摘要


INTRODUCTION:Adenosine exerts anti-inflammatory and tissue-protective effects during systemic inflammation. While the tissue-protective effects might limit organ damage, its anti-inflammatory properties may induce immunoparalysis and impede bacterial clearance. The common 34C>T loss-of-function variant of AMPD1 (rs17602729) is associated with increased adenosine formation, but effects on immune function and outcome in sepsis patients are unknown. METHODS:The effects of the presence of the 34C>T variant on sepsis susceptibility, immune function, multi-organ dysfunction, and mortality in septic patients were studied. Patients suffering from community acquired pneumonia (CAP, initial cohort n = 285; replication cohort n = 212) and ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP, n = 117; n = 33) and control patients without infection (n = 101) were enrolled. Genetic distributions of the AMPD1 SNP were CC 76%, CT 22%, and TT 2% in the initial cohort and CC 80%, CT 18%, and TT 2% in the replication cohort. RESULTS:The occurrence of septic CAP, but not septic VAP, was increased for the CT versus CC genotype (OR (95% CI) 2.0 (1.1-3.7); P = 0.02) in the initial cohort. The increased risk for the CT versus CC genotype was also observed in the replication cohort but did not reach statistical significance there (P = 0.38), resulting in an OR of the total group of 1.7 (95% CI 1.0-3.1), P = 0.07. In septic patients carrying the CT genotype, the ex vivo production of TNF-α by LPS-stimulated monocytes was attenuated (P = 0.005), indicative of a more pronounced immunoparalytic state in these patients. CONCLUSIONS:Presence of the AMPD1 34C>T variant is associated with higher infection susceptibility to CAP, but not to VAP. More pronounced immunoparalysis in these patients mediated by the anti-inflammatory effects of adenosine may account for this observation.
