We reported here that the expression of EZH2 and H3K27me3 was significantly upregulated in the circulation of septic patients, whereas patients who survived presented downregulated the expression of EZH2 on CD14+ monocytes/macrophages. We further identified increased expression of EZH2 in the circulation, peritoneal fluid, and septic lungs from CLP mice. 3-DZNeP treated CLP mice improved mortality and protected from organ injury. EZH2 inhibition not only suppressed the activation of inflammatory cells and release of cytokines in the circulation and infectious sites, but also promoted bacteria clearance and replenished the circulating monocyte and neutrophil pool from bone marrow. Blockage of EZH2 also suppressed the progression of lung injury and alleviated inflammation by decreasing the pulmonary cell apoptosis, reducing inflammatory cells infiltration and cytokines release through inhibition of the STAT3 signaling pathway and recovery of PPARγ activation. In addition, EZH2 inhibitor blunted macrophage M1 polarization by SOCS3/STAT1 pathway. Overall, these data suggest that EZH2 could be a potential biomarker predicting clinical outcome and a new target for therapeutic interference in sepsis.","PeriodicalId":7201,"journal":{"name":"Acute critical care","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81307916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aims and Objectives: To assess how a treatment algorithm incorporating High Flow Nasal Cannula (HNFC) oxygen therapy and Extracorporeal CO2 Removal (ECCO2R) may affect the short-term mortality of patients with AE-IPF who develop ARF. Methods: Seventeen AE-IPF patients admitted to a Respiratory Intensive Care Unit (RICU) for ARF were managed using a treatment algorithm incorporating HFNC and ECCO2R. Mortality rate during their stay in the RICU and short-term survival rates were recorded. Results: The implementation of the treatment algorithm led to a successful outcome in 9 patients (52.9%). 8 patients (47.1%) died within 39 days of being admitted to the RICU. The survival rate was 70.6% (±0.1 %) at 15 days, 52.9% (±0.1%) at 30 days, 35.3% (±0.1%) at 90 days, and 15.6% (±9.73 %) at 365 days. Four/10 patients who did not respond to conventional oxygen therapy showed a satisfactory response to HFNC. Conclusions: Short-term mortality fell to below 50 per cent when a treatment algorithm incorporating HFNC and ECCO2R was implemented in a group of AE-IPF patients admitted to a RICU for ARF. Subjects not responding to conventional oxygen therapy seemed to benefit from HFNC.","PeriodicalId":7201,"journal":{"name":"Acute critical care","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88111640","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
