Abstract Background Understanding the mechanisms underlying immune dysregulation in sepsis is a major challenge in developing more individualized therapy, as early and persistent inflammation, as well as immunosuppression, play a significant role in pathophysiology. As part of the antimicrobial response, neutrophils can release extracellular traps (NETs) which neutralize and kill microorganisms. However, excessive NETs formation may also contribute to pathogenesis, tissue damage and organ dysfunction. Recently, a novel automated assay has been proposed for the routine measurement of nucleosomes H3.1 (fundamental units of chromatin) that are released during NETs formation. The aim of the present study was to measure nucleosome levels in 151 septic shock patients (according to sepsis-3 definition) and to determine association with mortality. Results The nucleosome H3.1 levels (as determined by a chemiluminescence immunoassay performed on an automated immunoanalyzer system) were markedly and significantly elevated at all-time points in septic shock patients compared to the control group. Immunological parameters indicated tremendous early inflammation (IL-6 = 1335 pg/mL at day 1–2) along with marked immunosuppression (e.g., mHLA-DR = 3853 AB/C and CD4 = 338 cell /µL at day 3–4). We found significantly positive correlation between nucleosome levels and organ failure and severity scores, IL-6 concentrations and neutrophil count. Significantly higher values (day 1–2 and 3–4) were measured in non-survivor patients (28-day mortality). This association was still significant after multivariate analysis and was more pronounced with highest concentration. Early (day 1–2) increased nucleosome levels were also independently associated with 5-day mortality. At day 6–8, persistent elevated nucleosome levels were negatively correlated to mHLA-DR values. Conclusions This study reports a significant elevation of nucleosome in patients during a one-week follow-up. The nucleosome levels showed correlation with neutrophil count, IL-6 and were found to be independently associated with mortality assessed at day 5 or 28. Therefore, nucleosome concentration seems to be a promising biomarker for detecting hyper-inflammatory phenotype upon a patient's admission. Additional investigations are required to evaluate the potential association between sustained elevation of nucleosome and sepsis-induced immunosuppression. |
