Abstract
Sepsis is a highly fatal disease that affects millions of people worldwide every year. Currently, the diagnosis of sepsis is made by identifying at least two symptoms of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), along with confirming the presence of microorganisms using a blood culture examination. Some biomarkers are already used to aid in the diagnosis, such as increased levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), leukocytes, immature granulocytes (IG), and bands. In addition, studies have shown a relationship between the expression of certain antigen receptors in the body's defense cells and its infectious state. CD64 is a receptor expressed in monocytes, and, in cases of infection, its expression is strongly observed in neutrophils. On the other hand, the class II MHC (major histocompatibility complex) marker, HLA-DR (human leukocyte antigen-DR), decreases its expression in monocytes in response to infection. This cohort study was conducted with 77 adult patients from a university hospital, divided into two groups: Non-Sepsis/SIRS and Sepsis/SIRS. The selected samples were analyzed by flow cytometry, identifying the expression of CD64 and HLA-DR according to their MFI, and calculating the sepsis index (SI) for each patient. All three parameters exhibited significant differences in expression between the two groups. When compared to the laboratory tests already in use, the utilization of HLA-DR, CD64, and the new index has shown greater sensitivity and specificity in identifying sepsis. This study contributes to knowledge about the relationship between the expression of antigens on defense cells and sepsis. The use of these biomarkers can help to improve the diagnosis and treatment of sepsis, which may contribute to the reduction of mortality related to the disease.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Sepsis is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Monocytes seem to undergo functional reprogramming during sepsis, resulting in dysregulated host immune response. To clarify this dysregulation mechanism, we investigated three histone modifications found in promoters of genes involved in innate immune response, and associated these findings with gene transcription in septic patients. These results were compared with public transcriptome data of the target genes and epigenetic enzymes that modulate the histone modifications. We used peripheral blood mononuclear cell from surviving and nonsurviving septic patients, and healthy volunteers to evaluate the expression of genes involved in innate immune response and the enrichment of H3K9ac, H3K4me3, and H3K27me3 in their promoters, by RT-qPCR and ChIP, respectively. Finally, we used transcriptome data sets to validate our findings. We found alterations in the chromatin enrichment of different genes, with an increase in H3K9ac in the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 and the antimicrobial gene FPR1 , as well as an increase in H3K27me3 in the IL-10 and HLA-DR promoter in nonsurvivors septic patients when compared with survivors. These alterations were partially associated with the gene expression profile. In addition, we found moderate to strong correlation between gene transcription and the enzymes that modulate these histone modifications in the transcriptome data sets. Our study, one of the pioneering by evaluating septic patients' samples, suggests that epigenetic enzymes modulate the prevalent histone marks in promoters of genes involved in the immune-inflammatory response, altering the transcription of these specific genes during sepsis. Furthermore, nonsurviving sepsis patients have a more pronounced epigenetic dysregulation compared with survivors, suggesting a more dysfunctional response.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis is a common gastrointestinal disease with increasing incidence worldwide. COVID-19 is a potentially life-threatening contagious disease spread throughout the world, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. More severe forms of both diseases exhibit commonalities with dysregulated immune responses resulting in amplified inflammation and susceptibility to infection. Human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-DR, expressed on antigen-presenting cells, acts as an indicator of immune function. Research advances have highlighted the predictive values of monocytic HLA-DR (mHLA-DR) expression for disease severity and infectious complications in both acute pancreatitis and COVID-19 patients. While the regulatory mechanism of altered mHLA-DR expression remains unclear, HLA-DR-/low monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells are potent drivers of immunosuppression and poor outcomes in these diseases. Future studies with mHLA-DR-guided enrollment or targeted immunotherapy are warranted in more severe cases of patients with acute pancreatitis and COVID-19.

Abstract
Sepsis is a heterogeneous disease with variable clinical course and several clinical phenotypes. As it is associated with an increased risk of death, patients with this condition are candidates for receipt of a very well-structured and protocolized treatment. All patients should receive the fundamental pillars of sepsis management, which are infection control, initial resuscitation, and multiorgan support. However, specific subgroups of patients may benefit from a personalized approach with interventions targeted towards specific pathophysiological mechanisms. Herein, we will review the framework for identifying subpopulations of patients with sepsis, septic shock, and multiorgan dysfunction who may benefit from specific therapies. Some of these approaches are still in the early stages of research, while others are already in routine use in clinical practice, but together will help in the effective generation and safe implementation of precision medicine in sepsis.

Abstract
Sepsis is a pathological condition frequently caused by invasion of a pathogen and the subsequent unregulated response that threatens the patient's life through diverse organ failure. The incidence of sepsis is increasing, and there is no specific therapy. Despite technological contributions to treat sepsis or increased knowledge of its molecular pathophysiology, mortality remains high, and sepsis is a global health problem. Knowledge of the role of the cells involved in the host response through the synthesis of inflammatory mediators and their different effects on cells, tissues or systems is key to the development of medical treatments that regulate systems involved in such responses to pathogens. This review addresses new insights into the role of cells, their mediators, and the interaction between them that lead to the development of a state of immunosuppression.

Abstract
Aim: A new one-step flow cytometry procedure has been recently demonstrated for identifying subjects with infections, but only for fresh whole blood samples. The goal of this study was to assess its applicability on frozen samples, by proposing a new method to perform the sample freezing directly and easily. Methods: Fresh blood was tested, then frozen either directly or with dimethylsulfoxide and serum. Common markers of white blood cells as well as infection-related biomarkers were tested. Results: All percentages of leucocyte subsets and levels of infection-related biomarkers were significantly correlated between frozen and fresh samples. Conclusion: The direct freezing method enables an accurate assessment of common cellular sub-populations and of levels of important infectious biomarkers via flow cytometry.

Abstract
Sepsis is a life-threatening medical condition that occurs when the host has an uncontrolled or abnormal immune response to overwhelming infection. It is now widely accepted that sepsis occurs in two concurrent phases, which consist of an initial immune activation phase followed by a chronic immunosuppressive phase, leading to immune cell death. Depending on the severity of the disease and the pathogen involved, the hosts immune system may not fully recover, leading to ongoing complications proceeding the initial infection. As such, sepsis remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality world-wide, with treatment options limited to general treatment in intensive care units (ICU). Lack of specific treatments available for sepsis is mostly due to our limited knowledge of the immuno-physiology associated with the disease. This review will provide a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms and cell types involved in eliciting infection-induced immune activation from both the innate and adaptive immune system during sepsis. In addition, the mechanisms leading to immune cell death following hyperactivation of immune cells will be explored. The evaluation and better understanding of the cellular and systemic responses leading to disease onset could eventuate into the development of much needed therapies to combat this unrelenting disease.

Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and monophosphoryl lipid A (MPLA) induce, overall, similar transcriptional profiles in healthy individuals, although LPS has been shown to more potently induce pro-inflammatory cytokines. We explore herein whether MPLA could be considered as a synthetic replacement of LPS in immune functional assays to study anergy of immune cells in septic patients. Ex vivo whole blood stimulation with MPLA revealed a lower induction of the TNFα secreted protein in 20 septic patients (SP) compared to 10 healthy volunteers (HV), in agreement with monocyte anergy. Principal component analysis of the 93-gene molecular response to MPLA and LPS stimulation found that the main variability was driven by stimulation in HV and by pathophysiology in SP. MPLA was a stronger inducer of the HLA family genes than LPS in both populations, arguing for divergent signalling pathways downstream of TLR-4. In addition, MPLA appeared to present a more informative stratification potential within the septic population.

Abstract
Ebola virus (EBOV) causes epidemics with high mortality yet remains understudied due to the challenge of experimentation in high-containment and outbreak settings. Here, we used single-cell transcriptomics and CyTOF-based single-cell protein quantification to characterize peripheral immune cells during EBOV infection in rhesus monkeys. We obtained 100,000 transcriptomes and 15,000,000 protein profiles, finding that immature, proliferative monocyte-lineage cells with reduced antigen-presentation capacity replace conventional monocyte subsets, while lymphocytes upregulate apoptosis genes and decline in abundance. By quantifying intracellular viral RNA, we identify molecular determinants of tropism among circulating immune cells and examine temporal dynamics in viral and host gene expression. Within infected cells, EBOV downregulates STAT1 mRNA and interferon signaling, and it upregulates putative pro-viral genes (e.g., DYNLL1 and HSPA5), nominating pathways the virus manipulates for its replication. This study sheds light on EBOV tropism, replication dynamics, and elicited immune response and provides a framework for characterizing host-virus interactions under maximum containment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Decreased expression of human leukocyte antigen-DR on monocytes (mHLA-DR) is recognized as the most appropriate marker for the monitoring of immune alterations in septic patients and critically ill subjects. Its measurement has been established for years by flow cytometry, but remains under-used due to pre-analytical constraints. The objectives of the present work were to develop a rapid and robust one-step protocol. METHODS A novel, simplified protocol has been developed to measure mHLA-DR in whole blood using flow cytometry. It is a one-step procedure that includes red cell lysis, antibodies, and fixative reagents. It has been compared to the standardized routine protocol in two consecutive cohorts of septic shock patients (n = 37). Finally, the protocol was applied to a few subjects in point-of-care settings, by collecting capillary blood from fingerpricks. RESULTS Strong correlation was observed between the one-step method and routine protocol in 24 patients. After testing several stabilizing agents, the procedure was further optimized by adding a low-dose formaldehyde to the stain and lyse solution. This improved method was tested in a second cohort of 13 patients, and again strongly correlated to the routine protocol. Finally, the fingerprick and venous puncture samples were shown to provide similar results. CONCLUSIONS The present work demonstrates the feasibility of a bedside protocol for flow cytometry measurement of mHLA-DR in critically ill subjects. This helps overcome pre-analytical constraints previously identified, which have limited wider use of this biomarker in intensive care units. In addition, preliminary results from fingerprick samples are promising.

Abstract
Sepsis is characterized by dynamic changes of the immune system resulting in deregulated inflammation and failure of homoeostasis and can escalate to septic shock. Circulating monocytes and other innate immune cells are among the first ones to recognize and clear pathogens. Monocytes have an important role in sepsis and septic shock and have been studied as potential diagnostic markers. In total, forty‐two patients with septic shock were recruited and blood samples obtained within first 12 hours of ICU admission. We showed that frequency of classical and intermediate monocytes assessed at the time of admission to the intensive care unit are significantly distinct in patients with septic shock who survived longer that five days from those who died. These parameters correlate significantly with differences in serum levels of inflammatory cytokines MCP‐1, IL‐6, IL‐8, IL‐10, and IL‐18, and with the proportion of helper and cytotoxic T cells. The described changes in frequency of monocyte subsets and their activation status may predict short‐term septic shock survival and help with fast identification of the group of vulnerable patients, who may profit from tailored therapy.

Abstract
In Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia, our group has shown that a dysregulated balance of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine response biased towards an immunoparalysis phenotype is predictive of persistence and mortality, despite receipt of antibiotics. Certain antibiotics, as well as lipoteichoic acid (LTA) released from S. aureus, can modulate immune response ex vivo. Here, we evaluated the effects of three anti-staphylococcal antibiotics (vancomycin, tedizolid, and daptomycin) on the expression of cytokines and cell surface markers of immune activation (TNFα, HLA-DR) and immunoparalysis (IL-10, PD-L1) in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) exposed to high (10 μg) and low (1 μg) doses of LTA. Results suggested a dose-dependent relationship between LTA and induction of anti- and pro-inflammatory immune responses. Differential antibiotic effects were prominently observed at high but not low LTA condition. Vancomycin significantly induced IL-10 and TNFα expression, whereas daptomycin had no effects on cytokine response or expression of cell surface receptors. Tedizolid increased TNFα and modestly increased HLA-DR expression, suggesting a stimulatory effect. These findings suggest that anti-staphylococcal agents differentially alter LTA-mediated immune cell activation status and cytokine response, providing support for future clinical studies to better elucidate the complexities of host–microbial–antibiotic interaction that can help direct precision therapy for S. aureus bacteremia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis is defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Numerous studies have explored the complex and dynamic transcriptome modulations observed in sepsis patients, but a large fraction of the transcriptome remains unexplored. This fraction could provide information to better understand sepsis pathophysiology. Multiple levels of interaction between human endogenous retroviruses (HERV) and the immune response have led us to hypothesize that sepsis is associated with HERV transcription and that HERVs may contribute to a signature among septic patients allowing stratification and personalized management. METHODS We used a high-density microarray and RT-qPCR to evaluate the HERV and Mammalian Apparent Long Terminal Repeat retrotransposons (MaLR) transcriptome in a pilot study that included 20 selected septic shock patients, stratified on mHLA-DR expression, with samples collected on day 1 and day 3 after inclusion. We validated the results in an unselected, independent cohort that included 100 septic shock patients on day 3 after inclusion. We compared septic shock patients, according to their immune status, to describe the transcriptional HERV/MaLR and conventional gene expression. For differential expression analyses, moderated t tests were performed and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were used to analyze RT-qPCR results. RESULTS We showed that 6.9% of the HERV/MaLR repertoire was transcribed in the whole blood, and septic shock was associated with an early modulation of a few thousand of these loci, in comparison to healthy volunteers. We provided evidence that a subset of HERV/MaLR and conventional genes were differentially expressed in septic shock patients, according to their immune status, using monocyte HLA-DR (mHLA-DR) expression as a proxy. A group of 193 differentially expressed HERV/MaLR probesets, tested in an independent septic shock cohort, identified two groups of patients with different immune status and severity features. CONCLUSION We demonstrated that a large, unexplored part of our genome, which codes for HERV/MaLR, may be linked to the host immune response. The identified set of HERV/MaLR probesets should be evaluated on a large scale to assess the relevance of these loci in the stratification of septic shock patients. This may help to address the heterogeneity of these patients.

Front Immunol 2019; 10:2179.

Abstract
Background: Septic shock, a major cause of death in critical care, is the clinical translation of a cytokine storm in response to infection. It can be complicated by sepsis-induced immunosuppression, exemplified by blood lymphopenia, an excess of circulating Treg lymphocytes, and decreased HLA-DR expression on circulating monocytes. Such immunosuppression is associated with secondary infections, and higher mortality. The effect of these biological modifications on circulating innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) has been little studied. Methods: We prospectively enrolled patients with septic shock (Sepsis-3 definition) in the intensive care unit (ICU) of Timone CHU Hospital. ICU controls (trauma, cardiac arrest, neurological dysfunction) were recruited at the same time (NCT03297203). We performed immunophenotyping of adaptive lymphocytes (CD3+ T cells, CD19+ B cells, CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ Treg lymphocytes), ILCs (CD3−CD56+ NK cells and helper ILCs – ILC1, ILC2, and ILC3), and monocytes by flow cytometry on fresh blood samples collected between 24 and 72 h after admission. Results: We investigated adaptive and innate circulating lymphoid cells in the peripheral blood of 18 patients in septic shock, 15 ICU controls, and 30 healthy subjects. As expected, the peripheral blood lymphocytes of all ICU patients showed lymphopenia, which was not specific to sepsis, whereas those of the healthy volunteers did not. Circulating CD3+ T cells and CD3−CD56+ NK cells were mainly concerned. There was a tendency toward fewer Treg lymphocytes and lower HLA-DR expression on monocytes in ICU patients with sepsis. Although the ILC1 count was higher in septic patients than healthy subjects, ILC2, and ILC3 counts were lower in both ICU groups. However, ILC3s within the total ILCs were overrepresented in patients with septic shock. The depression of immune responses has been correlated with the occurrence of secondary infections. We did not find any differences in ILC distribution according to this criterion. Conclusion: All ICU patients exhibit lymphopenia, regardless of the nature (septic or sterile) of the initial medical condition. Specific distribution of circulating ILCs, with an excess of ILC1, and a lack of ILC3, may characterize septic shock during the first 3 days of the disease.

Abstract
Complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAIs) are still associated with high morbidity and mortality levels. Early prognostic evaluation is a great challenge, and a serious amount of resources have been used to find the perfect mortality predictor. Monocyte human leukocyte antigen-DR (mHLA-DR) expression has been studied as a biomarker in patients with sepsis and other infections. Our aim was to evaluate the potential prognostic performance of mHLA-DR in patients with cIAIs. Methods: We performed an electronic search of Google Scholar and PubMed databases for articles published before January 2019. The search terms were "HLA-DR," "monocyte HLA-DR," "intra-abdominal infections," "sepsis," "outcome," and "mortality." Results: A total of 12 studies with 761 patients met our inclusion criteria. In 10 studies, poor outcome was predicted by lower mHLA-DR expression, and two studies showed no prognostic value. Conclusion: This review found association between lower mHLA-DR expression and mortality. We concluded that mHLA-DR could be a reliable and meaningful predictor of poor outcome in patients with cIAIs. Nevertheless, more large prospective studies with surgical patients exclusively are needed before using this biomarker in a clinical setting.

Abstract
Gravitational stress in general and microgravity (µg) in particular are regarded as major stress factors responsible for immune system dysfunction in space. To assess the effects of alternating µg and hypergravity (hyper-g) on immune cells, the attachment of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) to adhesion molecules under flow conditions and the antigen-induced immune activation in whole blood were investigated in parabolic flight (PF). In contrast to hyper-g (1.8 g) and control conditions (1 g), flow and rolling speed of PBMCs were moderately accelerated during µg-periods which were accompanied by a clear reduction in rolling rate. Whole blood analyses revealed a "primed" state of monocytes after PF with potentiated antigen-induced pro-inflammatory cytokine responses. At the same time, concentrations of anti-inflammatory cytokines were increased and monocytes displayed a surface molecule pattern that indicated immunosuppression. The results suggest an immunologic counterbalance to avoid disproportionate immune responses. Understanding the interrelation of immune system impairing and enhancing effects under different gravitational conditions may support the design of countermeasures to mitigate immune deficiencies in space.

Abstract
Immune dysfunction is seen both in sepsis patients and in those with malnutrition. This study aimed to determine whether insufficient nutrition and immune dysfunction have a synergistic effect on mortality in critically ill septic patients. We conducted a prospective observational study from adult sepsis patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) between August 2013 and June 2016. Baseline characteristics including age, gender, body mass index, NUTRIC, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores were recorded. Immune dysfunction, defined by human leukocyte antigen DR (HLA-DR) expression, was tested at days 1, 3, and 7 of ICU admission. The study included 151 patients with sepsis who were admitted to the ICU. The 28-day survivors had higher day 7 caloric intakes (89% vs. 73%, p = 0.042) and higher day 1-HLA-DR expression (88.4 vs. 79.1, p = 0.045). The cut-off points of day 7 caloric intake and day 1-HLA-DR determined by operating characteristic curves were 65.1% and 87.2%, respectively. Immune dysfunction was defined as patients with day 1-HLA-DR < 87.2%. Insufficient nutrition had no influence on survival outcomes in patients with immune dysfunction. However, patients with insufficient nutrition had poor prognosis when they were immune competent. Insufficient nutrition and immune dysfunction did not have a synergistic effect on mortality in critically ill septic patients.

Abstract
Sepsis is an important health problem with a high burden on health systems. Finding new aspects of immune system function in sepsis showed a new role for flow cytometry in the diagnosis of sepsis. We made a review on the role of CD64, HLA-DR, CD25, and TLRs as more useful flow cytometric tools in diagnosing sepsis, both in adults, and neonates. According to our results, we concluded that for diagnosis and treatment of the septic, flow cytometry can play an important role so that it can be used as a novel method in individualized treatment of septic patients based on their immune system situation.

Abstract
Immune therapy to ease the burden of sepsis has thus far failed to consistently improve patient outcomes. Advances in cancer immune therapy and awareness that prolonged immune-suppression in sepsis can leave patients vulnerable to secondary infection and death have driven resurgence in the field of sepsis immune-therapy investigation. As we develop and evaluate these novel therapies, we must learn from past experiences where single-mediator targeted immune therapies were blindly delivered to heterogeneous patient cohorts with complex and evolving immune responses. Advances in genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and point-of-care technology, coupled with a better understanding of sepsis pathogenesis, have meant that personalised immune-therapy is on the horizon. Here, we review the complex immune pathogenesis in sepsis and the contemporary immune therapies that are being investigated to manipulate this response. An outline of the immune biomarkers that may be used to support this approach is also provided.

Post-operative immune suppression is mediated via reversible, Interleukin-10 dependent pathways in circulating monocytes following major abdominal surgery. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0203795.

Abstract
Introduction Post-operative infections occur frequently following major surgery. The magnitude of the post-operative immune response is associated with an increased risk of post-operative infections, although the mechanisms driving post-operative immune-dysfunction and the potential reversibility of this response with immune stimulants are not well understood. This study aims to describe the immediate immune response to major surgery and establish links to both post-operative infection and functional aspects of immune dysregulation. We also investigate the potential of clinically available immune stimulants to reverse features of post-operative immune-dysfunction. Methods Patients over 45 years old undergoing elective gastro-intestinal surgery with planned post-operative surgical ICU admission were recruited. The expression of selected genes was determined pre-operatively and at 2, 24 and 48 hours post-operatively using qRT-PCR. Circulating levels of Interleukin-10 protein were determined by ELISA. Peri-operative cell surface monocyte HLA-DR (mHLA-DR) expression was determined using flow cytometry. Gene expression and mHLA-DR levels were determined in healthy monocytes cultured in peri-operative serum with and without neutralising antibodies and immune stimulants. Results 119 patients were recruited; 44 developed a post-operative infection. Interleukin-10 mRNA and protein increased 4-fold post-operatively (P<0.0001), peaking within 2 hours of the procedure. Higher post-operative Interleukin-10 mRNA (P = 0.007) and protein (P = 0.001) levels were associated with an increased risk of infection. Cell surface mHLA-DR expression fell post-operatively (P<0.0001). Reduced production, rather than intracellular sequestration, accounted for the post-operative decline in cell surface mHLA-DR expression. Interleukin-10 antibody prevented the decrease in mHLA-DR expression observed when post-operative serum was added to healthy monocytes. GM-CSF and IFN-γ prevented the decline in mHLA-DR production through distinct pathways. Conclusions Monocyte dysfunction and features of immune suppression occur frequently after major surgery. Greater post-operative Interleukin-10 production is associated with later infection. Interleukin-10 is an important mediator of post-operative reductions in mHLA-DR expression, while clinically available immune stimulants can restore mHLA-DR levels.

Abstract
Sepsis is known since the time (470 BC) of great Greek physician, Hippocrates. Advancement in modern medicine and establishment of separate branches of medical science dealing with sepsis research have improved its outcome. However, mortality associated with sepsis still remains higher (25-30%) that further increases to 40-50% in the presence of septic shock. For example, sepsis-associated deaths account more in comparison to deaths-associated with myocardial-infarction and certain cancers (i.e. breast and colorectal cancer). However, it is now well established that profound activation of innate immune cells including macrophages play a very important role in the immunopathogenesis of sepsis. Macrophages are sentinel cells of the innate immune system with their location varying from peripheral blood to various target organs including lungs, liver, brain, kidneys, skin, testes, vascular endothelium etc. Thus, profound and dysregulated activation of these cells during sepsis can directly impact the outcome of sepsis. However, the emergence of the concept of immunometabolism as a major controller of immune response has raised a new hope for identifying new targets for immunomodulatory therapeutic approaches. Thus this present review starts with an introduction of sepsis as a major medical problem worldwide and signifies the role of dysregulated innate immune response including macrophages in its immunopathogenesis. Thereafter, subsequent sections describe changes in immunometabolic stage of macrophages (both M1 and M2) during sepsis. The article ends with the discussion of novel macrophage-specific therapeutic targets targeting their immunometabolism during sepsis and epigenetic regulation of macrophage immunometabolism and vice versa.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Demonstrate that DNA viremia is common in pediatric sepsis and quantitate its associations with host immune function and secondary infection risk. DESIGN Retrospective analysis of a prospective cohort study. PATIENTS Seventy-three children admitted with sepsis-induced organ failure. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS This study was performed as an ancillary investigation to a single-center prospective study of children with severe sepsis. Longitudinally collected, batched, frozen plasma was examined using real time-polymerase chain reaction for the presence of cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, herpes simplex virus, human herpes virus-6, torque teno virus, and adenovirus DNA. Innate immune function was also measured longitudinally via quantification of ex vivo lipopolysaccharide -induced tumor necrosis factor-α production capacity. Viral DNAemia with a virus other than torque teno virus was detected in 28 of 73 subjects (38%) and included cytomegalovirus 5%, Epstein-Barr virus 11%, herpes simplex virus 4%, human herpes virus-6 8%, and adenovirus 26%. In addition, torque teno virus was detected in 89%. Epstein-Barr virus DNAemia was associated with preexisting immune suppression (p = 0.007) Viral DNAemia was associated with preexisting immune suppression and high risk for the subsequent development of secondary infection (p < 0.05 for both). Subjects with viral DNAemia had lower innate immune function over time compared with those who were virus negative (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS DNAemia from multiple viruses can be detected in septic children and is strongly associated with preexisting immune suppression and secondary infection risk. The role of DNA viruses in the perpetuation of impaired host defense in this setting should be the subject of prospective study.

Abstract
Sepsis represents a dysregulated immune response to infection, with a continuum of severity progressing to septic shock. This dysregulated response generally follows a pattern by which an initial hyperinflammatory phase is followed by a state of sepsis-associated immunosuppression. Major challenges in improving sepsis care include developing strategies to ensure early and accurate identification and diagnosis of the disease process, improving our ability to predict outcomes and stratify patients, and the need for novel sepsis-specific treatments such as immunomodulation. Biomarkers offer promise with all three of these challenges and are likely also to be the solution to determining a patient’s immune status; something that is critical in guiding effective and safe immunomodulatory therapy. Currently available biomarkers used in sepsis lack sensitivity and specificity, among other significant shortcomings. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is an emerging topic of research with evidence suggesting a ubiquitous presence on both central and peripheral tissues, including an intrinsic link with immune function. This review will first discuss the state of sepsis biomarkers and lack of available treatments, followed by an introduction to the ECS and a discussion of its potential to provide novel biomarkers and treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis-induced immune dysfunction ranging from cytokines storm to immunoparalysis impacts outcomes. Monitoring immune dysfunction enables better risk stratification and mortality prediction and is mandatory before widely application of immunoadjuvant therapies. We aimed to develop and validate a scoring system according to patients' immune dysfunction status for 28-day mortality prediction. METHODS A prospective observational study from a cohort of adult sepsis patients admitted to ICU between August 2013 and June 2016 at Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan. We evaluated immune dysfunction status through measurement of baseline plasma Cytokine levels, Monocyte human leukocyte-DR expression by flow cytometry, and stimulated immune response using post LPS stimulated cytokine elevation ratio. An immune dysfunction score was created for 28-day mortality prediction and was validated. RESULTS A total of 151 patients were enrolled. Data of the first consecutive 106 septic patients comprised the training cohort, and of other 45 patients comprised the validation cohort. Among the 106 patients, 21 died and 85 were still alive on day 28 after ICU admission. (mortality rate, 19.8%). Independent predictive factors revealed via multivariate logistic regression analysis included segmented neutrophil-to-monocyte ratio, granulocyte-colony stimulating factor, interleukin-10, and monocyte human leukocyte antigen-antigen D-related levels, all of which were selected to construct the score, which predicted 28-day mortality with area under the curve of 0.853 and 0.789 in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The immune dysfunction scoring system developed here included plasma granulocyte-colony stimulating factor level, interleukin-10 level, serum segmented neutrophil-to-monocyte ratio, and monocyte human leukocyte antigen-antigen D-related expression appears valid and reproducible for predicting 28-day mortality.

Human leucocyte antigen (HLA-DR) gene expression is reduced in sepsis and correlates with impaired TNFα response: A diagnostic tool for immunosuppression? PLoS One 2017; 12:e0182427. [PMID: 28771573 PMCID: PMC5542660 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0182427] [Citation(s) in RCA: 86] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2016] [Accepted: 07/18/2017] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Sepsis is defined as a dysregulated immune response to infection. Impaired immune response in sepsis, often described as endotoxin tolerance, is characterized by unresponsiveness of monocytes on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation to release tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα). Furthermore, decreased monocyte surface protein expression of human leucocyte antigen DR (HLA-DR) is a marker for changes of the innate immune response during sepsis. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and flow-cytometry (FACS) have been used to measure protein or gene expression of HLA-DR. We aimed to determine whether changes in mRNA expression of HLA-DR are associated with impaired TNFα response in human sepsis. Methods Surface protein together with mRNA expression of HLA-DR were measured by FACS and qPCR in a cohort of 9 sepsis patients and compared to 10 pre-operative control patients in a prospective study. In addition, 20 patients with post-surgical inflammation, 20 patients with sepsis or septic shock were included and TNFα was determined following ex vivo stimulation of whole blood with 500 pg/mL LPS. Total RNA was prepared from whole blood and subjected to qPCR analysis for expression analysis of HLA-DR alpha (HLA-DRA) to correlate TNFα response with HLA-DRA expression. Results Patients with sepsis presented higher numbers of monocytes in peripheral blood (P<0.001) but decreased surface protein and mRNA HLA-DR levels when compared to controls. In all patients mRNA expression of HLA-DRA was decreased by approximately 70% compared to controls (P<0.01) and was lowest in patients with sepsis or septic shock (P<0.01). TNFα response to LPS was decreased in all patients (median 319 pg/mL versus controls 1256 pg/mL; P<0.01) and lowest in patients with sepsis or septic shock (median 128 pg/mL; P<0.01). HLA-DRA correlated positively with TNFα response in all study participants (r +0.60, P<0.001) and within patients (r +0.67, P<0.001). The TNFα:HLA-DRA ratio correlated negatively with severity and the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score (Spearman’s rho -0.59, P<0.001) Conclusion In this study, HLA-DRA expression was associated with a functional assay of the innate immune response. Future interventional studies aimed at the immune response during sepsis could make use of these methods for optimizing target groups based on biological plausibility and intervention effectiveness.

Abstract
Sepsis occurs when an infection exceeds local tissue containment and induces a series of dysregulated physiologic responses that result in organ dysfunction. A subset of patients with sepsis progress to septic shock, defined by profound circulatory, cellular, and metabolic abnormalities, and associated with a greater mortality. Historically, sepsis-induced organ dysfunction and lethality were attributed to the complex interplay between the initial inflammatory and later anti-inflammatory responses. With advances in intensive care medicine and goal-directed interventions, early 30-day sepsis mortality has diminished, only to steadily escalate long after "recovery" from acute events. As so many sepsis survivors succumb later to persistent, recurrent, nosocomial, and secondary infections, many investigators have turned their attention to the long-term sepsis-induced alterations in cellular immune function. Sepsis clearly alters the innate and adaptive immune responses for sustained periods of time after clinical recovery, with immune suppression, chronic inflammation, and persistence of bacterial representing such alterations. Understanding that sepsis-associated immune cell defects correlate with long-term mortality, more investigations have centered on the potential for immune modulatory therapy to improve long-term patient outcomes. These efforts are focused on more clearly defining and effectively reversing the persistent immune cell dysfunction associated with long-term sepsis mortality.

Abstract
Background Immunoparalysis was observed in both patients with cancer and sepsis. In cancer patients, Cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 and programmed cell death protein 1/programmed death-ligand 1 axis are two key components of immunoparalysis. Several emerging therapies against these two axes gained significant clinical benefit. In severe sepsis patients, immunoparalysis was known as compensatory anti-inflammatory response syndrome and this has been suggested as an important cause of death in patients with sepsis. It would be interesting to see if immune status was different in severe sepsis patients with or without active cancer. The aim of this study was to assess the differences in immune profiles, and clinical outcomes between severe sepsis patients with or without cancer admitted to ICU. Methods A combined retrospective and prospective observational study from a cohort of adult sepsis patients admitted to three medical ICUs at Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan between August 2013 and June 2016. Results Of the 2744 patients admitted to the ICU, 532 patients with sepsis were included. Patients were divided into those with or without active cancer according to their medical history. Of the 532 patients, 95 (17.9%) patients had active cancer, and 437 (82.1%) patients had no active cancer history. Patients with active cancer were younger (p = 0.001) and were less likely to have diabetes mellitus (p < 0.001), hypertension (p < 0.001), coronary artery disease (p = 0.004), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (p = 0.002) or stroke (p = 0.002) compared to patients without active cancer. Patients with active cancer also exhibited higher baseline lactate levels (p = 0.038), and higher baseline plasma interleukin (IL)-10 levels (p = 0.040), higher trend of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) (p = 0.004) compared to patients without active cancer. The 14-day, 28-day and 90-day mortality rates were higher for patients with active cancer than those without active cancer (P < 0.001 for all intervals). Conclusions Among patients admitted to the ICU with sepsis, those with underling active cancer had higher baseline levels of plasma IL-10, higher trend of G-CSF and higher mortality rate than those without active cancer.

Abstract
Sepsis is a leading cause of death and long-term sequels worldwide. For more than a decade, the scientific community is providing physicians, patients and policy makers with regularly updated guidelines. There is some evidence that implementation of the Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines is associated with improved patients outcomes. Though there were major advances in the understanding of sepsis, the management of sepsis mainly relies on anti-infective treatments and restoration of cardiovascular and respiratory function according to quantitative protocolized care. Except some hormonal interventions such as insulin to maintain blood glucose levels of less than 180mg/dL and low doses of corticosteroids and vasopressin in highly selected patients, there is no adjunct therapy for the routine management of sepsis. Recent years have shown some interest in revolutionary concepts such as selective beta-1 receptor antagonists or interventions to boost the immune system. These provocative approaches yielded promising results in various experimental models of sepsis and in preliminary data in humans. The current narrative review summarized some of the numerous adjunct therapies that are currently being investigated in sepsis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis, systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) remain the most frequent causes of complications and death in severely injured patients. A main reason for the development of these syndromes is a post-traumatic dysregulation of the immune system. Several studies in intensive care unit (ICU) patients could detect a pivotal role of HLA-DR expression on monocytes. So far, its importance for development of SIRS, sepsis or MODS in the severely injured patient is not clear. METHODS Therefore, we have analysed HLA-DR expression on monocytes from severely injured patients (ISS > 16) during the post-traumatic course, which was on the day of trauma, as well as on days 3, 7 and 14 post trauma. Clinical data were analysed and the HLA-DR expression levels of patients who developed post-traumatic sepsis, SIRS or MODS were compared to those with a more favourable outcome. Young and healthy volunteers as well as patients undergoing prosthetic hip replacement after trauma were enrolled as control groups. HLA-DR molecules on monocytes were marked with PE-conjugated antibodies and the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) was analysed via flow cytometry. RESULTS 24 severely injured patients (mean age 34 ± 2.7 years) mainly after high energy motor vehicle accidents as well as 8 controls (total hip replacement) and 9 healthy volunteers (mean age 26.2 ± 1.2 years) were enrolled. A total of eight patients suffered from sepsis (33.3 %) (six males, two females) and 17 patients suffered from SIRS (70.9 %) (10 males, 7 females). MODS was present in five patients (20.8 %), three male and two female patients. In four of these five patients the MODS developed subsequent to sepsis. HLA-DR expression significantly decreased after trauma and slowly returned to normal after 14 days, irrespective of the complications developed. CONCLUSION In conclusion, post-traumatic HLA-DR expression on monocytes is significantly reduced after multiple trauma and it is back to normal on day 14. No significant changes in HLA-DR expression on monocytes from severely injured patients suffering from SIRS, MODS or sepsis compared to those who did not have complications could be detected. Nevertheless, HLA-DR expression on monocytes may be used to identify the immunological pro- or anti-inflammatory phase the patient is going through.

Abstract
Observational clinical studies suggest the initial phase of sepsis may involve impaired cellular immunity. In the present study, we investigated temporal changes in T-cell subsets and T-cell cytokine production during human endotoxemia. Endotoxin (Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide 4 ng/kg) was administered intravenously in 15 healthy volunteers. Peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were collected at baseline and after 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours for flow cytometry. CD4+CD25+CD127lowFoxp3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs), CD4+CD161+ cells, and activated Human leukocyte antigen, HLA-DR+CD38+ T cells were determined. Ex vivo whole-blood cytokine production and Toll-like receptor (TLR)-4 expression on Tregs were measured. Absolute number of CD3+CD4+ (P = .026), CD3+CD8+ (P = .046), Tregs (P = .023), and CD4+CD161+ cells (P = .042) decreased after endotoxin administration. The frequency of anti-inflammatory Tregs increased (P = .033), whereas the frequency of proinflammatory CD4+CD161+ cells decreased (P = .034). Endotoxemia was associated with impaired whole-blood production of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-10, IL-6, IL-17, IL-2, and interferon-γ in response to phytohaemagglutinin but did not affect TLR4 expression on Tregs. No changes in the absolute count or frequency of BALF T cells were observed. Systemic inflammation is associated with lymphopenia, a relative increase in the frequency of anti-inflammatory Tregs, and a functional impairment of T-cell cytokine production.

Abstract
Septic syndromes remain a major although largely under-recognized health care problem and represent the first cause of mortality in intensive care units. While sepsis has, for long, been solely described as inducing a tremendous systemic inflammatory response, novel findings indicate that sepsis indeed initiates a more complex immunologic response that varies over time, with the concomitant occurrence of both pro- and anti-inflammatory mechanisms. As a resultant, after a short proinflammatory phase, septic patients enter a stage of protracted immunosuppression. This is illustrated in those patients by reactivation of dormant viruses (CMV or HSV) or infections due to pathogens, including fungi, which are normally pathogenic solely in immunocompromised hosts. Although mechanisms are not totally understood, these alterations might be directly responsible for worsening outcome in patients who survived initial resuscitation as nearly all immune functions are deeply compromised. Indeed, the magnitude and persistence over time of these dysfunctions have been associated with increased mortality and health-care associated infection rate. Consequently, new promising therapeutic avenues are currently emerging from those recent findings such as adjunctive immunostimulation (IFN-γ, GM-CSF, IL-7, anti-PD1/L1 antibodies) for the most immunosuppressed patients. Nevertheless, as there is no clinical sign of immune dysfunctions, the prerequisite for such therapeutic intervention relies on our capacity in identifying the patients who could benefit from immunostimulation. To date, the most robust biomarkers of sepsis-induced immunosuppression are measured by flow cytometry. Of them, the decreased expression of monocyte HLA-DR appears as a "gold standard." This review reports on the mechanisms sustaining sepsis-induced immunosuppression and its related biomarkers measurable by flow cytometry. The objective is to integrate the most recent facts in an up-to-date account of clinical results, flow cytometry aspects as well as issues in results standardization for multicenter studies. © 2015 International Clinical Cytometry Society.
