Serum levels of CD14 in neonatal sepsis by Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria

The purpose of this study is to measure soluble CD14 (sCD14) levels in sera from newborn with sepsis, to compare it with other markers, and to study its evolution in Gram-negative and Gram-positive sepsis. Forty normal newborns were included (26 were full term and 14 were preterm infants), 20 babies had a positive blood culture (11 Gram-positive and 9 Gram-negative) and 16 cases were suspected of having sepsis based on clinical and laboratory findings, but a negative blood culture. Interleukin-6 (IL-6), sCD14, and tumour necrosis factor-α (TNFα) were measured by enzyme immunoassay, and fibronectin (FN) and C-reactive protein (CRP) by radial immunodiffusion. Neonates with a positive blood culture had increased levels of sCD14(3.20 ± 1.26μgml^-1, p < 0.001), CRP(69 ± 46 μgml^-1, p < 0.001)and IL-6 (134 ± 150 pg ml^-1, p < 0.001), and decreased values of FN (12.3 ± 6.6 mg ml^-1, p < 0.001). TNFα levels were also high (160 ± 37 pg ml^-1), but this increase was not statistically significant. Newborn infants suspected of having sepsis but a negative blood culture had similar but milder abnormalities. Soluble CD 14 levels correlated with CRP values; however, there was no correlation between sCD 14, TNFα and IL-6. Neonates with sepsis by Gram-positive bacteria had lower sCD14 levels than patients with Gram-negative sepsis (2.63 ± 1.2 versus 4.04 ± 1.0μgml^-1, p < 0.05). In conclusion, the sCD14 level is increased in newborn infants with sepsis, and this is higher in infections by Gram-negative bacteria, suggesting a different contribution of monocyte and macrophage cells. In contrast, IL-6, TNFα, CRP and FN values are similar in infections by Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.     

The pronase resistance of cholesterol-nucleating glycoproteins in human bile

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Many putative pronucleating proteins have been isolated from the biliary concanavalin A (con A)-binding fraction. The pronase resistance of the overall nucleating-promoting activity was almost never taken into consideration. The aim of this study was to identify the major pronase-resistant con A-binding glycoproteins. METHODS: Pronase-treated and -untreated con A-binding glycoproteins were separated on a Superose 12 gel permeation column (Pharmacia, Uppsala, Sweden) and tested in a crystal growth assay. Proteins were identified by amino-terminal sequencing. RESULTS: Con A-binding pronucleating activity eluted in two peaks on the Superose column. This activity was unaltered after pronase treatment. Activity peak I contained too little protein to allow amino-terminal sequencing. In activity peak II, the major pronase-resistant con A-binding glycoproteins were identified as alpha 1-antitrypsin and alpha 1- antichymotrypsin. The 130-kilodalton nucleation promoter was identified as aminopeptidase N, but the full pronase resistance of this protein, reported earlier, was not confirmed. Immunoabsorptive removal of alpha 1-antitrypsin and alpha 1-antichymotrypsin and immunopurification showed that only alpha 1-antichymotrypsin had pronucleating activity. CONCLUSIONS: The pronase resistance of the nucleating-promoting activity of the con A-binding glycoprotein fraction was confirmed. An important part of this activity could be attributed to alpha 1- antichymotrypsin. It is an acute-phase protein, as are many other pronucleating proteins, which might indicate a general mechanism of action in gallstone formation. (Gastroenterology 1996 Jun;110(6):1926-35)     

Biomarkers of periodontal inflammation in the Australian adult population

Background:  Several inflammatory biomarkers are implicated in the pathogenesis of periodontitis including interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and C-reactive protein (CRP). This study investigated the presence of these factors in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and their relationship to clinical and social determinants of periodontitis in the Australian population.
Methods:  Equal numbers of periodontitis cases and non-cases were sampled during oral epidemiologic examination in the National Survey of Adult Oral Health. GCF was sampled from four sites where probing pocket depth (PPD) and recession were recorded. From these, IL-1β and CRP were quantified by ELISA and the log amount of GCF IL-1β (pg) per person and the proportion of adults with detectable CRP was computed.
Results:  Periodontitis cases (n = 511) had significantly higher levels of IL-1β and CRP than non-cases (n = 562). PPD, clinical attachment loss, plaque and gingivitis indices were positively associated with elevated levels of both biomarkers. Levels of both were positively associated with age, low socio-economic position and non-Australian birth.
Conclusions:  The presence of IL-1β and CRP in GCF are associated with periodontal disease parameters within the Australian population. The levels of both biomarkers are influenced by age, education and eligibility for public dental care.
