Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Receptor-1 Agonist Sew2871 Causes Severe Cardiac Side Effects and Does Not Improve Microvascular Barrier Breakdown in Sepsis.
Endothelial barrier dysfunction is a hallmark in the pathogenesis of sepsis. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) has been proposed to be critically involved in the maintenance of endothelial barrier function predominately by activating S1P receptor-1 (S1P1). Previous studies have shown that the specific S1P1 agonist SEW2871 improves endothelial barrier function under inflammatory conditions. However, the effectiveness of SEW2871 and potential side effects remained largely unexplored in a clinically relevant model of sepsis. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of SEW2871 in the Colon ascendens stent peritonitis (CASP) model.. Polymicrobial sepsis was induced in Sprague-Dawley rats using CASP model that enabled the monitoring of macro-hemodynamic parameters. Twelve hours after surgery, animals received either SEW2871 or sodium chloride. Mesenteric endothelial barrier function was evaluated 24 h after sepsis induction by intravital microscopy. Organ pathology was assessed in lungs. S1P levels, blood gas analyses, and blood values were measured at different time points. In parallel the effect of SEW2871 was evaluated in human dermal microvascular endothelial cells.. In vitro SEW2871 partially stabilized TNF-α-induced endothelial barrier breakdown. However, in vivo SEW2871 caused severe cardiac side effects in septic animals leading to an increased lethality. Sepsis-induced endothelial barrier dysfunction was not attenuated by SEW2871 as revealed by increased FITC-albumin extra-vasation, requirement of intravasal fluid replacement, and pulmonary edema. Interestingly, Sham-operated animals did not present any side effects after SEW2871 treatment.. Our study demonstrates that the application of SEW2871 causes severe cardiac side effects and cannot attenuate the inflammation-induced endothelial barrier breakdown in a clinically relevant sepsis model, suggesting that the time point of administration and the pro-inflammatory milieu play a pivotal role in the therapeutic benefit of SEW2871.

Pharmacologic targeting of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 improves the renal microcirculation during sepsis in the mouse.
Microvascular failure is hallmark of sepsis in humans and is recognized as a strong predictor of mortality. In the mouse subjected to cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) to induce a clinically relevant sepsis, renal microvascular permeability increases and peritubular capillary perfusion declines rapidly in the kidney leading to acute kidney injury (AKI). Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a key regulator of microvascular endothelial function. To investigate the role of S1P in the development of microvascular permeability and peritubular capillary hypoperfusion in the kidney during CLP-induced AKI, we used a pharmacologic approach and a clinically relevant delayed dosing paradigm. Evans blue dye was used to measure renal microvascular permeability and intravital video microscopy was used to quantitate renal cortical capillary perfusion. The S1P receptor 1 (S1P1) agonist SEW2871 [5-[4-phenyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)-2-thienyl]-3-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-1,2,4-oxadiazole] and S1P2 antagonist JTE-013 [N-(2,6-dichloro-4-pyridinyl)-2-[1,3-dimethyl-4-(1-methylethyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6-yl]-hydrazinecarboxamide] were administered at the time of CLP and produced a dose-dependent but partial reduction in renal microvascular permeability at 6 hours after CLP. However, neither agent improved capillary perfusion at 6 hours. With delayed administration at 6 hours after CLP, only SEW2871 reversed microvascular permeability when measured at 18 hours. Importantly, SEW2871 also restored capillary perfusion and improved renal function. These data suggest that S1P1 and S1P2 do not regulate the early decline in renal capillary perfusion. However, later in the course of sepsis, pharmacologic stimulation of S1P1, even when delaying therapy until after injury has occurred, improves capillary and renal function, suggesting this approach should be evaluated as an adjunct therapy during sepsis.

Endogenous protein C has a protective role during Gram-negative pneumosepsis (melioidosis).
Activated protein C (APC) exerts anticoagulant effects via inactivation of factors Va and VIIIa and cytoprotective effects via protease activated receptor (PAR)1. Inhibition of endogenous APC in endotoxemia and sepsis results in exacerbation of coagulation and inflammation, with consequent enhanced lethality.. We here sought to dissect the distinct roles of the anticoagulant and cytoprotective functions of endogenous APC in severe Gram-negative pneumonia-derived sepsis (melioidosis).. We infected wild-type (WT) mice with Burkholderia pseudomallei, a common sepsis pathogen in southeast Asia, and treated them with antibodies inhibiting both the anticoagulant and cytoprotective functions of APC (MPC1609) or the anticoagulant functions of APC (MAPC1591) only. Additionally, we administered SEW2871 (stimulating the S1P1-pathway downstream from PAR1) to control and MPC1609-treated mice.. MPC1609, but not MAPC1591, significantly worsened survival, increased coagulation activation, facilitated bacterial growth and dissemination and enhanced the inflammatory response. The effects of MPC1609 could not be reversed by SEW2871, suggesting that S1P1 does not play a major role in this model.. These results suggest that the mere inhibition of the anticoagulant function of APC does not interfere with its protective role during Gram-negative pneumosepsis, suggesting a more prominent role for cytoprotective effects of APC .
