    Monocyte-to-HDL ratio and non-HDL cholesterol were predictors of septic shock in newborns
    (2022) FONSECA, Fernanda Andrade Macaferri da da; ESPOSITO, Aline Paulino; SILVA, Maria Helena Baptista Nunes da; NUNES, Valeria Sutti; CAZITA, Patricia Miralda; FERREIRA, Guilherme Silva; CECCON, Maria Esther Jurfest Rivero; CARVALHO, Werther Brunow de; CARNEIRO-SAMPAIO, Magda; PALMEIRA, Patricia
    Background: The association between lipoprotein levels and late-onset neonatal sepsis has shown controversial results. The aims are to assess lipid profile, cytokines, and Monocyte-to-HDL (M/H) ratio as diagnostic and prog-nostic markers for late-onset neonatal sepsis.Methods: This prospective study included 49 septic neonates and 17 controls. Cholesterol (CT), Triglyceride (TG), Very-Low-Density (VLDLc), Low-Density (LDLc), and High-Density Lipoproteins (HDLc) were measured at admis-sion (D0) and on days 3, 7 and 10 to evaluate septic shock outcomes. Cytokines and monocytes were evaluated by flow cytometry.Results: Septic newborns showed higher IL-6 and IL-8 at D0 and CT levels on D7 and on D10, which also presented higher TG, VLDLc and non-HDL cholesterol concentrations than controls. The septic shock group (n = 22) revealed a higher number of male subjects, CRP, IL-6, IL-8 and IL-10 levels, while lower TG, HDLc, monocyte numbers and M/H ratio at admission compared to the non-shock group (n = 27). M/H ratio and non-HDL choles-terol on D0 were risk factors for septic shock (OR = 0.70, 0.49-0.99; OR = 0.96, 0.92-0.99, respectively). Decreasing levels from D0 to D3 of CT (OR = 0.96, 0.93-0.99), VLDLc (OR = 0.91, 0.85-0.98), and non-HDL cholesterol (OR = 0.92, 0.87-0.98) were also predictors of septic shock.Conclusions: Lower M/H ratios and non-HDL cholesterol at admission and decreasing levels of cholesterol, VLDLc and non-HDL cholesterol during a hospital stay are associated with the development of septic shock in newborns with late-onset neonatal sepsis.

    The Prolonged Activation of the p65 Subunit of the NF-Kappa-B Nuclear Factor Sustains the Persistent Effect of Advanced Glycation End Products on Inflammatory Sensitization in Macrophages
    (2024) ASSIS, Sayonara Ivana Santos de; AMENDOLA, Leonardo Szalo; OKAMOTO, Maristela Mitiko; FERREIRA, Guilherme da Silva; IBORRA, Rodrigo Tallada; SANTOS, Danielle Ribeiro; SANTANA, Monique de Fatima Mello; SANTANA, Kelly Gomes; CORREA-GIANNELLA, Maria Lucia; BARBEIRO, Denise Frediani; SORIANO, Francisco Garcia; MACHADO, Ubiratan Fabres; PASSARELLI, Marisa
    Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) prime macrophages for lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation. We investigated the persistence of cellular AGE-sensitization to LPS, considering the nuclear content of p50 and p65 nuclear factor kappa B (NFKB) subunits and the expression of inflammatory genes. Macrophages treated with control (C) or AGE-albumin were rested for varying intervals in medium alone before being incubated with LPS. Comparisons were made using one-way ANOVA or Student t-test (n = 6). AGE-albumin primed macrophages for increased responsiveness to LPS, resulting in elevated levels of TNF, IL-6, and IL-1beta (1.5%, 9.4%, and 5.6%, respectively), compared to C-albumin. TNF, IL-6, and IL-1 beta secretion persisted for up to 24 h even after the removal of AGE-albumin (area under the curve greater by 1.6, 16, and 5.2 times, respectively). The expressions of Il6 and RelA were higher 8 h after albumin removal, and Il6 and Abca1 were higher 24 h after albumin removal. The nuclear content of p50 remained similar, but p65 showed a sustained increase (2.9 times) for up to 24 h in AGE-albumin-treated cells. The prolonged activation of the p65 subunit of NFKB contributes to the persistent effect of AGEs on macrophage inflammatory priming, which could be targeted for therapies to prevent complications based on the AGE-RAGE-NFKB axis.

    Dietary Sodium and Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: A Systematic Review
    (2023) FERREIRA, Guilherme da Silva; CATANOZI, Sergio; PASSARELLI, Marisa
    (1) Introduction: Restriction in sodium intake is an important strategy for reducing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, considering the direct influence of high-sodium diet consumption on the development of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. There are only a few studies dealing with the influence of dietary sodium on the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). In this systematic review, evidence in humans and animal models was compiled in a critical view of the influence of dietary sodium intake patterns on NAFLD markers; (2) Methods: Systematic review of PubMed data. Clinical outcomes included the prevalence/incidence of NAFLD for human studies, and NAFLD markers (hepatic lipogenesis, and markers of steatosis, fibrosis, and inflammation) for animal studies. The protocol was registered at the International Prospective Register of Systematic Review (PROSPERO; CRD42023390447); (3) Results and Conclusion: Seven studies in humans and eight in animals were included. All studies in humans were observational and associated high-sodium intake with NAFLD. However, in animals, both the increased and reduced consumption of sodium negatively influenced markers of liver steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis.
