Objective: To study the sepsis markers informativeness to assess the role of monocytes in the pathogenesis of generalized peritonitis (GP). Methods: The study included 160 patients with GP, who were divided into 3 groups, according to the stages of the disease. To establish the activity of monocytes was made a determination of the level of cytokine TNF-α and presepsin in the blood. Results: Studies showed that the level of TNF-α in patient with septic shock was reliably lower (24.5±13.3 pg/ml) than in patients with endogenous intoxication and abdominal sepsis. The value of TNF-α in deceased patients also was low – 4.8±0.9 pg/ml. This indicates a decrease in the ability of monocytes in GP at the stage of septic shock to exude a sufficient amount of pro-inflammatory cytokines in response to endotoxin aggression. The level of presepsin increased by stages and amounted to 355.6±8.6, 783.4±24.0 and 1587.7±70.5 pg/ml, respectively. This indicates the circulation in the blood of the CD14 receptor, which is able to express on monocytes, converting them into endothelial progenitor cells. Conclusions: Monocytes as endothelial progenitor cells contribute to the regeneration and restoration of endothelial function in its dysfunction that develops in GP and abdominal sepsis. In consequence of developing immunosuppression and suppression of monocyte function in the stage of septic shock, the process of renewal of endothelial cells is weakened, the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, in particular TNF-α, decreases, which can contribute to an increase in mortality in septic shock. Keywords: Monocytes, abdominal sepsis, septic shock, endothelial dysfunction, progenitor cells.

Abstract Background Type 1 diabetes (T1DM) is associated with premature cardiovascular disease (CVD) and a pro-inflammatory state whilst the proangiogenic miR-126-3p/-5p may play a role in CVD. Animal studies established miR-126 to be pro-angiogenic. We hypothesised miR-126-3p/-5p are reduced in T1DM whilst pro-inflammatory cytokines are increased. Methods 29 well controlled, T1DM patients without CVD and 20 healthy controls (HCs) were studied. MiR-126-3p/-5p were assayed in plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) whilst Chemokine C-X-C Receptor 1/2 (CXCR1/2) mRNA in PBMCs by real-time quantitative PCR. Cytokines were assayed by the Mesoscale Discovery. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) was used to predict target genes, cellular functions and pathological states regulated by miR-126-3p/-5p. IPA generated both direct and indirect causations between different targets and analysed whether these effects would be inhibitory or stimulatory based on the published evidence. Results T1DM patients had a relatively good diabetic control (HbA1c = 7.4 ± 0.7% or 57.3 ± 7.6 mmol/mol). Homeostatic cytokine IL-7, pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-8 and TNF-α, and vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) were increased in T1DM, versus HCs; p = 0.008, p = 0.003, p = 0.041 and p = 0.013 respectively. MiR-126-5p was significantly upregulated in PBMCs in T1DM versus HCs; p = 0.01, but not in plasma. MiR-126-3p was unchanged. CXCR1/2 were elevated in T1DM versus HCs; p = 0.009 and p < 0.001 respectively. MiR-126-5p was positively correlated with CXCR1/2, and with HbA1c whilst negatively correlated with circulating endothelial progenitor cells (CD34+CD133+CD45dim) and fibronectin adhesion assay in a combined group of T1DM patients and HCs; p = 0.028 p = 0.049 p = 0.035 p = 0.047 and p = 0.004 respectively. IPA predicted miR-126-5p to be anti-inflammatory through the inhibition of chemokine C–C motif ligand 27, chymotrypsin-like elastase 2A and IL-7, whilst miR-126-3p had no direct anti-inflammatory effect. Simultaneously IPA predicted IL-7 as the most upstream cytokine target. Conclusions T1DM without apparent CVD or diabetic complications is an inflammatory state characterised not only by raised pro-inflammatory cytokines but also by increased receptor CXCR1/2 and miR-126-5p. MiR-126-5p upregulation may represent a compensatory response. Pro-miR-126-5p therapies or anti-IL-7 therapies may be a new option to reduce both inflammation and CVD risk in T1DM. Further research is required in a large prospective study in patients with T1DM.

Background:Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is one of the most significant comorbidities of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), increasing the mortality in these patients [1,2]. Although the pathogenesis of ILD associated to RA (RA-ILD+) remains poorly defined [1], it is known that vascular tissue plays a crucial role in lung physiology [3]. In this context, a population of cells termed endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) are involved in vasculogenesis and endothelial tissue repair [4]. Previous reports suggest the implication of EPC in different conditions such as RA and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), the most common and destructive ILD [5,6]. Nevertheless, little is known about their specific role in RA-ILD+.Objectives:The purpose of this study was to shed light on the potential role of EPC in endothelial damage in RA-ILD+.Methods:Peripheral venous blood was collected from a total of 68 individuals (18 with RA-ILD+, 17 with RA-ILD-, 19 with IPF and 14 healthy controls). All subjects were recruited from the Rheumatology and Pneumology departments of Hospital Universitario Marqués de Valdecilla, Santander, Spain. Quantification of EPC was analyzed by the expression of surface antigens by flow cytometry. The combination of antibodies against the stem cell marker CD34, the immature progenitor marker CD133, the endothelial marker VEGF receptor 2 (CD309) and the common leukocyte antigen CD45 was used. EPC were considered as CD34+, CD45Low, CD309+and CD133+. All statistical analyses were performed using Prism software 5 (GraphPad).Results:EPC frequency was significantly increased in patients with RA-ILD+, RA-ILD-and IPF compared to controls (p=0.001, p=0.002, p< 0.0001, respectively). Nevertheless, patients with RA, both RA-ILD+and RA-ILD-, showed a lower frequency of EPC than those with IPF (p= 0.048, p= 0.006, respectively).Conclusion:Our results provide evidence for a potential role of EPC as a reparative compensatory mechanism related to endothelial damage in RA-ILD+, RA-ILD-and IPF patients. Interestingly, EPC frequency may help to establish a differential diagnostic between patients with IPF and those who have an underlying autoimmune disease (RA-ILD+).References:[1] J Clin Med 2019; 8: 2038;[2] Arthritis Rheumatol 2015; 67: 28-38;[3] Nat Protoc 2015; 10: 1697-1708;[4] Science 1997; 275: 964-966;[5] Rheumatology (Oxford) 2012; 51: 1775-1784;[6] Angiogenesis 2013; 16: 147-157.Acknowledgments:Personal funds, VP-C: PREVAL18/01 (IDIVAL); SR-M: RD16/0012/0009 (ISCIII-ERDF); LL-G: PI18/00042 (ISCIII-ERDF); RL-M: Miguel Servet type I CP16/00033 (ISCIII-ESF).Disclosure of Interests:Verónica Pulito-Cueto: None declared, Sara Remuzgo-Martínez: None declared, Fernanda Genre: None declared, Victor Manuel Mora-Cuesta: None declared, David Iturbe Fernández: None declared, Sonia Fernández-Rozas: None declared, Leticia Lera-Gómez: None declared, Pilar Alonso Lecue: None declared, Javier Rodriguez Carrio: None declared, Belén Atienza-Mateo: None declared, Virginia Portilla: None declared, David Merino: None declared, Ricardo Blanco Grant/research support from: AbbVie, MSD, Roche, Consultant of: Abbvie, Eli Lilly, Pfizer, Roche, Bristol-Myers, Janssen, UCB Pharma and MSD, Speakers bureau: Abbvie, Eli Lilly, Pfizer, Roche, Bristol-Myers, Janssen, UCB Pharma.

Due to their specific mesoporous structure and large surface area, mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs) possess both drug-delivery ability and effective ionic release to promote bone regeneration by stimulating osteogenesis and angiogenesis. Macrophages secrete mediators that can affect both processes, depending on their phenotype. In this work, the action of ion release from MBG-75S, with a molar composition of 75SiO2-20CaO-5P2O5, on osteogenesis and angiogenesis and the modulatory role of macrophages have been assessed in vitro with MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts and endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in monoculture and in coculture with RAW 264.7 macrophages. Ca2+, phosphorous, and silicon ions released from MBG-75S were measured in the culture medium during both differentiation processes. Alkaline phosphatase activity and matrix mineralization were quantified as the key markers of osteogenic differentiation in MC3T3-E1 cells. The expression of CD31, CD34, VEGFR2, eNOS, and vWF was evaluated to characterize the EPC differentiation into mature endothelial cells. Other cellular parameters analyzed included the cell size and complexity, intracellular calcium, and intracellular content of the reactive oxygen species. The results obtained indicate that the ions released by MBG-75S promote osteogenesis and angiogenesis in vitro, evidencing a macrophage inhibitory role in these processes and demonstrating the high potential of MBG-75S for the preparation of implants for bone regeneration.
