Abstract (original English)

Sepsis serves as a leading cause of admission to and death of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) and is described as a systemic inflammatory response syndrome caused by abnormal host response to infection. Adipose‑derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) have exhibited reliable and promising clinical application potential in multiple disorders. However, the function and the mechanism of ADSCs in sepsis remain elusive. In the present study, the crucial inhibitory effect of ADSC‑derived hydroxy‑carboxylic acid receptor 1 (HCAR1) on sepsis was identified. Reverse transcription quantitative‑PCR determined that the mRNA expression of HCAR1 was reduced while the mRNA expression of Toll‑like receptor 4 (TLR4), major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II), NOD‑like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3), and the levels of interleukin‑1β (IL‑1β), tumor necrosis factor‑α (TNF‑α), interleukin‑10 (IL‑10), and interleukin‑18 (IL‑18) were enhanced in the peripheral blood of patients with sepsis. The expression of HCAR1 was negatively correlated with TLR4 (r=‑0.666), MHC II (r=‑0.587), and NLRP3 (r=‑0.621) expression and the expression of TLR4 was positively correlated with NLRP3 (r=0.641), IL‑1β (r=0.666), TNF‑α (r=0.606), and IL‑18 (r=0.624) levels in the samples. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis revealed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of
