Monitoring the immune response in sepsis: a rational approach to administration of immunoadjuvant therapies

Abstract: Preliminary studies suggest that a subgroup of septic patients with severe immune alterations is at high risk of death or nosocomial infection and therefore could benefit from adjunctive immune stimulating therapies. There is thus an urgent need for robust biomarkers usable in routine conditions evaluating rapidly evolving immune status in patients. Although functional testing remains a gold standard, its standardisation remains challenging. Therefore, surrogate markers such as monocyte HLA-DR expression, are … Show more

“…Most importantly, results from whole blood LPS stimulation studies showed an increased release of IL-10 and a decreased release of IL-6 and TNF-a in a subgroup of patients. All of these parameters (including functional testing) are established features of injury-induced immunosuppression [2,3]. This finding is particularly important because it contrasts sharply with the prevailing theory of immune dysfunction following trauma and with the results of a recent study in trauma patients which examined gene expression in circulating whole blood [4].…”

“…Il est maintenant admis que l'ensemble des fonctions immunitaires sont profondément altérées. Plusieurs mécanismes opèrent de concert : production massive d'IL-10 (médiateur puissamment immunosuppresseur), phéno-mène de tolérance à l'endotoxine, régulation épigénétique et déclen-chement de processus apoptotiques de grande ampleur [2,5,6]. Les conséquences sont systémiques (sang circulant, rate, poumons) et affectent les deux bras de la réponse immunitaire.…”

“…En premier lieu, la réponse innée est atteinte. Différentes anomalies sont documentées : diminution de la phagocytose et de la bactéricidie (monocytes, polynucléaires neutrophiles), diminution du chimiotactisme (monocytes, polynucléaires neutrophiles), déficit de production des cytokines proinflammatoires en réponse à une re-stimulation bactérienne (phéno-mène de tolérance à l'endotoxine), diminution du nombre de cellules dendritiques circulantes, et altération de la présentation de l'antigène par les cellules présentatrices d'antigènes du fait de la diminution, voire de la disparition, des molécules HLA-DR (human leukocyte antigen-DR, complexe majeur d'histocompatibilité de classe II) à la surface de ces cellules [5,6].…”
