Abstract

Sepsis is a life-threatening disease mediated by profound disturbances in systemic inflammatory response to infection. IL-33 is multifunctional regulator of numerous aspects of innate and adaptive immune response. The aim of this article was to further evaluate the role of IL-33 receptor (ST2) in different pathways of innate immunity during early polymicrobial sepsis. Polymicrobial sepsis was induced using cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) model in ST2 deficient (ST2-/-) and wild type BALB/c mice. Peritoneal and spleen cells were isolated for further phenotyping. Apoptosis was determined by immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry. Deletion of ST2 leads to increased susceptibility to early manifestations of sepsis as evaluated by clinical signs and survival. These are accompanied by decrease in the total number of neutrophils, eosinophils and mast cells in peritoneal cavity 12 h after CLP. In early sepsis there was also low number of precursors of myeloid cells in particular CD11b+Ly6G+Ly6Clow cells in spleen of ST2-/- mice. Although the number of NK cells in the spleen was similar, there were significant differences in the presence of inflammatory IFN-γ and IL-17 producing NK cells. Further, ST2 deletion affects the phenotype and maturation of dendritic cell in sepsis. The total number of dendritic cells in the spleen was lower as well as IL-12 expressing dendritic cells. Finally, there was higher frequency of active caspase-3 positive and early apoptotic cells, in particular CD11c positive cells, in spleen of septic ST2-/- mice. Taken together, our data provide the evidence that ST2 deficiency in early phase of sepsis downregulates myeloid precursors, inflammatory NK and dendritic cells.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 July 2018.
All research outputs
#20,663,600
of 25,385,509 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Biomedical Science
#871
of 1,101 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#264,401
of 339,415 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Biomedical Science
#7
of 11 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,385,509 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,101 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 11.1. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 339,415 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 11 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
