Abstract
Background This study aimed to assess the potential of serum interleukin-6 (IL-6) as a diagnostic marker in predicting bacteremia and to determine its association with severity and outcome among sepsis patients. Materials and methods A prospective observational study was conducted, comprising a cohort of 118 patients admitted to the ICU with suspected sepsis from January 2019 to April 2020. Results Among the 108 patients analyzed, 60 (55.6%) were bacteremic and 48 (44.4%) were nonbacteremic. Of 60 patients with bacteremia, 13 (21.6%) had sepsis and 47 (78.3%) had septic shock. In predicting bacteremia, the area under the curve (AUC) for IL-6 was 0.512 [95% CI, 0.400-0.623]. The AUC for IL-6 in differentiating sepsis from septic shock was 0.724 [95% CI, 0.625-0.823]. The sensitivity and specificity for predicting bacteremia for IL-6 were 66% and 67%, respectively (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that C-reactive protein (CRP) (p = 0.04) and APACHE II score (p = 0.025) were significant predictors of bacteremia, whereas lactate (p = 0.04), and APACHE II score (p < 0.001) were significant predictors of sepsis severity. Patients with elevated levels of procalcitonin PCT (p = 0.024), APACHE II (p = 0.003), and SOFA (p = 0.002) scores had significantly higher mortality rates. Conclusion C-reactive protein and APACHE II score, lactate and APACHE II score, and PCT, SOFA, and APACHE II scores performed better in predicting bacteremia, sepsis severity, and clinical outcome, respectively compared with IL-6.

Microglia-mediated neuroinflammation is considered a pathological feature of Parkinson’s disease. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell-1 (TREM-1) can amplify the inherent immune response, and crucially, regulate inflammation. In this study, we found marked elevation of serum soluble TREM-1 in patients with Parkinson’s disease that positively correlated with Parkinson’s disease severity and dyskinesia. In a mouse model of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine-induced Parkinson’s disease, we found that microglial TREM-1 expression also increased in the substantia nigra. Further, TREM-1 knockout alleviated dyskinesia in a mouse model of Parkinson’s disease and reduced dopaminergic neuronal injury. Meanwhile, TREM-1 knockout attenuated the neuroinflammatory response, dopaminergic neuronal injury, and neutrophil migration. Next, we established an in vitro 1-methyl-4-phenyl-pyridine-induced BV2 microglia model of Parkinson’s disease and treated the cells with the TREM-1 inhibitory peptide LP17. We found that LP17 treatment reduced apoptosis of dopaminergic neurons and neutrophil migration. Moreover, inhibition of neutrophil TREM-1 activation diminished dopaminergic neuronal apoptosis induced by lipopolysaccharide. TREM-1 can activate the downstream CARD9/NF-κB proinflammatory pathway via interaction with SYK. These findings suggest that TREM-1 may play a key role in mediating the damage to dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson’s disease by regulating the interaction between microglia and peripheral neutrophils.

Abstract
Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) is a pattern recognition receptor and plays a critical role in the immune response. TREM-1 activation leads to the production and release of proinflammatory cytokines, chemokines, as well as its own expression and circulating levels of the cleaved soluble extracellular portion of TREM-1 (sTREM-1). Because patients with sepsis and septic shock show elevated sTREM-1 levels, TREM-1 has attracted attention as an important contributor to the inadequate immune response in this often-deadly condition. Since 2001, when the first blockade of TREM-1 in sepsis was performed, many potential TREM-1 inhibitors have been established in animal models. However, only one of them, nangibotide, has entered clinical trials, which have yielded promising data for future treatment of sepsis, septic shock, and other inflammatory disease such as COVID-19. This review discusses the TREM-1 pathway and important ligands, and highlights the development of novel inhibitors as well as their clinical potential for targeted treatment of various inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
Mortality in acute infections is mostly associated with sepsis, defined as 'life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection'. It remains challenging to identify the patients with increased mortality risk due to the high heterogeneity in the dysregulated host immune response and disease progression. Biomarkers reflecting different pathways involved in the inflammatory response might improve prediction of mortality risk (prognostic enrichment) among patients with acute infections by reducing heterogeneity of the host response, as well as suggest novel strategies for patient stratification and treatment (predictive enrichment) through precision medicine approaches. The predictive value of inflammatory biomarkers has been extensively investigated in bacterial infections and the recent COVID-19 pandemic caused an increased interest in inflammatory biomarkers in this viral infection. However, limited research investigated whether the prognostic potential of these biomarkers differs between bacterial and viral infections. In this narrative review, we provide an overview of the value of various inflammatory biomarkers for the prediction of mortality in bacterial and viral infections.

Abstract
Sepsis-acquired immunosuppression may play a major role in patients' prognosis through increased risk of secondary infections. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM-1) is an innate immune receptor involved in cellular activation. Its soluble form (sTREM-1) has been described as a robust marker of mortality in sepsis. The objective of this study was to evaluate its association with the occurrence of nosocomial infections alone or in combination with human leucocyte antigen-DR on monocytes (mHLA-DR). DESIGN Observational study. SETTING University Hospital in France. PATIENTS One hundred sixteen adult septic shock patients as a post hoc study from the IMMUNOSEPSIS cohort (NCT04067674). INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Plasma sTREM-1 and monocyte HLA-DR were measured at day 1 or 2 (D1/D2), D3/D4, and D6/D8 after admission. Associations with nosocomial infection were evaluated through multivariable analyses. At D6/D8, both markers were combined, and association with increased risk of nosocomial infection was evaluated in the subgroup of patients with most deregulated markers in a multivariable analysis with death as a competing risk. Significantly decreased mHLA-DR at D6/D8 and increased sTREM-1 concentrations were measured at all time points in nonsurvivors compared with survivors. Decreased mHLA-DR at D6/D8 was significantly associated with increased risk of secondary infections after adjustment for clinical parameters with a subdistribution hazard ratio of 3.61 (95% CI, 1.39-9.34; p = 0.008). At D6/D8, patients with persistently high sTREM-1 and decreased mHLA-DR presented with a significantly increased risk of infection (60%) compared with other patients (15.7%). This association remained significant in the multivariable model (subdistribution hazard ratio [95% CI], 4.65 [1.98-10.9]; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In addition to its prognostic interest on mortality, sTREM-1, when combined with mHLA-DR, may help to better identify immunosuppressed patients at risk of nosocomial infections.

Abstract
Purpose At present, simple, accurate, and efficient prognostic tools for the evaluation of cases with early-stage sepsis in the emergency department (ED) are lacking. An increased blood urea nitrogen to albumin ratio (BAR) has previously been shown to be a valuable biomarker with predictive utility in several diseases. The relationship between BAR and sepsis patient outcomes, however, is not well-understood. This exploration was thus developed for the exploration of the link between BAR values and the short-term prognosis of cases with sepsis. Methods This was a retrospective cohort research of sepsis cases admitted to the West China Hospital of Sichuan University ED from July 2015 to June 2016. Laboratory data were collected upon ED admission, and 7-day all-cause mortality was the primary study endpoint. Relationships between BAR values and APACE II and SOFA scores were generated assessed with correlation coefficient heatmaps. Independent risk factors were identified through multivariate analyses, with the curves of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) being employed to gauge the value of BAR as a predictor of the risk of mortality in sepsis cases. Results In sum, 801 patients participated in the present investigation. BAR values were strongly correlated with APACHE II and SOFA scores. In a multivariate logistic regression assessment, BAR was identified as an independent predictor of mortality among patients with sepsis (HR=1.032, 95% CI: 1.010–1.055, P=0.004). BAR exhibited an AUC of 0.741 (95% CI: 0.688–0.793, P<0.001) when used to predict patient mortality risk, with 5.27 being the optimal BAR cut-off. Conclusion We found that BAR can be used as a reliable biomarker to predict mortality in patients with sepsis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Patients with cirrhosis are susceptible to bacterial infections (BIs) that are major causes of specific complications and mortality. However, the diagnosis of BIs can often be difficult in advanced disease stage since their symptoms may overlap with the ones of acute decompensation (AD). Soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) is released from monocytes/macrophages and neutrophils during activation and has been reported to correlate with activity of various inflammatory processes. We investigated its diagnostic and prognostic performance in patients with cirrhosis and BI. METHODS Sera of 269 patients were assayed for sTREM-1 by ELISA (172 outpatients and 97 patients with AD of whom 56 had BI). We investigated capacity of sTREM-1 to identify patients with BI and conducted a 90-day follow-up observational study to assess its possible association with short-term mortality. RESULTS sTREM-1 levels were significantly higher in patients with more severe liver disease, BI, and acute-on-chronic liver failure than in patients without these conditions. sTREM-1 had similar accuracy to CRP identifying BI [sTREM-1: AUROC (95%CI) 0.804 (0.711-0.897), p < 0.0001; CRP: 0.791 (0.702-0.881), p < 0.0001)] among AD patients. The combination of these two molecules and the presence of ascites into a composite score significantly increased their discriminative power (AUROC: 0.878, 95%CI: 0.812-0.944, p < 0.0001). High sTREM-1 level (>660 pg/mL) was an independent predictor of 90-day mortality in patients with BI [HR: 2.941, (95%CI: 1.009-8.573), p = 0.048] in our multivariate model. CONCLUSIONS Use of sTREM-1 could increase the recognition of BIs in cirrhosis and help clinicians in mortality risk assessment of these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cells 1 and 2 (TREM-1 and TREM-2) are cell surface receptors important for modulation of microglia immune response. In this study, we evaluate serum levels of TREM-1 and TREM-2 as potential biomarkers in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). MATERIAL AND METHODS Prospective cohort study of 50 patients with AIS admitted at our hospital. Serum TREM-1 and TREM-2 was evaluated within 24 h of the acute event and on the third and fifth days after the stroke. Neurological stroke severity and global disability were determined with the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at the same three times and at the time of hospital discharge. RESULTS TREM-1 and TREM-2 levels were elevated in stroke. TREM-1, but not TREM-2, exhibited correlations with NIHSS and mRS within 24 h (NIHSS and TREM-1: rS = 0.31, p = 0.029; mRS and TREM-1: rS = 0.32, p = 0.023). The serum level of TREM-1 within 24 h correlated with the neurological outcomes at hospital discharge (NIHSS and TREM-1: p = 0.021; mRS and TREM-1: p = 0.049). The serum concentrations of TREM-1 protein within 24 h after stroke was significantly higher in patients with poor outcome (mRS > 2) at hospital discharge (p = 0.021). After Exact Logistic Regression, large segmental stroke (O.R. = 4.14; 95CI = 1.07-16.09; p = 0.040) and initial sTREM levels (O.R. = 1.02; 95CI 1.00-1.04; p = 0.045) remained independent prognostic factors for AIS poor outcome (mRS > 2). CONCLUSION In our study, TREM-1 and TREM-2 were significantly increased in AIS. Early elevation of TREM-1 correlated with stroke severity and it was an independent prognostic factor for stroke outcome.

AIMS Optimal outcome after cardiogenic shock (CS) depends on a coordinated healing response in which both debris removal and extracellular matrix tissue repair play a crucial role. Excessive inflammation can perpetuate a vicious circle, positioning leucocytes as central protagonists and potential therapeutic targets. High levels of circulating Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1), were associated with death in acute myocardial infarction confirming excessive inflammation as determinant of bad outcome. The present study aims to describe the association of soluble TREM-1 with 90-day mortality and with various organ injuries in patients with CS. METHODS AND RESULTS This is a post-hoc study of CardShock, a prospective, multicenter study assessing the clinical presentation and management in patients with CS. At the time of this study, 87 patients had available plasma samples at either baseline, and/or 48 h and/or 96-120 h for soluble TREM-1 (sTREM-1) measurements. Plasma concentration of sTREM-1 was higher in 90-day non-survivors than survivors at baseline [median: 1392 IQR: (724-2128) vs. 621 (525-1233) pg/mL, p = 0.008), 48 h (p = 0.019) and 96-120 h (p = 0.029). The highest tertile of sTREM-1 at baseline (threshold: 1347 pg/mL) was associated with 90-day mortality with an unadjusted HR 3.08 CI 95% (1.48-6.42). sTREM-1 at baseline was not associated to hemodynamic parameters (heart rate, blood pressure, use of vasopressors or inotropes) but rather with organ injury markers: renal (estimated glomerular filtration rate, p = 0.0002), endothelial (bio-adrenomedullin, p = 0.018), myocardial (Suppression of Tumourigenicity 2, p = 0.002) or hepatic (bilirubin, p = 0.008). CONCLUSION In CS patients TREM-1 pathway is highly activated and gives an early prediction of vital organ injuries and outcome.

Abstract
The triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM-1) is an innate immunity receptor associated with the amplification of inflammation in sterile and non-sterile inflammatory disorders. Since its first description, the two isoforms of the receptor, membrane and soluble (mTREM-1 and sTREM-1, respectively) have been largely explored in the immunopathogenesis of several bacterial diseases and sepsis. The role of the receptor in these scenarios seems to be at least partly dependent on the source/type of bacteria, host and context. As uncontrolled inflammation is a result of several bacterial infections, the inhibition of the receptor has been considered as a promising approach to treat such conditions. Further, sTREM-1 has been explored as a biomarker for diagnosis and/or prognosis of several bacterial diseases. Therefore, this review aims to provide an updated insight into how the receptor influences and is influenced by bacterial infections, highlighting the advances regarding the use/manipulation of TREM-1 isoforms in biomedical research and clinical practice.

Abstract
PURPOSE Nangibotide is a specific TREM-1 inhibitor that tempered deleterious host-pathogens interactions, restored vascular function, and improved survival, in animal septic shock models. This study evaluated the safety and pharmacokinetics of nangibotide and its effects on clinical and pharmacodynamic parameters in septic shock patients. METHODS This was a multicenter randomized, double-blind, two-stage study. Patients received either continuous infusion of nangibotide (0.3, 1.0, or 3.0 mg/kg/h) or placebo. Treatment began < 24 h after shock onset and continued for up to 5 days. Safety primary outcomes were adverse events (AEs), whether serious or not, and death. Exploratory endpoints evaluated nangibotide effects on pharmacodynamics, organ function, and mortality, and were analyzed according to baseline sTREM-1 concentrations. RESULTS Forty-nine patients were randomized. All treatment emergent AEs (TEAEs) were collected until Day 28. No significant differences were observed in TEAEs between treatment groups. No drug withdrawal linked to TEAE nor appearance of anti-drug antibodies were reported. Nangibotide pharmacokinetics appeared to be dose-proportional and clearance was dose-independent. Nangibotide did not significantly affect pharmacodynamic markers. Decrease in SOFA score LS mean change (± SE) from baseline to Day 5 in pooled nangibotide groups versus placebo was - 0.7 (± 0.85) in the randomized population and - 1.5 (± 1.12) in patients with high baseline plasma sTREM-1 concentrations (non-significant). This pattern was similar to organ support end points. CONCLUSION No significant increases in TEAEs were detected in nangibotide-treated patients versus placebo. These results encourage further evaluation of nangibotide and further exploration of plasma sTREM-1 concentrations as a predictive efficacy biomarker.

Abstract
Sepsis is defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. In 2017, almost 50 million cases of sepsis were recorded worldwide and 11 million sepsis-related deaths were reported. Therefore, sepsis is the focus of intense research to better understand the complexities of sepsis response, particularly the twin underlying concepts of an initial hyper-immune response and a counter-immunological state of immunosuppression triggered by an invading pathogen. Diagnosis of sepsis remains a significant challenge. Prompt diagnosis is essential so that treatment can be instigated as early as possible to ensure the best outcome, as delay in treatment is associated with higher mortality. In order to address this diagnostic problem, use of a panel of biomarkers has been proposed as, due to the complexity of the sepsis response, no single marker is sufficient. This review provides background on the current understanding of sepsis in terms of its epidemiology, the evolution of the definition of sepsis, pathobiology and diagnosis and management. Candidate biomarkers of interest and how current and developing point-of-care testing approaches could be used to measure such biomarkers is discussed.

Abstract
Fever is one of the leading causes for pediatric medical consultation and the most common symptom at clinical presentation in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Most febrile episodes are due to self-limited infections, but a small proportion of children will develop life-threatening infections. The early recognition of children who have or are progressing to a critical illness among all febrile cases is challenging, and there are currently no objective and quantitative tools to do so. This results in increased morbidity and mortality among children with impending life-threatening infections, whilst contributing to the unnecessary prescription of antibiotics, overwhelming health care facilities, and harm to patients receiving avoidable antimicrobial treatment. Specific fever origin is difficult to ascertain and co-infections in LMICs are common. However, many severe infections share common pathways of host injury irrespective of etiology, including immune and endothelial activation that contribute to the pathobiology of sepsis (i.e., pathogen "agnostic" mechanisms of disease). Importantly, mediators of these pathways are independent markers of disease severity and outcome. We propose that measuring circulating levels of these factors can provide quantitative and objective evidence to: enable early recognition of severe infection; guide patient triage and management; enhance post-discharge risk stratification and follow up; and mitigate potential gender bias in clinical decisions. Here, we review the clinical and biological evidence supporting the clinical utility of host immune and endothelial activation biomarkers as components of novel rapid triage tests, and discuss the challenges and needs for developing and implementing such tools.

Soluble TREM1 concentrations are increased and positively correlated with total tau levels in the plasma of patients with Alzheimer's disease. Aging Clin Exp Res 2019; 31:1801-1805.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Recently, we showed that triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM1) was involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) since it modulated microglial phagocytic functions and thus affected amyloid-β clearance in the brain. Interestingly, a soluble form of TREM1 (sTREM1) can be detected in the plasma of human. To date, whether sTREM1 concentrations were altered in the plasma under AD context remained unclear. METHODS In this study, we compared the plasma concentrations of sTREM1 between 110 AD patients and 128 age- and gender-matched controls. Meanwhile, the relationship of sTREM1 concentrations with total tau levels in the plasma of AD patients was also assessed. RESULTS We revealed that the concentrations of sTREM1 were significantly increased in AD patients. Meanwhile, the sTREM1 concentrations were gradually increased during disease progression. More importantly, we showed that the sTREM1 concentrations were positively correlated with the levels of total tau in the plasma of AD patients (r = 0.61, P < 0.001). The subsequent subgroup analysis indicated that this correlation was more pronounced in patients with severe dementia (Mini-Mental State Exam score < 10, r = 0.81, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION These findings indicate a potential association between sTREM1 and tau pathology, and further confirm an involvement of this immune receptor in AD pathogenesis.

Abstract
Background Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) and 2 (Ang-2), high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), soluble receptor for advanced glycation endproducts (sRAGE), soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (sTREM1), and soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) have shown promising results for predicting all-cause mortality in critical care patients. The aim of our systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess the prognostic value of these biomarkers for mortality in adult patients with sepsis. Methods A systematic literature search of the MEDLINE, PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases, for articles in English published from 01.01.1990 onwards, was conducted. The systematic review focused exclusively on observational studies of adult patients with sepsis, any randomized trials were excluded. For the meta-analysis, only studies which provide biomarker concentrations within 24 h of admission in sepsis survivors and nonsurvivors were included. Results are presented as pooled mean differences (MD) between nonsurvivors and survivors with 95% confidence interval for each of the six biomarkers. Studies not included in the quantitative analysis were narratively summarized. The risk of bias was assessed in all included studies using the Quality in Prognosis Studies (QUIPS) tool. Results The systematic literature search retrieved 2285 articles. In total, we included 44 studies in the qualitative analysis, of which 28 were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled mean differences in biomarker concentration (nonsurvivors − survivors), measured at onset of sepsis, are listed as follows: (1) Ang-1: − 2.9 ng/ml (95% CI − 4.1 to − 1.7, p < 0.01); (2) Ang-2: 4.9 ng/ml (95% CI 2.6 to 7.1, p < 0.01); (3) HMGB1: 1.2 ng/ml (95% CI 0.0 to 2.4, p = 0.05); (4) sRAGE: 1003 pg/ml (95% CI 628 to 1377, p < 0.01); (5) sTREM-1: 87 pg/ml (95% CI 2 to 171, p = 0.04); (6) suPAR: 5.2 ng/ml (95% CI 4.5 to 6.0, p < 0.01). Conclusions Ang-1, Ang-2, and suPAR provide beneficial prognostic information about mortality in adult patients with sepsis. The further development of standardized assays and the assessment of their performance when included in panels with other biomarkers may be recommended. Trial registration This study was recorded on PROSPERO, prospective register of systematic reviews, under the registration ID: CRD42018081226

Abstract
Neuroinflammation is initiated in response to ischemic stroke, generally with the hallmarks of microglial activation and collateral brain injury contributed by robust inflammatory effects. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM)-1, an amplifier of the innate immune response, is a critical regulator of inflammation. This study identified that microglial TREM-1 expression was upregulated following cerebral ischemic injury. After pharmacologic inhibition of TREM-1 with synthetic peptide LP17, ischemia-induced infarction and neuronal injury were substantially alleviated. Moreover, blockade of TREM-1 can potentiate cellular proliferation and synaptic plasticity in hippocampus, resulting in long-term functional improvement. Microglial M1 polarization and neutrophil recruitment were remarkably abrogated as mRNA levels of M1 markers, chemokines, and protein levels of myeloperoxidase and intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) were decreased by LP17. Mechanistically, both in vivo and in vitro, we delineated that TREM-1 can activate downstream pro-inflammatory pathways, CARD9/NF-κB, and NLRP3/caspase-1, through interacting with spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK). In addition, TREM-1-induced SYK initiation was responsible for microglial pyroptosis by elevating levels of gasdermin D (GSDMD), N-terminal fragment of GSDMD (GSDMD-N), and forming GSDMD pores, which can facilitate the release of intracellular inflammatory factors, in microglia. In summary, microglial TREM-1 receptor yielded post-stroke neuroinflammatory damage via associating with SYK.

Abstract
AIMS The peptide nangibotide is the first clinical-stage agent targeting the immunoreceptor TREM-1 (triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1) and is being investigated as a novel therapy for acute inflammatory disorders such as septic shock. This first-in-man, randomized, double-blind, ascending dose, placebo-controlled Phase I study evaluated the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of nangibotide. METHODS Twenty-seven healthy subjects (aged 18-45 years) were randomized into eight groups. Nangibotide was administered as a single continuous intravenous infusion. The first two groups received a single i.v. dose of 1 and 10 mg, respectively, over 15 min. Subsequent groups were randomized in a product : placebo ratio of 3:1 at doses ranging from 0.03 to 6 mg kg-1 h-1 over 7 h 45 min, preceded by a 15-minute loading dose of up to 5 mg kg-1 . RESULTS Nangibotide was safe and well tolerated up to the highest dose tested. There were only few adverse events and they were mild in severity and considered unrelated to treatment. Nangibotide displayed dose-proportional PK properties, with a clearance of 6.6 l kg-1 h-1 for a subject of 70 kg and a 3 min effective half-life, which are compatible with extensive enzymatic metabolism in blood. Central and peripheral volumes of distribution were 16.7 l and 15.9 l respectively, indicating limited distribution of the drug mainly in blood and interstitial fluid. No circulating anti-drug antibodies were detectable up to 28 days after administration. CONCLUSIONS The novel immunomodulator nangibotide displayed favourable safety and PK profiles at all doses, including expected pharmacologically active doses, and warrants further clinical development.

Abstract
Periodontal disease involves the activation of host immune response, acting not only as defender of periodontal tissues against bacterial aggression but also as mediator of tissue destruction. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM-1) is an immune receptor that synergizes with Toll-like receptors in amplifying the inflammatory response mediated by microbial molecules. AIM To investigate the role of P. gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and the effect of LR12, a TREM-1 inhibitory peptide, on the expression of membrane-bound and soluble form of TREM-1 on human primary monocytes, as well as the production of proinflammatory cytokines. MATERIAL AND METHODS Cells were stimulated with 1 μg/ml of LPS with or without LR12. PCR, flow cytometry and ELISA were used to determine TREM-1 expressions and cytokines release by monocytes. RESULTS P. gingivalis LPS can induce a significant increase in TREM-1 expression (mRNA, membrane-bound and soluble form, p < 0.001) as well as cytokines (IL-1β, TNFα) and chemokines (IL-8) production by monocytes. This monocytes' activation was partly prevented by LR12. CONCLUSIONS TREM-1 inhibitors such as LR12 could be interesting for the modulation of the excessive inflammatory response that occurs during periodontal disease.

BACKGROUND Among septic patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), early recognition of those with the highest risk of death is of paramount importance. We evaluated the prognostic value of Procalcitonin (PCT), mid regional-proadrenomedullin (MR-proADM), copeptine and CT-proendothelin 1 (CT-ProET 1) concentrations. METHODS This was a prospective cohort study, which included 173 septic patient admitted to one ICU. Blood samples for biomarker measurements were obtained upon admission and on day 5. The predictive value of each biomarker regarding the risk of death at day 28 was assessed. The fluid balance was evaluated from admission to day 5. RESULTS All cause ICU mortality was 36.4%. All the biomarkers except CT-ProET-1 were significantly more elevated in the non-survivors than in the survivors upon day 1. This was especially true for MR-proADM (8.6 [5.9] vs. 4.4 [3.9] nmol/L; P < 0.0001) and for the CT-proET-1/MR-proADM ratio (52.9 [22.4] vs. 31.3 [26.6] arbitrary units; P < 0.0001). The best AUROCC values on day 1 were obtained with MR-ProADM and the CT-proET-1/MR-proADM ratio as well (0.75 [0.67-0.85] and 0.82 [0.75-0.89]; 95% CI, respectively). An improved accuracy was achieved on day 5. Moreover, MR-ProADM baseline levels and fluid balance over the 5-day period following ICU admission were strongly correlated (Rho = 0.41; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In patients admitted to the ICU with sepsis, MR-ProADM on admission was the best predictor of short-term clinical outcome if compared with others. This could be related to its ability to predict fluid sequestration.

Abstract
Objective: Increased inflammation is considered as a risk factor and a promoter of preterm birth (PTB). Monocytes and neutrophils are the main sources of cytokines in the early inflammatory phase. So far, very few studies have indicated CD14/TLR4 and TREM-1 on the monocytes and neutrophils as important targets in PTB. Materials and methods: TLR4 and TREM-1 on CD14+ maternal and cord blood monocytes and neutrophils were detected using flow cytometry in 48 normal term women, 48 PTB with chorioamnionitis (CCA) women, and 40 PTB without CCA women. In the fetal membranes, mRNA and protein levels of the CD14/TLR4-TREM-1 signaling pathway, CD14, TLR4, NF-κBp65, and TREM-1 were analyzed by qRT-PCR and western blot. ELISA was further used to detect TLR4 and TREM-1 levels in maternal and cord serums. Results: Compared with the normal term and PTB without CCA women, we found that (1) TLR4 and TREM-1 levels on CD14+ maternal and cord blood monocytes and neutrophils in the PTB with CCA group were elevated (p < .001); (2) the protein and mRNA expressions of CA14, TLR4, NF-κBp65, and TREM-1 of the PTB with CCA group were upregulated (p < .001); (3) Maternal and cord serum concentrations of TLR4 and TREM-1 in the PTB with CCA group were greater (p < .001). Conclusions: The high levels of TLR4 and TREM-1 surface expression were observed on CD14+ maternal and cord blood monocyte and neutrophils, confirming their proinflammatory profiles in PTB with CCA. TLR4 and TREM-1 on monocyte and neutrophils might have a role in infection-related PTB.

Abstract
Background: Major abdominal surgery, including colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery, leads to systemic inflammatory response syndrome that can be detected and monitored with inflammatory markers testing. The aims of the study were to evaluate the usefulness of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), procalcitonin (PCT), and C-reactive protein (CRP) in following the inflammatory response in CRC surgery and postoperative period, as well as to determine if duration of the surgery and the time that the colon has been opened during the surgery (open colon time [OCT]) reflect a larger surgical stress through inflammatory markers rise. Methods: The study included 20 patients who underwent CRC surgery and 19 healthy volunteers from June 2011 to September 2012. We determined inflammatory markers 1 day before surgery (T0), 24 h (T1), 48 h (T2), and 7 days after the surgery (T3). All statistical analyses were calculated using MedCalc Statistical Software version 14.8.1 (MedCalc Software bvba, Ostend, Belgium). Results: Concentrations of CRP, PCT, and IL-6 in all measurement times were statistically different and sTREM-1 did not yield statistical significance. A weak positive correlation was found between IL-6 in T1 and T2 with the duration of the surgery (T1: r = 0.4060, P < 0.0001; T2: r = 0.3430, P < 0.0001) and OCT (T1: r = 0.3640, P < 0.0001, T2: r = 0.3430, P < 0.0001). A weak positive correlation between CRP in T2 and OCT (r = 0.4210, P < 0.0001) was also found. The interconnectivity of tested parameters showed a weak positive correlation between CRP and IL-6 in T1 (r = 0.3680; P < 0.0001), moderate positive correlation in T2 (r = 0.6770; P < 0.0001), and a strong positive correlation in T3 (r = 0.8651; P < 0.0001). Conclusions: CRP, IL-6, and PCT were shown to be reliable for postoperative monitoring. Simultaneous determination of CRP and IL-6 might not be useful as they follow similar kinetics. sTREM-1 might not be useful in CRC postoperative monitoring.
