Circulating levels of a soluble form of receptor for advanced glycation end products and high-mobility group box chromosomal protein 1 in patients with acute pancreatitis

To study in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) the plasma soluble form of the receptor for advanced glycation end products (sRAGE) and high-mobility group box chromosomal protein 1 (HMGB1) levels, followed-up for 12 days after hospitalization, in relation to the occurrence of organ failure and mo...

Zusammenfassung:To study in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) the plasma soluble form of the receptor for advanced glycation end products (sRAGE) and high-mobility group box chromosomal protein 1 (HMGB1) levels, followed-up for 12 days after hospitalization, in relation to the occurrence of organ failure and mortality. Thirty-eight patients with severe AP and organ failure (grade 2). A control group (127 patients) consisted of 38 patients with severe AP without organ failure (grade 1) and 89 patients with mild AP (grade 0). Plasma samples for determination of HMGB1 and sRAGE levels were collected on admission and on days 1 and 2, days 3 and 4, and days 7 and 12 after admission. The median of the highest sRAGE levels was higher in grade 2 patients (472 pg/mL; interquartile range [IQR], 259-912) than in grade 0 plus grade 1 patients (349 pg/mL; IQR, 209-544; P = 0.024). Among the patients with detectable HMGB1, the median of the highest HMGB1 levels was 117 ng/mL (IQR, 56-212; n = 24) in grade 2 patients and 87 ng/mL (IQR, 54-161; n = 62) in grade 0 plus grade 1 patients (P = 0.310). We demonstrate that sRAGE level, but not HMGB1 level, is significantly higher in AP patients who develop organ failure than in AP patients without organ failure who recover.
