Increased CD4(+) T Cell Co-Inhibitory Immune Receptor CEACAM1 in Neonatal Sepsis and Soluble-CEACAM1 in Meningococcal Sepsis: A Role in Sepsis-Associated Immune Suppression?

The co-inhibitory immune receptor carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell-adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1) and its self-ligand CEACAM1 can suppress T cell function. Suppression of T cell function in sepsis is well documented. Late-onset neonatal sepsis in VLBW-infants was associated with an increased per...

Sumario:The co-inhibitory immune receptor carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell-adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1) and its self-ligand CEACAM1 can suppress T cell function. Suppression of T cell function in sepsis is well documented. Late-onset neonatal sepsis in VLBW-infants was associated with an increased percentage CEACAM1 positive CD4(+) T-cells. Meningococcal septic shock in children was associated with increased serum soluble CEACAM1. In conclusion our data demonstrate increased surface expression of the co-inhibitory immune receptor CEACAM1 in late-onset neonatal sepsis in VLBW-infants, and increased circulating soluble CEACAM1 in children with meningococcal sepsis. Increased T-cell CEACAM1 expression and increased circulating soluble CEACAM1 may contribute to sepsis-associated immune suppression.
