Circulating Extracellular Vesicle miR-150–5p as a biomarker for optimizing clinical management of sepsis and septic shock: A discovery and validation Study
Background
Sepsis and septic shock remain major causes of mortality in surgical patients. The role of extracellular vesicles (EVs), particularly their microRNAs (miRNAs) content, has emerged as key players in the detection and understanding of these conditions. Thus, this study aimed to profile circulating plasma-derived EV-miRNAs in patients with sepsis and septic shock to identify differential biomarkers that can facilitate the management of these patients.
Methods
A multicentric study was conducted in 100 patients who were followed prospectively, 58 developed septic shock and 42 developed sepsis. EV-miRNAs were isolated and massively sequenced to identify differentially expressed miRNAs between groups. Predictive performance was evaluated using receiver operating curves (ROC). Results were validated in an additional validation cohort. Furthermore, we compared our data with an external cohort of plasma miRNA data.
Results
Eighteen SDE (Statistically Differentially Expressed) EV-miRNAs were identified between the two groups of patients. Six EV-miRNAs had a good ability to detect septic shock. Low levels of hsa-miR-150–5p showed the best ability to detect septic shock (AUC: 0.852; 95 % CI: 0.75–0.96; p < 0.001) with a sensitivity of 86.96 % and a specificity of 78.72 %. hsa-miR-150–5p association with septic shock was validated and confirmed its presence in plasma via qPCR.
Conclusion
In conclusion, hsa-miR-150–5p levels exhibit a significant differential expression between septic shock and sepsis patients. This biomarker may help in early risk stratification and guide clinical decisions in post-surgical sepsis management. Moreover, our findings suggest its potential as a therapeutic target in sepsis, although its use as a therapeutic target requires further investigation.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Infection and Public Health, first official journal of the Saudi Arabian Ministry of National Guard Health Affairs, King Saud Bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences and the Saudi Association for Public Health, aims to be the foremost scientific, peer-reviewed journal encompassing infection prevention and control, microbiology, infectious diseases, public health and the application of healthcare epidemiology to the evaluation of health outcomes. The point of view of the journal is that infection and public health are closely intertwined and that advances in one area will have positive consequences on the other.
The journal will be useful to all health professionals who are partners in the management of patients with communicable diseases, keeping them up to date. The journal is proud to have an international and diverse editorial board that will assist and facilitate the publication of articles that reflect a global view on infection control and public health, as well as emphasizing our focus on supporting the needs of public health practitioners.
It is our aim to improve healthcare by reducing risk of infection and related adverse outcomes by critical review, selection, and dissemination of new and relevant information in the field of infection control, public health and infectious diseases in all healthcare settings and the community.
