FK506 impairs neutrophil migration that results in increased polymicrobial sepsis susceptibility.
    Inflammation research : official journal of the European Histamine Research Society ... [et al.], 2023, Volume: 72, Issue:2

    This study aimed to investigate the effects of FK506 on experimental sepsis immunopathology. It investigated the effect of FK506 on leukocyte recruitment to the site of infection, systemic cytokine production, and organ injury in mice with sepsis.. FK506 treatment potentiated the failure of neutrophil migration into the peritoneal cavity, resulting in bacteremia and an exacerbated systemic inflammatory response, which led to higher organ damage and mortality rates. Failed neutrophil migration was associated with elevated CXCL2 chemokine plasma levels and lower expression of the CXCR2 receptor on circulating neutrophils compared with non-treated CLP-induced septic mice. FK506 did not directly affect CXCL2-induced CXCR2 internalization by transfected HEK-293 cells or mice neutrophils, despite increasing CXCL2 release by LPS-treated macrophages. Finally, the CLP-induced response of Nfat1. Our data indicate that the increased susceptibility to infection of FK506-treated mice is associated with failed neutrophil migration due to the reduced membrane availability of CXCR2 receptors in response to exacerbated levels of circulating CXCL2.

Diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma in Stevens-Johnson syndrome-like acute graft-versus-host disease after liver transplantation: A case report.
    Frontiers in immunology, 2022, Volume: 13

    Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) is a severe and fatal complication after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Clinical manifestations of severe aGVHD can resemble drug-induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), and there are also various medications, such as antibiotics and immunosuppressants, used after transplantation, causing a diagnostic dilemma. Furthermore, there have been no standardized diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for OLT-aGVHD due to its rarity.. A 52-year-old man presented with generalized maculopapular eruptions, fever, and pancytopenia 1 month after OLT and 4 days after taking sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim. After assessment of the scoring criteria for drug causality of drug allergy, histopathological findings of skin biopsy, lymphocyte activation test of the potential offending drug, and microchimerism study, the diagnosis was in favor of aGVHD mimicking SJS/TEN. Considering severe sepsis, the anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) agent, etanercept, was used to replace tacrolimus and corticosteroid. Skin lesions resolved gradually after anti-TNF-α biologics rescue; tacrolimus and corticosteroid therapy were re-administrated after controlling sepsis. Pancytopenia recovered and the patient was discharged in a stable condition.. We demonstrated a diagnostic strategy for OLT-aGVHD. Targeting therapy with anti-TNF-α blockade and a temporary withdrawal of traditional immunosuppressants may be among effective and safe therapeutic options of OLT-aGVHD for those with severe sepsis.

Clinical course of COVID-19 disease in immunosuppressed renal transplant patients
    Turkish journal of medical sciences, 2021, 04-30, Volume: 51, Issue:2

    We aimed to identify clinical settings of renal transplant patients with COVID-19.. In this retrospective study, we included kidney transplant inpatients with laboratory confirmed COVID-19 who had been discharged or had died by October 1st, 2020. Characteristics of the patients, including basal and last outpatient biochemical parameters were recorded. Discontinuation or dosage reduction of immunosuppressives and other treatment information was documented.. Twenty patients were included in this study, of whom 18 were discharged and 2 died in hospital. The mean duration of hospitalization and follow-up were 9.7 ± 6.4 days and 4.5 ± 2.0 months, respectively. Fourteen patients (70%) were male and mean age was 48.0 ± 10.3 years. At admission, all had immunosuppression withdrawn and were started on methylprednisolone 16 mg/ day (50%) or dexamethasone (50%). Tacrolimus/m-TOR inhibitors were reduced by 50% and all antimetabolites were discontinued. Hemodialysis was needed for 10% of patients. Acute kidney injury was detected in 25% of the patients. With respect to hospitalization time and complications, there was no significant difference between patients who used dexamethasone and those who did not (P > 0.05). The discontinued immunosuppressives were resumed within 2 to 4 weeks after discharge according to the severity of disease. No rehospitalization or acute rejection was detected during the follow-up of the patients.. Renal transplant patients are considered a high risk group for COVID-19. It can be said that discontinuation or reducing dosages of immunosuppressives may be effective and safe in kidney transplant patients.

Inflammation-targeting polymeric nanoparticles deliver sparfloxacin and tacrolimus for combating acute lung sepsis.
    Journal of controlled release : official journal of the Controlled Release Society, 2020, 05-10, Volume: 321

    Sepsis is a complex disorder with very high morbidity and mortality; it can occur when an immune disorder triggers an invasion of pathogens in the host. Although many potential anti-infective and immunosuppressive treatments have been reported, we still do not have effective means of treating sepsis in clinic. The aim of this study is to develop a nanomaterial system that targets the site of inflammation and carries a combination of multiple drugs to better treat sepsis and alleviate its symptoms. We selected poly(lactide-co-glycolide acid) (PLGA) with good biocompatibility and degradability to prepare the nanoparticles (NPs) loaded with broad-spectrum antibiotic Sparfloxacin (SFX) and anti-inflammatory immunosuppressant Tacrolimus (TAC) by an emulsion-solvent evaporation method. The targeting ability of the NPs toward inflammatory sites is endowed by grafting of the γ3 peptide (NNQKIVNLKEKVAQLEA) that can specifically bind to the intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), which is highly expressed on the surface of inflammatory endothelial cells. The drug loaded γ3-PLGA NPs have excellent cytocompatibility, low hemolysis ratio, and systemic toxicity. The drug loaded γ3-PLGA NPs also have excellent antibacterial property to both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and can effectively reduce the inflammation and immune response in acute lung infection mice. This study provides a simple and robust nanoplatform to treat lung infection induced sepsis, which may pave a way to design multifunctional nanomedicine for clinical translation.

Use of phenytoin for treatment of tacrolimus toxicity with superimposed sepsis.
    BMJ case reports, 2020, Jul-20, Volume: 13, Issue:7

    A 40-year-old woman with a history of chronic graft-versus-host-disease on immunosuppression with tacrolimus presented to the hospital with somnolence, confusion and muscle cramps over a few days. She was found to have hypertension, hyperglycaemia and acute kidney injury with an elevated blood tacrolimus level of greater than 120 ng/mL (reference range 5-15 ng/mL). Discontinuation of tacrolimus with concomitant administration of intravenous phenytoin led to the successful reduction of elevated tacrolimus concentrations and the resolution of her symptoms. Tacrolimus is metabolised by the cytochrome P (CYP) 450 3A enzyme system, and utilisation of CYP 3A inducers to accelerate its clearance may be used as a successful therapy to treat tacrolimus toxicity.

Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with post-transplant high-dose cyclophosphamide in high-risk children: A single-center study.
    Pediatric transplantation, 2016, Volume: 20, Issue:3

    Recently, haploidentical transplantations have been performed with unmanipulated BM or PBSC. This approach is becoming more widely adopted with the use of PTCY. However, there is limited evidence about this approach in children. We present 15 children who received 16 haploidentical HSCT with unmanipulated BM or PBSC using PTCY for GVHD prophylaxis. Post-transplant CY(50 mg/kg IV) was given on the third and fifth day, and CsA or tacrolimus with MMF or MP was also used for GVHD prophylaxis. All patients engrafted at a median of 16 and 18 days for neutrophil and thrombocyte recovery, respectively. Grades II-III acute GVHD developed in seven patients, and mild chronic GVHD was found in two patients. Two patients died within the first 100 days due to sepsis (TRM 12.5%). Eleven patients are currently alive, with a median follow-up of 12 months (range 6-22 months). The 12-month OS and DFS were 75 ± 10.8% and 68.8 ± 11.6%, respectively. Our results with these high-risk patients are encouraging for haploidentical HSCT in pediatric patients. Future studies should continue to assess haploidentical HSCT, including comparison of other modalities, in a primary pediatric population.

Differential risks for adverse outcomes 3 years after kidney transplantation based on initial immunosuppression regimen: a national study.
    Transplant international : official journal of the European Society for Organ Transplantation, 2016, Volume: 29, Issue:11

    We examined integrated national transplant registry, pharmacy fill, and medical claims data for Medicare-insured kidney transplant recipients in 2000-2011 (n = 45 164) from the United States Renal Data System to assess the efficacy and safety endpoints associated with seven early (first 90 days) immunosuppression (ISx) regimens. Risks of clinical complications over 3 years according to IS regimens were assessed with multivariate regression analysis, including the adjustment for covariates and propensity for receipt of a nonreference ISx regimen. Compared with the reference ISx (thymoglobulin induction with tacrolimus, mycophenolate, and prednisone maintenance), sirolimus-based ISx was associated with significantly higher three-year risks of pneumonia (adjusted hazard ratio, aHR 1.45; P < 0.0001), sepsis (aHR 1.40; P < 0.0001), diabetes (aHR 1.21; P < 0.0001), acute rejection (AR; adjusted odds ratio, aOR 1.33; P < 0.0001), graft failure (aHR 1.78; P < 0.0001), and patient death (aHR 1.40; P < 0.0001), but reduced skin cancer risk (aHR 0.71; P < 0.001). Cyclosporine-based IS was associated with increased risks of pneumonia (aHR 1.17; P < 0.001), sepsis (aHR 1.16; P < 0.001), AR (aOR 1.43; P < 0.001), and graft failure (aHR 1.39; P < 0.001), but less diabetes (aHR 0.83; P < 0.001). Steroid-free ISx was associated with the reduced risk of pneumonia (aHR 0.89; P = 0.002), sepsis (aHR 0.80; P < 0.001), and diabetes (aHR 0.77; P < 0.001), but higher graft failure (aHR 1.35; P < 0.001). Impacts of ISx over time warrant further study to better guide ISx tailoring to balance the efficacy and morbidity.

Rapid identification of antifungal compounds against Exserohilum rostratum using high throughput drug repurposing screens.
    PloS one, 2013, Volume: 8, Issue:8

    A recent large outbreak of fungal infections by Exserohilum rostratum from contaminated compounding solutions has highlighted the need to rapidly screen available pharmaceuticals that could be useful in therapy. The present study utilized two newly-developed high throughput assays to screen approved drugs and pharmaceutically active compounds for identification of potential antifungal agents. Several known drugs were found that have potent effects against E. rostratum including the triazole antifungal posaconazole. Posaconazole is likely to be effective against infections involving septic joints and may provide an alternative for refractory central nervous system infections. The anti-E. rostratum activities of several other drugs including bithionol (an anti-parasitic drug), tacrolimus (an immunosuppressive agent) and floxuridine (an antimetabolite) were also identified from the drug repurposing screens. In addition, activities of other potential antifungal agents against E. rostratum were excluded, which may avoid unnecessary therapeutic trials and reveals the limited therapeutic alternatives for this outbreak. In summary, this study has demonstrated that drug repurposing screens can be quickly conducted within a useful time-frame. This would allow clinical implementation of identified alternative therapeutics and should be considered as part of the initial public health response to new outbreaks or rapidly-emerging microbial pathogens.

Detrimental role for CD4+ T lymphocytes in murine diffuse peritonitis due to inhibition of local bacterial elimination.
    Gut, 2008, Volume: 57, Issue:2

    Abdominal sepsis due to intestinal leakage of endogenous gut bacteria is a life-threatening condition. In healthy individuals, T lymphocytes have essential functions in balancing the immune response to the commensal gut flora.. To determine how T lymphocytes shape the process of diffuse faecal peritonitis.. In colon ascendens stent peritonitis (CASP), a clinically relevant mouse model of diffuse peritonitis, the kinetics of systemic T cell activation were investigated by assessment of activation markers. CD4(+) T cells were then depleted with monoclonal antibodies, and survival, bacterial dissemination and cytokine concentrations were measured. T cell receptor signalling was blocked with tacrolimus.. In diffuse peritonitis, CD4(+) T cells, both Foxp3(-) and Foxp3(+), became systemically involved within hours and upregulated CTLA-4 and other activation markers. Depletion of the CD4(+) T cells enhanced local bacterial clearance from the peritoneal cavity, reduced bacterial dissemination and improved survival. This was accompanied by increased immigration of granulocytes and macrophages into the peritoneum, indicating that CD4(+) T cells inhibit the local innate immune response. Blockade of T cell receptor (TCR) signalling by tacrolimus did not influence the survival in this peritonitis model, showing that the inhibitory effects of the CD4(+) T lymphocytes were independent of TCR-mediated antigen recognition.. In diffuse peritonitis caused by commensal gut bacteria the CD4(+) T lymphocytes exert a net negative effect on the local anti-bacterial defence, and thereby contribute to bacterial dissemination and poor outcome.

Hepatitis C after liver transplantation.
    Seminars in liver disease, 2000, Volume: 20, Issue:2

    Hepatitis C is the most common cause of end-stage liver disease leading to liver transplant. The disease can recur after transplant, resulting in clinical hepatitis in up to 75% of patients and severe disease in approximately 7%. Treatment of rejection with steroid boluses and treatment of steroid-resistant rejection with OKT3 have both been shown to increase the incidence of recurrent hepatitis C. The use of OKT3 for steroid-resistant rejection is reportedly associated with more severe recurrence. The calcineurin inhibitors tacrolimus and cyclosporine have not been conclusively associated with different rates or severity of recurrence. Viral levels rise 10- to 15-fold after transplant and appear to be associated with the use of immunosuppression. Studies suggest that high viral levels, either pretransplant or early after transplant, may be associated with severe recurrent disease. Although the role of genotype is still unclear, genotype 1b is known to be associated with a poorer prognosis in nontransplanted patients and a lesser response to treatment than other genotypes. Furthermore, some reports suggest that after transplant, recurrent disease may progress more rapidly in patients with genotype 1. Treatment options after recurrence remain poor. Neither interferon nor ribavirin alone provides any true benefit. Combination therapy appears to have a better short-term outcome but may be poorly tolerated, and long-term benefits are unknown. Prophylaxis with combination therapy may be a better option but requires further study. Finally, retransplantation for recurrent hepatitis C is complicated not by rapid recurrence of disease in the new allograft but by high perioperative mortality that may be predicted by the presence of renal failure or sepsis preretransplant.

Use of granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor in children after orthotopic liver transplantation.
    Journal of hepatology, 1998, Volume: 28, Issue:6

    Bacterial infections complicate the course of up to 80% of pediatric liver transplant recipients, and in some cases, neutropenia, surgical complications and/or antibiotic resistance prevent successful control of sepsis. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factors (GM-CSF) in treating neutropenia following pediatric orthotopic liver transplantation.. Among a cohort of 430 pediatric orthotopic liver transplantation recipients, 13 children (12 months to 15 years, median 2 years, 10 males) received 15 courses of GM-CSF, 5 microg x kg(-1) x d(-1) subcutaneously, during their post-transplant course. In nine cases, the initial neutrophil count was below 1000/mm3. Ten patients were infected. Three received GM-CSF for severe sepsis without neutropenia. The mean duration of treatment was 16.3 days (range 4-49).. In all but one neutropenic patient the neutrophil count increased above 1500/mm3 and the mean neutrophil count increased from 1392+/-1912/mm3 (range 130-7170, median 640) to 4508+/-2459/mm3 (range 350-9630, median 4390) (p<0.01). Only one neutropenic patient (FK506 related) failed to respond to treatment. No rejection episode was induced by treatment, no side effects were noted, and patients with sepsis were cured.. In these patients, GM-CSF was safe, it achieved a significant increase in neutrophilic count, and was beneficial in patients with severe bacterial infections. This compound may prevent infectious complications in neutropenic patients and may benefit patients with severe sepsis with or without neutropenia.

Graft-versus-host disease after liver and small bowel transplantation in a child.
    Clinical transplantation, 1997, Volume: 11, Issue:5 Pt 1

    An 8-month-old child with an immunodeficiency disorder characterized by abnormal lymphocyte function and by low IgG and IgA levels had combined liver and small bowel transplantation under tacrolimus and steroid immunosuppression for the treatment of short gut syndrome and hepatic cirrhosis. The patient developed an early postoperative episode of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, and a subsequent surgical complication, prompting discontinuance of tacrolimus. A skin rash eventually shown to be graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) developed in the flank on the 12th post-transplant day and gradually became generalized. Peritonitis, sepsis, multisystem organ failure including the liver allograft led to death on the 23rd post-operative day. The mechanisms leading to post-transplant GVHD under the specific circumstances in this case are discussed.

Intestinal transplantation at the University of Pittsburgh.
    Transplantation proceedings, 1994, Volume: 26, Issue:3

    Our experience with clinical intestinal transplantation under FK 506 immunosuppression showed that 50% of the recipients were able to be independent from TPN after transplantation, but 10% require partial TPN with functioning grafts, 10% needed total TPN after graft removal, and 30% of the recipients died postoperatively, mostly from sepsis due to severe graft rejection. For further improvement in patient survival and in the quality of life for patients after intestinal transplantation, it is mandatory to establish a new strategy for treatment and prevention of graft rejection and systemic infection.
