Anandamide absorption by direct hemoperfusion with polymixin B-immobilized fiber improves the prognosis and organ failure assessment score in patients with sepsis

Abstract: ANA, an intrinsic cannabinoid that induces hypotension in septic shock, is inferred to be the main mechanism of the PMX-DHP effect. Removal of ANA by PMX-DHP could be key to successful septic shock treatment.

“…Based on these findings, we hypothesized that other mechanisms play an important role. Some reports revealed that PMX-DHP efficiently eliminates endocannabinoids, including monocyte-derived anandamide and platelet-derived 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) from the circulating blood, because PMX adsorbs these agents effectively [15,16]. Since endocannabinoids are known to induce reactions during septic shock [17], removal of endocannabinoids could be another possible mechanism.…”

“…Reduced levels of a number of other mediators have been reported after PMX. The list includes IL-6 [12,13,14], IL-10 [13,14], IL-18 [15], TNF-α [14,16], metalloproteinase-9 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 [7], plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 [14,16,17], neutrophil elastase [9,18], platelet factor-4 [15], β-thromboglobulin [15], soluble P selectin [15] and endogenous cannabinoids [15,19] such as anandamide. Several of these mediators cause lung injury, increase vascular permeability and worsen intrapulmonary shunting.…”

“…It is said that endogenous cannabinoids involved in the regulation of cytokine production are directly removed by PMX-DHP leading to an improvement of hemodynamics 27,29 , but the cytokine cannot be removed by PMX-DHP directly 30 .…”
