Emergence of autoantibodies to HMGB1 is associated with survival in patients with septic shock

Abstract: This study shows that autoantibodies to HMGB1 are produced during sepsis and are associated with a favorable outcome in patients undergoing septic shock.

“…Although HMGB1 was initially described as a nuclear protein with important regulatory functions associated with gene expression (1), more recent studies have shown that HMGB1 has potent proinflammatory actions and can be classified as a danger-associated molecular pattern mediator. Although therapeutic approaches aimed at blocking cellular release of HMGB1 or inhibiting the actions of extracellular HMGB1 are of benefit in diminishing tissue injury and organ dysfunction in acute and chronic inflammatory conditions, such as hemorrhage, sepsis, and rheumatoid arthritis, there is also reason to believe that HMGB1 plays a beneficial role in microbial eradication, not only through its proinflammatory actions, but also by modulating neutrophil chemotaxis (1,4,5,20,39). Our present findings, showing that HMGB1 can potentiate NET formation, suggest a novel mechanism by which HMGB1 may enhance host defense to bacterial infection and contribute to inflammatory processes.…”

“…Plasma and tissue levels of HMGB1 are elevated in acute inflammatory conditions, such as during severe infection, burns, hemorrhage, and lung injury (1,4,20). Increased circulating concentrations of HMGB1 are also associated with chronic inflammatory disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus.…”

This issue has gradually been overcome with mandatory antioxidant vaccination programs [19] and the correction of mitochondrial damage on location by emergency medical services [20], allowing intensive care medicine to focus on supportive care rather than late "metabolic and immune damage control".…”
