Cigarette smoke exposure reduces hemorrhagic shock induced circulatory dysfunction in mice with attenuated glucocorticoid receptor function. Front Immunol 2022; 13:980707.

Abstract
IntroductionWe previously showed that attenuated glucocorticoid receptor (GR) function in mice (GRdim/dim) aggravates systemic hypotension and impairs organ function during endotoxic shock. Hemorrhagic shock (HS) causes impaired organ perfusion, which leads to tissue hypoxia and inflammation with risk of organ failure. Lung co-morbidities like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) can aggravate tissue hypoxia via alveolar hypoxia. The most common cause for COPD is cigarette smoke (CS) exposure. Therefore, we hypothesized that affecting GR function in mice (GRdim/dim) and pre-traumatic CS exposure would further impair hemodynamic stability and organ function after HS.MethodsAfter 3 weeks of CS exposure, anesthetized and mechanically ventilated GRdim/dim and GR+/+ mice underwent pressure-controlled HS for 1h via blood withdrawal (mean arterial pressure (MAP) 35mmHg), followed by 4h of resuscitation with re-transfusion of shed blood, colloid fluid infusion and, if necessary, continuous intravenous norepinephrine. Acid–base status and organ function were assessed together with metabolic pathways. Blood and organs were collected at the end of the experiment for analysis of cytokines, corticosterone level, and mitochondrial respiratory capacity. Data is presented as median and interquartile range.ResultsNor CS exposure neither attenuated GR function affected survival. Non-CS GRdim/dim mice had a higher need of norepinephrine to keep target hemodynamics compared to GR+/+ mice. In contrast, after CS exposure norepinephrine need did not differ significantly between GRdim/dim and GR+/+ mice. Non-CS GRdim/dim mice presented with a lower pH and increased blood lactate levels compared to GR+/+ mice, but not CS exposed mice. Also, higher plasma concentrations of some pro-inflammatory cytokines were observed in non-CS GRdim/dim compared to GR+/+ mice, but not in the CS group. With regards to metabolic measurements, CS exposure led to an increased lipolysis in GRdim/dim compared to GR+/+ mice, but not in non-CS exposed animals.ConclusionWhether less metabolic acidosis or increased lipolysis is the reason or the consequence for the trend towards lower catecholamine need in CS exposed GRdim/dim mice warrants further investigation.

Effects of Sodium Thiosulfate During Resuscitation From Trauma-and-Hemorrhage in Cystathionine-γ-Lyase Knockout Mice With Diabetes Type 1. Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:878823. [PMID: 35572988 PMCID: PMC9106371 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.878823] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2022] [Accepted: 04/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Sodium thiosulfate (STS) is a recognized drug with antioxidant and H2S releasing properties. We recently showed that STS attenuated organ dysfunction and injury during resuscitation from trauma-and-hemorrhage in CSE-ko mice, confirming its previously described organ-protective and anti-inflammatory properties. The role of H2S in diabetes mellitus type 1 (DMT1) is controversial: genetic DMT1 impairs H2S biosynthesis, which has been referred to contribute to endothelial dysfunction and cardiomyopathy. In contrast, development and severity of hyperglycemia in streptozotocin(STZ)-induced DMT1 was attenuated in CSE-ko mice. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis whether STS would also exert organ-protective effects in CSE-ko mice with STZ-induced DMT1, similar to our findings in animals without underlying co-morbidity. Methods Under short-term anesthesia with sevoflurane and analgesia with buprenorphine CSE-ko mice underwent DMT1-induction by single STZ injection (100 μg⋅g-1). Seven days later, animals underwent blast wave-induced blunt chest trauma and surgical instrumentation followed by 1 h of hemorrhagic shock (MAP 35 ± 5 mmHg). Resuscitation comprised re-transfusion of shed blood, lung-protective mechanical ventilation, fluid resuscitation and continuous i.v. norepinephrine together with either i.v. STS (0.45 mg⋅g-1) or vehicle (n = 9 in each group). Lung mechanics, hemodynamics, gas exchange, acid-base status, stable isotope-based metabolism, and visceral organ function were assessed. Blood and organs were collected for analysis of cytokines, chemokines, and immunoblotting. Results Diabetes mellitus type 1 was associated with more severe circulatory shock when compared to our previous study using the same experimental design in CSE-ko mice without co-morbidity. STS did not exert any beneficial therapeutic effect. Most of the parameters measured of the inflammatory response nor the tissue expression of marker proteins of the stress response were affected either. Conclusion In contrast to our previous findings in CSE-ko mice without underlying co-morbidity, STS did not exert any beneficial therapeutic effect in mice with STZ-induced DMT1, possibly due to DMT1-related more severe circulatory shock. This result highlights the translational importance of both integrating standard ICU procedures and investigating underlying co-morbidity in animal models of shock research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3) is a clinically established drug with antioxidant and sulphide-releasing properties. Na2S2O3 mediated neuro- and cardioprotective effects in ischemia/reperfusion models and anti-inflammatory effects in LPS-induced acute lung injury. Moreover, Na2S2O3 improved lung function during resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock in swine with pre-existing atherosclerosis, characterized by decreased expression of cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE), a major source of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) synthesis in the vasculature. Based on these findings, we investigated the effects of Na2S2O3 administration during resuscitation from trauma-and-hemorrhage in mice under conditions of whole body CSE deficit. METHODS After blast wave-induced blunt chest trauma and surgical instrumentation, CSE knockout (CSE-/-) mice underwent 1 h of hemorrhagic shock (MAP 35 ± 5 mm Hg). At the beginning of resuscitation comprising retransfusion, norepinephrine support and lung-protective mechanical ventilation, animals received either i.v. Na2S2O3 (0.45 mg g-1, n = 12) or vehicle (saline, n = 13). Hemodynamics, acid-base status, metabolism using stable isotopes, and visceral organ function were assessed. Blood and organs were collected for analysis of cytokines, mitochondrial respiratory capacity, and immunoblotting. RESULTS Na2S2O3 treatment improved arterial paO2 (P = 0.03) coinciding with higher lung tissue glucocorticoid receptor expression. Norepinephrine requirements were lower in the Na2S2O3 group (P < 0.05), which was associated with lower endogenous glucose production and higher urine output. Na2S2O3 significantly increased renal tissue IκBα and heme oxygenase-1 expression, whereas it lowered kidney IL-6 and MCP-1 levels. CONCLUSION Na2S2O3 exerted beneficial effects during resuscitation of murine trauma-and-hemorrhage in CSE-/- mice, confirming and extending the previously described organ-protective and anti-inflammatory properties of Na2S2O3. The findings make Na2S2O3 a potentially promising therapeutic option in the context of impaired CSE activity and/or reduced endogenous H2S availability.

Abstract
In studies that target specific functions or organs, the response is often overlaid by indirect effects of the intervention on global metabolism. The metabolic side of these interactions can be assessed based on total energy expenditure (TEE) and the contributions of the principal energy sources, carbohydrates, proteins and fat to whole body CO2 production. These parameters can be identified from indirect calorimetry using respiratory oxygen intake and CO2 dioxide production data that are combined with the response of the 13CO2 release in the expired air and the glucose tracer enrichment in plasma following a 13C glucose stable isotope infusion. This concept is applied to a mouse protocol involving anesthesia, mechanical respiration, a disease model, like hemorrhage and therapeutic intervention. It faces challenges caused by a small sample size for both breath and plasma as well as changes in metabolic parameters caused by disease and intervention. Key parameters are derived from multiple measurements, all afflicted with errors that may accumulate leading to unrealistic values. To cope with these challenges, a sensitive on-line breath analysis system based on substrate-integrated hollow waveguide infrared spectroscopy and luminescence (iHWG-IR-LS) was used to monitor gas exchange values. A Bayesian statistical model is developed that uses established equations for indirect calorimetry to predict values for respiratory gas exchange and tracer data that are consistent with the corresponding measurements and also provides statistical error bands for these parameters. With this new methodology, it was possible to estimate important metabolic parameters (respiratory quotient (RQ), relative contribution of carbohydrate, protein and fat oxidation fcarb, ffat and fprot , total energy expenditure TEE) in a resolution never available before for a minimal invasive protocol of mice under anesthesia.

Abstract
Stress, primarily processed via the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, engages biological pathways throughout the brain and body which promote adaptation and survival to changing environmental demands. Adaptation to environmental challenges is compromised when these pathways are no longer functioning optimally. The physiological and behavioral mechanisms through which HPA axis function influences stress adaptation and resilience are not fully elucidated. Our understanding of stress biology and disease must take into account the complex interactions between the endocrine system, neural circuits, and behavioral coping strategies. In addition, further consideration must be taken concerning influences of other aspects of physiology, including the circadian clock which is critical for regulation of daily changes in HPA activity. While adding a layer of complexity, it also offers targets for intervention. Understanding the role of HPA function in mediating these diverse biological responses will lead to important insights about how to bolster successful stress adaptation and promote stress resilience.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the effect of mesenteric lymph drainage on the spleen injury and the expressions of inflammatory cytokines in splenic tissue in mice following hemorrhagic shock. METHODS Male C57 mice were randomly divided into the sham shock, shock and shock+drainage groups. The mice in both shock and shock+drainage groups suffered femoral artery bleeding, maintained mean arterial pressure (MAP) of 40±2 mmHg for 90 min, and were resuscitated. And mesenteric lymph drainage was performed in the shock+drainage group at the time of resuscitation. After three hours of resuscitation, the splenic tissues were harvested for the histological observation and protein and mRNA expression analysis of cytokines. RESULTS The spleen in the shock group revealed a significantly structural damage and increased mRNA expressions of MyD88 and TRAF6 and protein expressions of TIPE2, MyD88, TRIF and TRAF3 compared to the sham group. By contrast, the splenic pathological injury in the shock+drainage group was alleviated significantly, and the mRNA and protein expressions of TIPE2, MyD88, TRIF, TRAF3 and TRAF6 were significantly lower than those in the shock group. CONCLUSION These results indicate that post-hemorrhagic shock mesenteric lymph drainage alleviates hemorrhagic shock-induced spleen injury and the expressions of inflammatory cytokines.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of ulinastatin on the inflammatory mediators and their signaling pathways miR-146a/TLR4/NF-κB in rats with hemorrhagic shock. METHODS Seventy-two SD rats were randomly assigned into shock without resuscitation group (SR group, n=24), acetated Ringer's solution resuscitation group (AR group, n=24) and ulinastatin treatment group (n=24). In all the 3 groups hemorrhagic shock models were established by femoral artery bleeding (with the mean arterial pressure maintained at 30-40 mmHg) without resuscitation (in SR group) or with resuscitation (in AR and ulinastatin groups) using acetated Ringer's solution for 30 min at 60 min after the onset of shock. At 1, 4, and 6 h after the shock onset or immediately after shock if the rats died, the lung tissues were taken for measurement of mRNA expressions of miR-146a, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1 (IL-1), IL-4, IL-6 and IL-10 using real-time quantitative PCR and the protein expressions of TLR4, MyD88, IκB-α, p-IκB-α, NF-κB p65, IRAK4, p-IRAK4 (Thr345, Ser346), p-IRAK4 (Thr342) and TRAF6 using Western blotting. The lung histopathology of the rats was examined under optical microscope with HE staining. RESULTS Compared with the SR group, the rats in the AR group showed slightly alleviated inflammatory infiltration in the lung tissues with significantly increased mRNA levels of miR-146a, IL-4 and IL-10 (P < 0.05) and protein expressions of IκB-α, p-IRAK4 (Thr342) and p-IRAK4 (Thr345, ser346) (P < 0.05), and decreased mRNA levels of TNF-α, IL-1 and IL-6 (P < 0.05) and protein expressions of TLR4, MyD88, NF-κB p65, p-IκB-α, IRAK-4 and TRAF6 (P < 0.05). Compared with those in AR group, the rats in ulinastatin group showed further alleviation of inflammatory lung tissue injury, with increased mRNA levels of miR-146a, IL-4 and IL-10 (P < 0.01) and protein expressions of IκB-α, p-IRAK4 and p-IRAK4 (P < 0.01) and decreased mRNA levels of TNF-α, IL-1 and IL-6 (P < 0.01) and protein expressions of TLR4, MyD88, NF-κB p65, p-IκB-α, IRAK-4 and TRAF6 (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Ulinastatin combined with acetated Ringer's solution resuscitation alleviates lung inflammations in rats with hemorrhagic shock possibly by enhancing miR-146a expression to regulate TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway through a negative feedback mechanism and thus modulate the balance of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory factors.

Abstract
Animal experiments are widely used in preclinical medical research with the goal of disease modeling and exploration of novel therapeutic approaches. In the context of sepsis and septic shock, the translation into clinical practice has been disappointing. Classical animal models of septic shock usually involve one-sex-one-age animal models, mostly in mice or rats, contrasting with the heterogeneous population of septic shock patients. Many other factors limit the reliability of preclinical models and may contribute to preclinical research failure in critical care, including the host specificity of several pathogens, the fact that laboratory animals are raised in pathogen-free facilities and that organ support techniques are either absent or minimal. Advanced animal models have been developed with the aim of improving the clinical translatability of experimental findings. So-called animal ICUs refer to the preclinical investigation of adult or even aged animals of either sex, using—in case of rats and mice—miniaturized equipment allowing for reproducing an ICU environment at a small animal scale and integrating chronic comorbidities to more closely reflect the clinical conditions studied. Strength and limitations of preclinical animal models designed to decipher the mechanisms involved in septic cardiomyopathy are discussed. This article reviews the current status and the challenges of setting up an animal ICU.
