Predictive Value of Monocyte Histocompatibility Leukocyte Antigen-DR Expression and Plasma Interleukin-4 and -10 Levels in Critically Ill Patients With Sepsis

Abstract: It has been suggested that excessive activation of the anti-inflammatory pathways in sepsis may lead to poor outcome of patients with sepsis. The aim of this study was to test the value of histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR-expression on blood monocytes and plasma levels of interleukin (IL)-4 and -10 in prediction of hospital mortality in patients with sepsis. Sixty-one critically ill patients with sepsis were prospectively enrolled to this study in two university hospital intensive care units. Surv… Show more

“…Some authors found that low monocyte HLA-DR expression is a useful indicator of sepsis and its outcome [23] , but others support our results and found no association between HLA-DR expression and mortality [15,21] .…”

“…Current knowledge concerning the role of OS and HLA-DR expression in sepsis remains unresolved. Although some studies found a correlation between OS and outcome [8,21] , these results are contested by others. Perianayagam et al [22] evaluated a cohort of 200 patients with AKI and found that the incidence of sepsis was not significantly different according to the various levels of NADPH oxidase, another OS marker.…”

“…In clinical studies, the magnitude and the persistent nature of this refractory state are associated with increased mortality. Two major consequences of endotoxin tolerance on monocytes are an increase in the release of immunosuppressive mediators, such as IL‐10, and a decrease in antigen presentation as a result of the reduced expression of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)‐DR; both are associated with a worse outcome of sepsis 20, 21. The continued release of IL‐10 might contribute to sepsis‐induced immunosuppression and thus might augment the susceptibility to secondary microbial infections 22.…”

“…Reduced monocyte expression of the HLA class II DR molecule characterizes patients with septic shock with a poor prognosis, while recovery to normal is seen in those who survive. [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] The profound reduction in HLA-DR expression and a reduced ability in vitro to produce TNF-␣ following lipopolysaacharide stimulation is reflected in the fact that patients with septic shock usually succumb to repeated bacterial and opportunistic infections. 21 Recently, reduced monocyte HLA-DR expression has been reported in patients with septic decompensation of acute-on-chronic liver failure.…”
