1 The true cost of inpatient obesity impact on inflammatory stress and morbidity. Professor Bob Grimble, Institute of Human Nutrition, Institute of Developmental Sciences Building, University of Southampton Medical School

2 One of the first indications that the immune system had a role in mortality from chronic diseases Serum albumin is a negative acute phase reactant and is reduced when levels of inflammatory stress become raised Phillips et al Lancet

3 The inflammatory response is purposeful, focussed, powerful and dangerous. The perfect response. -"And the lion and the lamb shall lie down together, but the lamb won't get much sleep." Woody Allen

4 Normal host response to trauma/infection/burns Immune system activation Pro-inflammatory cytokines T and B cells Oxidants Pathogen killing Tissue damage Hostile environment

5 Normal host response to trauma/infection/burns Pro-inflammatory cytokines Immune system activation Immunonutrition T and B cells Oxidants Glucose Pathogen killing Tissue damage Nutrient release from host tissues Glutamine Hostile environment Appetite loss

6 Normal host response to trauma/infection/burns Pro-inflammatory cytokines Immune system activation Immunonutrition Oxidants Antiox defence Glucose T and B cells Pathogen killing Hostile environment - Tissue damage Nutrient release from host tissues Appetite loss Sulphur amino acids Glutamine Glutathione synthesis Antioxidant defences strengthened

7 Normal host response to trauma/infection/burns Pro-inflammatory cytokines Oxidants Antiox defence Immune system activation - Feedback systems IL10, Heat shock proteins Glucose Immunonutrition T and B cells Pathogen killing Hostile environment - Tissue damage Nutrient release from host tissues Appetite loss Sulphur amino acids Glutamine Glutathione synthesis Antioxidant defences strengthened

8 The inflammatory response is designed so species can combat pathogens and survive injury Aggression Appropriate Inappropriate

9 Downside of the inflammatory response. The lamb gets a little stressed!

10 Inflammatory stimuli pathogens, environmental factors, damaged tissue Insulin insensitivity Pathogen killing Inflammation Hyperlipidemia

11 Inflammatory stimuli pathogens, environmental factors, damaged tissue Diabetes mellitus Insulin insensitivity Pathogen killing Inflammation Hyperlipidemia Atherosclerosis Mortality and morbidity Myocardial infarction

12 The human race is diverse and thus risk factors influencing the inflammatory response are diverse. What are the key variables which influence the strength and outcome of the response?

13 Key factors influencing inflammatory stress:- Poor anti-oxidant defences Polymorphisms (SNP) in cytokine genes Obesity Gender Aging

14 Key factors influencing inflammatory stress:- Poor anti-oxidant defences Polymorphisms (SNP) in cytokine genes Obesity Gender Aging

19 Key factors influencing inflammatory stress:- Poor anti-oxidant defences Polymorphisms (SNP) in cytokine genes Obesity Gender Aging

20 Polymorphisms in the promoter region of genes Single nucleotide base change From Father From Mother Bioactivity of normal increased greatly increased protein produced;

21 Cytokine gene polymorphisms associated with altered levels of production Polymorphism TNF-α -308 LT-α +252 IL-1β -511 IL IL Genotype associated with raised inflammatory stress or poor disease outcome TNF2 allele (A) TNFB2:2 (AA) TT G allele AA
