat model. Acute hyperglycemia was induced by injection with 0.5 mL of 40% glucose solution followed by continuous infusion at 2 mL/h. The animals were divided into sham, sham+ hyperglycemia, ALI, ALI + hyperglycemia, ALI + inhaled bumetanide (NKCC1 inhibitor) pretreatment, ALI + hyperglycemia + inhalational bumetanide pretreatment, and ALI + hyperglycemia + post-ALI inhalational bumetanide groups. Severe lung injury along with pulmonary edema, alveolar protein leakage, and lung inflammation was observed in ALI with hyperglycemia than in ALI without hyperglycemia. This was concurrent with the higher expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, infiltration of neutrophils and alveolar macrophages (AM) 1, and NKCC1 expression. Inhalational NKCC1 inhibitor significantly inhibited the SGK1-NKCC1, and WNK4-SPAK-NKCC1 pathways. Additionally, it reduced pulmonary edema, inflammation, levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, neutrophils and AM1 and increased AM2. Therefore, acute hyperglycemia aggravates lung injury via the further activation of the SGK1-NKCC1 pathway. The NKCC1 inhibitor can effectively attenuate lung injury aggravated by acute hyperglycemia.

Abstract
The most common cause of acute lung injury is ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), during which mitochondrial damage occurs. We have previously demonstrated that mitochondrial transplantation is an efficacious therapy to replace or augment mitochondria damaged by IRI, allowing for enhanced muscle viability and function in cardiac tissue. Here, we investigate the efficacy of mitochondrial transplantation in a murine lung IRI model using male C57BL/6J mice. Transient ischemia was induced by applying a microvascular clamp on the left hilum for 2 h. Upon reperfusion mice received either vehicle or vehicle-containing mitochondria either by vascular delivery (Mito V) through the pulmonary artery or by aerosol delivery (Mito Neb) via the trachea (nebulization). Sham control mice underwent thoracotomy without hilar clamping and were ventilated for 2 h before returning to the cage. After 24 h recovery, lung mechanics were assessed and lungs were collected for analysis. Our results demonstrated that at 24 h of reperfusion, dynamic compliance and inspiratory capacity were significantly increased and resistance, tissue damping, elastance, and peak inspiratory pressure (Mito V only) were significantly decreased (P < 0.05) in Mito groups as compared with their respective vehicle groups. Neutrophil infiltration, interstitial edema, and apoptosis were significantly decreased (P < 0.05) in Mito groups as compared with vehicles. No significant differences in cytokines and chemokines between groups were shown. All lung mechanics results in Mito groups except peak inspiratory pressure in Mito Neb showed no significant differences (P > 0.05) as compared with Sham. These results conclude that mitochondrial transplantation by vascular delivery or nebulization improves lung mechanics and decreases lung tissue injury.

J Cell Mol Med 2019; 24:214-226. [PMID: 31657123 PMCID: PMC6933400 DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.14703] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2019] [Revised: 08/12/2019] [Accepted: 09/05/2019] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Radiation‐induced lung injury (RILI) is the major complication of thoracic radiation therapy, and no effective treatment is available. This study explored the role of high‐mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) in acute RILI and the therapeutic effect of glycyrrhizin, an inhibitor of HMGB1, on RILI. C57BL/6 mice received a 20 Gy dose of X‐ray radiation to the whole thorax with or without administration of glycyrrhizin. Severe lung inflammation was present 12 weeks after irradiation, although only a mild change was noted at 2 weeks and could be alleviated by administration of glycyrrhizin. Glycyrrhizin decreased the plasma concentrations of HMGB1 and sRAGE as well as TNF‐α, IL‐1β and IL‐6 levels in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). The expression of RAGE was decreased while that of TLR4 was significantly increased at 12 weeks, but not 2 weeks, after irradiation in mouse lung tissue. In vitro, the expression of TLR4 increased in RAW 264.7 cells after conditioning with the supernatant from the irradiated MLE‐12 cells containing HMGB1 but showed no change when conditioned medium without HMGB1 was used. However, conditioned culture had no effect on RAGE expression in RAW 264.7 cells. Glycyrrhizin also inhibited the related downstream transcription factors of HMGB/TLR4, such as NF‐κB, JNK and ERK1/2, in lung tissue and RAW 264.7 cells when TLR4 was activated. In conclusion, the HMGB1/TLR4 pathway mediates RILI and can be mitigated by glycyrrhizin.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury (IRI), which involves inflammation, vascular permeability, and edema, remains a major challenge after lung transplantation. Pannexin-1 (Panx1) channels modulate cellular ATP release during inflammation. This study tests the hypothesis that endothelial Panx1 is a key mediator of vascular inflammation and edema after I/R and that IRI can be blocked by Panx1 antagonism. A murine hilar ligation model of IRI was used whereby left lungs underwent 1 h of ischemia and 2 h of reperfusion. Treatment of wild-type mice with Panx1 inhibitors (carbenoxolone or probenecid) significantly attenuated I/R-induced pulmonary dysfunction, edema, cytokine production, and neutrophil infiltration versus vehicle-treated mice. In addition, VE-Cad-CreERT2+/Panx1fl/fl mice (tamoxifen-inducible deletion of Panx1 in vascular endothelium) treated with tamoxifen were significantly protected from IRI (reduced dysfunction, endothelial permeability, edema, proinflammatory cytokines, and neutrophil infiltration) versus vehicle-treated mice. Furthermore, extracellular ATP levels in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid is Panx1-mediated after I/R as it was markedly attenuated by Panx1 antagonism in wild-type mice and by endothelial-specific Panx1 deficiency. Panx1 gene expression in lungs after I/R was also significantly elevated compared with sham. In vitro experiments demonstrated that TNF-α and/or hypoxia-reoxygenation induced ATP release from lung microvascular endothelial cells, which was attenuated by Panx1 inhibitors. This study is the first, to our knowledge, to demonstrate that endothelial Panx1 plays a key role in mediating vascular permeability, inflammation, edema, leukocyte infiltration, and lung dysfunction after I/R. Pharmacological antagonism of Panx1 activity may be a novel therapeutic strategy to prevent IRI and primary graft dysfunction after lung transplantation.

Abstract
Lung transplantation, a cure for a number of end-stage lung diseases, continues to have the worst long-term outcomes when compared with other solid organ transplants. Preclinical modeling of the most common and serious lung transplantation complications are essential to better understand and mitigate the pathophysiological processes that lead to these complications. Various animal and in vitro models of lung transplant complications now exist and each of these models has unique strengths. However, significant issues, such as the required technical expertise as well as the robustness and clinical usefulness of these models, remain to be overcome or clarified. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) convened a workshop in March 2016 to review the state of preclinical science addressing the three most important complications of lung transplantation: primary graft dysfunction (PGD), acute rejection (AR), and chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD). In addition, the participants of the workshop were tasked to make consensus recommendations on the best use of these complimentary models to close our knowledge gaps in PGD, AR, and CLAD. Their reviews and recommendations are summarized in this report. Furthermore, the participants outlined opportunities to collaborate and directions to accelerate research using these preclinical models.

Inhibition of Toll-like receptor 4 signaling ameliorates lung ischemia-reperfusion injury in acute hyperglycemic conditions. J Heart Lung Transplant 2016; 35:815-22. [PMID: 26922276 DOI: 10.1016/j.healun.2015.12.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2015] [Revised: 10/26/2015] [Accepted: 12/15/2015] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent lung transplantation studies have shown that peri-operative hyperglycemia is an important factor affecting recipient survival; however, its underlying mechanisms are not well understood. We hypothesized that acute hyperglycemia exacerbates lung ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) through up-regulation of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling pathways. METHODS C57BL/6Ncr mice were divided into 3 treatment groups: sham; IRI; and IRI under acute hyperglycemic conditions (IRI+HG). Mice in the IRI and IRI+HG groups were exposed to IRI via clamping the left hilum for 1 hour, followed by reperfusion for 2 hours. Acute hyperglycemia was established by glucose injection. The severity of lung injury and TLR4 signaling pathway activity were assessed. Further, we performed a pharmacologic blockade of TLR4 signaling to determine the effect of TLR4 signaling inhibition on lung injury. RESULTS Compared with normoglycemic mice, hyperglycemic mice had 2-fold higher blood glucose levels (p < 0.001). Pulmonary compliance was significantly lower, and airway resistance was significantly higher, in the IRI+HG group than in the IRI group (p < 0.05). Levels of inflammatory cytokines in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were significantly higher in the IRI+HG group than in the IRI group. Correspondingly, TLR4 signaling pathways were up-regulated in the IRI+HG group. Moreover, pharmacologic inhibition of TLR4 signaling significantly decreased lung injury markers under hyperglycemic conditions. CONCLUSIONS Acute hyperglycemia exacerbated lung IRI and was associated with up-regulation of TLR4 signaling pathways. Pharmacologic inhibition of TLR4 signaling ameliorated lung IRI with acute hyperglycemia. Targeting TLR4 appears to be a promising approach to managing coexisting pathologies in lung transplant recipients.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Deceased patients who have suffered severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) are the largest source of organs for lung transplantation. However, due to severely compromised pulmonary lung function, only one-third of these patients are eligible organ donors, with far fewer capable of donating lungs (∼ 20%). As a result of this organ scarcity, understanding and controlling the pulmonary pathophysiology of potential donors are key to improving the health and long-term success of transplanted lungs. RECENT ADVANCES Although the exact mechanism by which TBI produces pulmonary pathophysiology remains unclear, it may be related to the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) from the injured tissue. These heterogeneous, endogenous host molecules can be rapidly released from damaged or dying cells and mediate sterile inflammation following trauma. In this review, we highlight the interaction of the DAMP, high-mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1) with the receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE), and toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). CRITICAL ISSUES Recently published studies are reviewed, implicating the release of HMGB1 as producing marked changes in pulmonary inflammation and physiology following trauma, followed by an overview of the experimental evidence demonstrating the benefits of blocking the HMGB1-RAGE axis. FUTURE DIRECTIONS Targeting the HMGB1 signaling axis may increase the number of lungs available for transplantation and improve long-term benefits for organ recipient patient outcomes.

Abstract
Although pretransplant diabetes is a risk factor for mortality post-liver transplant, the underlying mechanism has not been fully defined. In a murine liver partial warm ischemia model, we addressed the question of how diabetes/hyperglycemia impacted tissue inflammatory injuries against ischemia reperfusion (IR), focusing on the advanced glycation endproduct (AGE) and its receptor (RAGE) pathway. Our results showed that hepatocellular injury was exacerbated in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice against IR, in association with hyper-inflammatory immune activation in livers. Serum levels of AGEs, but not HMGB1, were increased in diabetic mice in response to liver IR. Both RAGE antagonist peptides and small interfering RNA alleviated liver injuries and inhibited inflammatory immune activation against IR in diabetic, but not normal, mice. Kupffer cells (KCs)/macrophages, but not hepatocytes, from diabetic mice expressed significantly higher levels of RAGE, leading to their hyper-inflammatory responsiveness to both TLR ligands and AGEs. In vitro, hyperglycemia increased macrophage RAGE expression and enhanced their TLR responses. Our results demonstrated that activation of the AGE-RAGE signaling pathway in KCs was responsible for hyper-inflammatory immune responses and exacerbated hepatocellular injuries in diabetic/hyperglycemic hosts against liver IR.

Abstract
Outcomes for lung transplantation are the worst of any solid organ, and ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) limits both short- and long-term outcomes. Presently no therapeutic agents are available to prevent IRI. Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) modulates immune function through binding to a set of G protein-coupled receptors (S1PR1-5). Although S1P has been shown to attenuate lung IRI, the S1P receptors responsible for protection have not been defined. The present study tests the hypothesis that protection from lung IRI is primarily mediated through S1PR1 activation. Mice were treated with either vehicle, FTY720 (a nonselective S1P receptor agonist), or VPC01091 (a selective S1PR1 agonist and S1PR3 antagonist) before left lung IR. Function, vascular permeability, cytokine expression, neutrophil infiltration, and myeloperoxidase levels were measured in lungs. After IR, both FTY720 and VPC01091 significantly improved lung function (reduced pulmonary artery pressure and increased pulmonary compliance) vs. vehicle control. In addition, FTY720 and VPC01091 significantly reduced vascular permeability, expression of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-17, IL-12/IL-23 p40, CC chemokine ligand-2, and TNF-α), myeloperoxidase levels, and neutrophil infiltration compared with control. No significant differences were observed between VPC01091 and FTY720 treatment groups. VPC01091 did not significantly affect elevated invariant natural killer T cell infiltration after IR, and administration of an S1PR1 antagonist reversed VPC01091-mediated protection after IR. In conclusion, VPC01091 and FTY720 provide comparable protection from lung injury and dysfunction after IR. These findings suggest that S1P-mediated protection from IRI is mediated by S1PR1 activation, independent of S1PR3, and that selective S1PR1 agonists may provide a novel therapeutic strategy to prevent lung IRI.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Recent findings suggest that the effects of tight glycemic control (TGC) performing intensive insulin therapy (IIT) in medical and surgical ICU have had conflicting results. The purpose of this review is to summarize the current evidence in humans how closed-loop systems for IIT are ready for prime time in the ICU. RECENT FINDINGS Current evidence suggests that maintaining normoglycemia postoperatively can improve the outcome and reduce the mortality and morbidity of critically ill patients by TGC performing IIT according to the large randomized trials. However, trials examining the effects of TGC have had conflicting results. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses have also led to differing conclusions. The main reason these clinical trials and meta-analyses were negative results for TGC was because of the high incidence of hypoglycemia. This could not be prevented as there is no reliable technique currently able to avoid this condition during IIT. The development of accurate, continuous blood glucose monitoring devices, and closed-loop systems for computer-assisted blood glucose control in the ICU, will probably help avoid hypoglycemia in these situations. SUMMARY The challenge in the hospital setting demonstrated that a closed-loop glycemic control system is expected to the achievement of TGC with no occurrence of hypoglycemia induced by IIT after surgery. Closed-loop glycemic control systems for IIT are now ready for prime time in the ICU.

Abstract
Activation of invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells and signaling through receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) are known to independently mediate lung ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. This study tests the hypothesis that activation of RAGE specifically on iNKT cells via alveolar macrophage-produced high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is critical for the initiation of lung IR injury. A murine in vivo hilar clamp model was utilized, which demonstrated that RAGE(-/-) mice were significantly protected from IR injury. Treatment of WT mice with soluble RAGE (a decoy receptor), or anti-HMGB1 antibody, attenuated lung IR injury and inflammation, whereas treatment with recombinant HMGB1 enhanced IR injury in WT mice but not RAGE(-/-) mice. Importantly, lung dysfunction, cytokine production and neutrophil infiltration were significantly attenuated after IR in Jα18(-/-) mice reconstituted with RAGE(-/-) iNKT cells (versus WT iNKT cells). In vitro studies demonstrated that, after hypoxia-reoxygenation, alveolar macrophage-derived HMGB1 augmented IL-17 production from iNKT cells in a RAGE-dependent manner. These results suggest that HMGB1-mediated RAGE activation on iNKT cells is critical for initiation of lung IR injury and that a crosstalk between macrophages and iNKT cells via the HMGB1/RAGE axis mediates IL-17 production by iNKT cells causing neutrophil infiltration and lung IR injury.

Abstract
Introduction Previous studies have shown that patients with diabetes mellitus appear to have a lower prevalence of acute lung injury. We assumed that insulin prescribed to patients with diabetes has an anti-inflammatory property and pulmonary administration of insulin might exert beneficial effects much more than intravenous administration. Methods Twenty-eight mechanically ventilated rabbits underwent lung injury by saline lavage, and then the animals were allocated into a normoglycemia group (NG), a hyperglycemia group (HG), an HG treated with intravenous insulin (HG-VI) group or an HG treated with aerosolized insulin (HG-AI) group with continuous infusion of different fluid solutions and treatments: normal saline, 50% glucose, 50% glucose with intravenous insulin, or 50% glucose with inhaled aerosolized insulin, respectively. After four hours of treatment, the lungs and heart were excised en bloc, and then high-mobility group B1 concentration in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, interleukin-8 and toll-like receptor 4 mRNA expression in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid cells, and lung myeloperoxidase activity were measured. Results Treatment with both aerosolized insulin and intravenous insulin attenuated toll-like receptor 4 mRNA expressions in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid cells. Interleukin-8 and toll-like receptor 4 mRNA expression was significantly lower in the HG-AI group than in the HG-IV group. The lung myeloperoxidase activity in the normal healthy group showed significantly lower levels compared to the NG group but not different compared to those of the HG, HG-VI and HG-AI groups. Conclusions The results suggest that insulin attenuates inflammatory responses in the lungs augmented by hyperglycemia in acute lung injury and the insulin's efficacy may be better when administered by aerosol.

Abstract
Human inhalation exposures to manufactured nanoparticles (NP) and airborne ultrafine particles (UFP) continues to increase in both occupational and environmental settings. UFP exposures have been associated with increased cardiovascular mortality and morbidity, while ongoing research supports adverse systemic and cardiovascular health effects after NP exposures. Adverse cardiovascular health effects include alterations in heart rate variability, hypertension, thrombosis, arrhythmias, increased myocardial infarction, and atherosclerosis. Exactly how UFP and NP cause these negative cardiovascular effects is poorly understood, however a variety of mediators and mechanisms have been proposed. UFP and NP, as well as their soluble components, are known to systemically translocate from the lung. Translocated particles could mediate cardiovascular toxicity through direct interactions with the vasculature, blood, and heart. Recent study suggests that sensory nerve stimulation within the lung may also contribute to UFP- and NP-induced acute cardiovascular alterations. Activation of sensory nerves, such as C-fibers, within the lung may result in altered cardiac rhythm and function. Lastly, release of pulmonary-derived mediators into systemic circulation has been proposed to facilitate cardiovascular effects. In general, these proposed pulmonary-derived mediators include proinflammatory cytokines, oxidatively modified macromolecules, vasoactive proteins, and prothrombotic factors. These pulmonary-derived mediators have been postulated to contribute to the subsequent prothrombotic, atherogenic, and inflammatory effects after exposure. This review will evaluate the potential contribution of individual mediators and mechanisms in facilitating cardiopulmonary toxicity following inhalation of UFP and NP. Lastly, we will appraise the literature and propose a hypothesis regarding the possible role of mast cells in contributing to these systemic effects.

Abstract
Many patients that present with cerebral ischemia exhibit moderate to severe hyperglycemia. Although many hyperglycemic patients suffer from diagnosed or previously undiagnosed diabetes a further subset of individuals is hyperglycemic without diabetes. Hyperglycemia during cerebral ischemia is associated with high levels of mortality and morbidity and limits the effective treatment interventions available. Controlling hyperglycemia with insulin treatment in critical care situations improves overall outcomes, although it is not without risk. Therefore it is critically important to understand the basic mechanisms that underlie both the induction of hyperglycemia and the consequences of it for ischemic outcomes. In this manuscript, the neuroendocrine mediators, and mechanisms of hyperglycemia exacerbated inflammation, glucose dysregulation and ischemic outcomes are discussed. The possibility that the advanced glycation end product (AGE) and receptor for AGE (RAGE) axis mediates the deleterious effects of hyperglycemia on inflammation and neuronal damage is discussed.
