| Sumario: | Abstract The specific cytokines that regulate pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) pathophysiology remains unclear. Here, we evaluated the respiratory cytokine profile in PARDS to identify the molecular signatures associated with severe disease. A multiplex suspension immunoassay was used to profile 45 cytokines, chemokines and growth factors. Cytokine concentrations were compared between severe and non-severe PARDS, and correlated with oxygenation index (OI). Partial least squares regression modelling and regression coefficient plots were used to identify a composite of key mediators that differentially segregated severe from non-severe disease. The mean (standard deviation) age and OI of this cohort was 5.2 (4.9) years and 17.8 (11.3), respectively. Early PARDS patients with severe disease exhibited a cytokine signature that was up-regulated for IL-12p70, IL-17A, MCP-1, IL-4, IL-1β, IL-6, MIP-1β, SCF, EGF and HGF. In particular, pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, MCP-1, IP-10, IL-17A, IL-12p70) positively correlated with OI early in the disease. Whereas late PARDS was characterized by a differential lung cytokine signature consisting of both up-regulated (IL-8, IL-12p70, VEGF-D, IL-4, GM-CSF) and down-regulated (IL-1β, EGF, Eotaxin, IL-1RA, and PDGF-BB) profiles segregating non-severe and severe groups. This cytokine signature was associated with increased transcription, T cell activation and proliferation as well as activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway that underpin PARDS severity. |
