Project description:Background: Sepsis can lead to multiple organ damage, and the heart is one of the most vulnerable organs. Vagal nerve stimulation can reduce myocardial injury in sepsis and improve survival rate. However, the relative effect of disparate cell populations on sepsis induced myocardial dysfunction and the low-level tragus stimulation on it, remain unclear. Methods: We used the cardiac single-cell transcriptomic strategy to characterize the cardiac cell population and the network of cells that forms the heart. And we selected all cardiac macrophage from CD45+ cells using single-cell mRNA sequencing data. Then we used echocardiography performing, western blot and immunofluorescence and immunohistochemical technology to verify the data of the single-cell mRNA sequencing results. Results: In single-cell mRNA sequencing data, our analysis provides a comprehensive map of the cardiac cellular landscape uncovering multiple cell populations that contribute to sepsis induced myocardial dysfunction under low-level tragus stimulation. Pseudo timing analysis in single-cell sequencing showed that low level vagal nerve stimulation could induce the transformation of cardiac monocytes into M2 macrophages and play an anti-inflammatory role. After low-level tragus stimulation, the expression of α7nAChR in the heart tissue increased significantly. Echocardiography showed that low-level tragus stimulation could improve the cardiac function of septic myocardial injury of the mice. Comparing with the sepsis group, the expression of interleukin-1β in heart tissue of the mice in sepsis with low-level tragus stimulation group is significantly lower. Conclusion: Low-level tragus stimulation can improve sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction by promoting cardiac monocytes to M2 macrophages. Goal of the study: In the present study, we aimed to screen macrophages, their crosstalk with other cells, and macrophages associated with cardiac injury and further verify their origins and roles in the septic myocardial injury process and low-level tragus stimulation (LL-TS) to treat septic myocardial dysfunction.

Project description:Background: Sepsis involves aberrant immune responses to infection, but the exact nature of this immune dysfunction remains poorly defined. Bacterial endotoxins like lipopolysaccharide (LPS) are potent inducers of inflammation, which has been associated with the pathophysiology of sepsis, but repeated exposure can also induce a suppressive effect known as endotoxin tolerance or cellular reprogramming. It has been proposed that endotoxin tolerance might be associated with the immunosuppressive state that was primarily observed during late-stage sepsis. However, this relationship remains poorly characterised. Here we clarify the underlying mechanisms and timing of immune dysfunction in sepsis. Methods: We defined a gene expression signature characteristic of endotoxin tolerance. Gene-set test approaches were used to correlate this signature with early sepsis, both newly and retrospectively analysing microarrays from 593 patients in 11 cohorts. Then we recruited a unique cohort of possible sepsis patients at first clinical presentation in an independent blinded controlled observational study to determine whether this signature was associated with the development of confirmed sepsis and organ dysfunction. Findings: All sepsis patients presented an expression profile strongly associated with the endotoxin tolerance signature (p < 0.01; AUC 96.1%). Importantly, this signature further differentiated between suspected sepsis patients who did, or did not, go on to develop confirmed sepsis, and predicted the development of organ dysfunction. Interpretation: Our data support an updated model of sepsis pathogenesis in which endotoxin tolerance-mediated immune dysfunction (cellular reprogramming) is present throughout the clinical course of disease and related to disease severity. Thus endotoxin tolerance might offer new insights guiding the development of new therapies and diagnostics for early sepsis. For the RNA-Seq study reported here, 73 patients were recruited with deferred consent at the time of first examination in an emergency ward based on the opinion of physicians that there was a potential for the patient's condition to develop into sepsis. These were retrospectively divided into groups based on clinical features and compared to 11 non-urgent surgical controls.
