Abstract	Sepsis is a life-threatening condition caused by the dysregulated host response to infection. Novel therapeutic options are urgently needed and aquaporin inhibitors could suffice as aquaporin 5 ( Aqp5 ) knockdown provided enhanced sepsis survival in a murine sepsis model. Potential AQP5 inhibitors provide sulfonamides and their derivatives. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that sulfonamides reduce AQP5 expression in different conditions. The impact of sulfonamides on AQP5 expression and immune cell migration was examined in cell lines REH and RAW 264.7 by qPCR, Western blot and migration assay. Subsequently, whether furosemide and methazolamide are capable of reducing AQP5 expression after LPS incubation was investigated in whole blood samples of healthy volunteers. Incubation with methazolamide (10 −5 M) and furosemide (10 −6 M) reduced AQP5 mRNA and protein expression by about 30% in REH cells. Pre-incubation of the cells with methazolamide reduced cell migration towards SDF1-α compared to non-preincubated cells to control level. Pre-incubation with methazolamide in PBMCs led to a reduction in LPS-induced AQP5 expression compared to control levels, while furosemide failed to reduce it. Methazolamide appears to reduce AQP5 expression and migration of immune cells. However, after LPS administration, the reduction in AQP5 expression by methazolamide is no longer possible. Hence, our study indicates that methazolamide is capable of reducing AQP5 expression and has the potential to be used in sepsis prophylaxis.

Abstract	Infections with cytomegalovirus (CMV) are one of the most frequent opportunistic infections in kidney transplant recipients. Current risk-adapted CMV chemoprophylaxis regimens are based almost solely on the donor and recipient CMV serostatus. Of note, the NFKB1 -94ins/delATTG promoter polymorphism was recently associated with a higher risk of CMV infection. Since single genetic association studies suffer from poor reliability for drawing therapeutic implications, we performed this confirmatory study and included 256 kidney transplant recipients from 2007 to 2014 in this retrospective study. Patients were genotyped for the -94ins/delATTG NFKB1 promoter polymorphism and followed up for 12 months. The incidence of CMV infection within 12 months after kidney transplantation was 37.5% (33/88) for the ins/ins, 21.5% (28/130) for the ins/del, and 23.7% (9/38) for the del/del genotypes ( p = 0.023). Moreover, we evaluated the time of CMV infection onset. Ins/ins carriers had primarily late-onset CMV infection (median 194 days; interquartile range (IQR) 117–267 days) compared with heterozygous (ins/del; median 158 days; IQR 82–195 days) and homozygous deletion allele carriers (del/del; median 95 days; 84–123 days). Multivariate-restricted Cox regression model confirmed the ins/ins genotype to be an independent risk factor for the development of late-onset CMV infections. These findings should have an impact on post-kidney transplantation CMV chemoprophylaxis regimens.

Abstract	Background Propofol is a widely used anaesthetic drug with advantageous operating conditions and recovery profile. However, propofol could have long term effects on neuronal cells and is associated with post-operative delirium (POD). In this context, one of the contributing factors to the pathogenesis of POD is a reduction of cholinesterase activity. Accordingly, we investigated the effects of propofol on the methylation, expression and activity of cholinergic genes and proteins in an in-vitro model. Results We found that propofol indeed reduced the activity of AChE / BChE in our in-vitro model, without affecting the protein levels. Furthermore, we could show that propofol reduced the methylation of a repressor region of the CHRNA7 gene without changing the secretion of pro-or anti-inflammatory cytokines. Lastly, propofol changed the expression patterns of genes responsible for maintaining the epigenetic status of the cell and accordingly reduced the tri-methylation of H3 K27. Conclusion In conclusion we found a possible functional link between propofol treatment and POD, due to a reduced cholinergic activity. In addition to this, propofol changed the expression of different maintenance genes of the epigenome that also affected histone methylation. Thus, propofol treatment may also induce strong, long lasting changes in the brain by potentially altering the epigenetic landscape.

Abstract	Sepsis, with a persistently high 90-day mortality of about 46%, is the third most frequent cause of death in intensive care units worldwide. Further understanding of the inflammatory signaling pathways occurring in sepsis is important for new efficient treatment options. Key regulator of the inflammatory response is the transcription factor NFκB. As we have recently shown, the -94 Ins/Del NFKB1 promoter polymorphism influences sepsis mortality. However, a molecular explanation is still missing. Thus, promoter activity might be varying depending on the NFKB1 genotype, explaining the genotype dependent mortality from sepsis, and one likely mechanism is the degree of promoter methylation. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that NFκB mRNA expression is regulated by promoter methylation in human cell lines and primary immune cell cultures. First, we examined the methylation of the NFKB1 promoter in U937, REH and HL-60 cells. In the promoter region of nt+99/+229 methylation in all analyzed cell lines was below 1%. Following incubation with bacterial cell wall components, no significant changes in the frequency of promoter methylation in U937 and REH cells were measured and the methylation frequency was under 1%. However, NFκB1 mRNA expression was two-fold increased in U937 cells after 24 h incubation with LPS. By contrast, demethylation by 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine incubation enhanced NFκB1 expression significantly. In addition, we analyzed NFKB1 promoter methylation in primary cells from healthy volunteers depending on the NFKB1-94 Ins/Del genotype. Methylation in the promoter region from nt+402 to nt+99 was below 1%. Genotype dependent differences occurred in neutrophil cells, where DD-genotype was significantly more methylated compared to II genotype at nt+284/+402. Besides in the promoter region from nt-227/-8 in ID-genotypes methylation of neutrophils was significantly decreased compared to lymphocytes and in II-genotypes methylation in neutrophils was significantly decreased compared to lymphocytes and monocytes. ...

Abstract	Major complications after kidney transplantation are graft rejection and cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, which are related to T-cell function, which depends on aquaporin3 (AQP3) expression. The impact of the AQP3 A(−1431)G promoter polymorphism in kidney transplant recipients was unelucidated and we explored the effect of AQP3 polymorphism on immune cell function and its association with graft rejection and CMV infection in 237 adult patients within 12 months after transplantation. AQP3 promoter polymorphism was molecular and functional characterized. Kaplan–Meier plots evaluated the relationship between genotypes and the incidence of CMV infection and graft rejection. AQP3 A(−1431)G A-allele was associated with enhanced immune cell migration and AQP3 expression in T-cells. The incidences of rejection were 45.4% for the A-allele and 27.1% for G-allele carriers ( p = 0.005) and the A-allele was a strong risk factor (hazard ratio (HR): 1.95; 95%CI: 1.216 to 3.127; p = 0.006). The incidences for CMV infection were 21% for A-allele and 35% for G-allele carriers ( p = 0.013) and G-allele was an independent risk factor ( p = 0.023), with a doubled risk for CMV infection (HR: 1.9; 95%CI: 1.154 to 3.128; p = 0.012). Hence, A-allele confers more resistance against CMV infection, but susceptibility to graft rejection mediated by T-cells. Thus, AQP3-genotype adapted management of immunosuppression and antiviral prophylaxis after kidney transplantation seems prudent .

Abstract	Abstract Altered aquaporin 5 (AQP5) expression in immune cells impacts on key mechanisms of inflammation and is associated with sepsis survival. Since epigenetic regulation via DNA methylation might contribute to a differential AQP5 expression in sepsis, we tested the hypotheses that DNA methylation of the AQP5 promotor (1) influences AQP5 expression, (2) is associated with the 30-day survival of septic patients, and (3) alters the nuclear transcription factor NF-κB binding. AQP5 mRNA expression was quantified by real-time PCR in whole blood samples of 135 septic patients. In silico computer analysis of the AQP5 promoter (nt-567 to nt-975) revealed seven putative inflammatory transcription factor binding sites and methylation of these sites was analyzed. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays were performed to assess the binding of nuclear NF-κB to the AQP5 promoter region nt-937. After adjustment for multiple testing, a greater methylation rate was found at cytosine site nt-937 in the AQP5 promoter linked to NF-κB binding in non-survivors compared to survivors (p = 0.002, padj = 0.014). This was associated with greater AQP5 mRNA expression in non-survivors (p = 0.037). Greater (≥16%) promoter methylation at nt-937 was also associated with an independently increased risk of death within 30 days (HR: 3.31; 95% CI: 1.54–6.23; p = 0.002). We detected a functionally important AQP5 promoter cytosine site (nt-937) linked to the binding of the inflammatorily acting nuclear transcription factor NF-κB, with increased methylation in sepsis non-survivors. Thus, nt-937 APQ5 promoter methylation, presumably related to NF-κB binding, is prognostically relevant in sepsis and demonstrates that epigenetic changes impact on sepsis outcome.

Abstract	Abstract Background The C-allele of the aquaporin (AQP5) -1364A/C polymorphism is associated with decreased AQP5 expression but increased 30-day survival in patients with severe sepsis. AQP5 expression might affect survival via an impact on cell migration. Consequently, we tested the hypothesis that (1) Aqp5 knockout (KO) compared to wild type (WT) mice show an increased survival following lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration, and that (2) AQP5 expression and the AQP5 -1364A/C polymorphism alters immune cell migration. Methods We investigated Aqp5-KO and wild type mice after intraperitoneal injection of either E.coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS, serotype O127:B8, 20 mg/kg) or saline. Furthermore, neutrophils of volunteers with the AA-AQP5 or AC/CC-AQP5- genotype were incubated with 10−8 M Chemotactic peptide (fMLP) and their migration was assessed by a filter migration assay. Additionally, AQP5 expression after fMLP incubation was analyzed by RT-PCR and Western blot. Moreover, migration of AQP5 overexpressing Jurkat cells was studied after SDF-1α-stimulation. We used exact Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney tests; exact Wilcoxon signed-rank tests and the Kaplan–Meier estimator for statistical analysis. Results Fifty-six percent of Aqp5-KO but only 22% of WT mice survived following LPS-injection. WT mice showed increased neutrophil migration into peritoneum and lung compared to Aqp5-KO mice. Target-oriented migration of neutrophils was seen after 0.5 h in AA-genotype cells but only after 1.5 h in AC/CC-genotype cells, with a threefold lower migrating cell count. AQP5 overexpressing Jurkat cells showed a 2.4 times stronger migration compared to native Jurkat cells. Conclusion The AQP5 genotype may influence survival following LPS by altering neutrophil cell migration. Trial registration DRKS00010437. Retrospectively registered 26 April 2016

Abstract	Introduction Previous studies demonstrated that the implementation of the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guideline-based bundle, consisting of different supportive measures in patients at high risk for acute kidney injury (AKI), might reduce rate and severity of AKI after surgery. However, the effects of the care bundle in broader population of patients undergoing surgery require confirmation.Methods and analysis The BigpAK-2 trial is an international, randomised, controlled, multicentre trial. The trial aims to enrol 1302 patients undergoing major surgery who are subsequently admitted to the intensive care or high dependency unit and are at high-risk for postoperative AKI as identified by urinary biomarkers (tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 2insulin like growth factor binding protein 7 (TIMP-2)IGFBP7)). Eligible patients will be randomised to receive either standard of care (control) or a KDIGO-based AKI care bundle (intervention). The primary endpoint is the incidence of moderate or severe AKI (stage 2 or 3) within 72 hours after surgery, according to the KDIGO 2012 criteria. Secondary endpoints include adherence to the KDIGO care bundle, occurrence and severity of any stage of AKI, change in biomarker values during 12 hours after initial measurement of (TIMP-2)*(IGFBP7), number of free days of mechanical ventilation and vasopressors, need for renal replacement therapy (RRT), duration of RRT, renal recovery, 30-day and 60-day mortality, intensive care unit length-of-stay and hospital length-of-stay and major adverse kidney events. An add-on study will investigate blood and urine samples from recruited patients for immunological functions and kidney damage.Ethics and dissemination The BigpAK-2 trial was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Medical Faculty of the University of Münster and subsequently by the corresponding Ethics Committee of the participating sites. A study amendment was approved subsequently. In the UK, the trial was adopted as an NIHR portfolio study. Results will ...
