Overview
It is understood that hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS) is the result of microvascular endothelial cell damage characterized by thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) in renal glomeruli, gastrointestinal tract, brain and pancreas in all of which the main lesion is the thickening of vessel wall (mainly in capillaries and arterioles), microthrombi in platelets and obstruction of vessel lumen ( partial or complete). Loss of physiological resistance to thrombus formation, complement consumption, leukocyte adhesion to damaged endothelium, the abnormal release of von Willibrand Factor (vWF) and fragmentation, and increased vascular shear stress lead to further amplification of microangiopathy. Typical/ Shiga-toxin-associated hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is usually caused by E.Coli and serotype O157: H7 is most common while congenital predisposing conditions like complement factor abnormalities may play a role in recurrent and familial forms.[1]
Pathophysiology
Pathogenesis
- It is understood that hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS) is the result of microvascular endothelial cell damage characterized by thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) in renal glomeruli, gastrointestinal tract, brain and pancreas in all of which the main lesion is the thickening of vessel wall (mainly in capillaries and arterioles), microthrombi in platelets and obstruction of vessel lumen( partial or complete).
- Loss of physiological resistance to thrombus formation, complement consumption, leukocyte adhesion to damaged endothelium, the abnormal release of von Willibrand Factor (vWF) and fragmentation, and increased vascular shear stress lead to further amplification of microangiopathy.
- Congenital predisposing conditions like complement factor abnormalities may play a role in recurrent and familial forms.[1]
- Typical/ Shiga-toxin-associated hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is usually caused by E.Coli.
- Serotype O157: H7 is most commonly seen in the USA and Europe, although other serotypes less commonly associated include O26:H11, O103:H2, O121:H19, O145:NM and O111:NM. Other strains, especially O111:H-serotype is frequently found in other countries as well.
- EHEC produce several virulence factors including Shiga-Toxin and that gain access to the blood circulation after damaging the intestinal endothelium and later affect the target organs
- Pathogen is usually transmitted via the ingestion of undercooked ground meat to the human host.
- Following transmission/ingestion, the EHEC is assumed to bind to the small intestine followed by colonization of colon.[2]
- EHEC interacts with intestinal microflora as well as host hormonal response thus leading to the activation of several virulence factors including Shiga-Toxin (Stx) and others that enable attachment of pathogen to the instestinal epithelial cell and enhancing the mobility of flagella thus leading to induction of Stx which adheres to the endothelium of the intestine and lead to ulceration and hemorrhaging[3][4][5]
- Intestinal epithelial damage allows bacterial virulence factors to enter the circulation after which Stx in circulation binds to the platelets, neutrophils, and monocytes as well as to platelet-monocyte and platelet-neutrophils in complexes leading to tissue-factor (TF) expressing microparticle release.[6]
- Aggregates are formed between monocyte and platelets and also between neutrophils and platelets. Stx can also bind to the blood cells via G3b receptors in addition to other glycolipid receptors where as lipopolysaccharide or LPS binds via TLR-4 or Toll like receptor, which is in complex with CD62 on platelets.[7]
- Platelet activation lead to prothrombotic state and microthrombi lead to thrombocytopenia. In presence of a circulation with high resistance like renal microcirculations, these effects are enhanced. Other G3b expressing organs like including brain can also be affected.
- Stx induces cell death by inhibiting the protein synthesis or by apoptosis.[8]
- Neutrophils, monocytes and IgM-producing B lymphocytes show resistance to cytotoxic effects of shiga toxin. In macrophage-like THP-1 cells, both apoptotic and cell survival signaling pathways were activated after they were exposed to Shiga toxin-1, hence, most leukocytes being exposed to Shiga toxin will not undergo cell death, allowing the toxin to circulate bound to their cell membrane.[9]
- Endothelial cell damage of glomerular capillaries is the main feature in the pathogenesis of HUS.
- Stx exerts cytotoxic and apoptotic effects on glomerular endothelial and epithelial cells[10][11].
- The pathogenesis in complement mediated or atypical HUS may include complement mediated platelet activation and endothelial damage and usually have low complement levels.
Genetics
Mutations in the genes associated with atypical HUS can cause uncontrolled complement system activation which attacks endothelial cells leading to inflammation and thrombi formation and may lead to kidney injury and renal failure. Examples include:[12][13][14]
- Complement factor H (CFH) mutation/ factor H deficiency (autosomal dominant)
- Membrane co-factor protein deficiency (MCP; CD46)
- Factor B overactivity (Complement Factor B mutation)
- Diacylglycerol kinase epsilon gene mutations
- Factor I (IF) mutation
Other genetic conditions predisposing to atypical HUS include:
- Mutations in the MMACHC (methyl malonic aciduria and homocystinuria type C) gene[15]
- Genetic disorders of ADAMTS13[16]
Associated Conditions
Conditions associated with HUS include:
- Malignancy, cancer chemotherapy and ionizing radiation
- Calcineurin inhibitors and transplantation
- Pregnancy, HELLP syndrome, and oral contraceptive pill
- Systemic lupus erythematosus and antiphospholipid antibody syndrome
- Glomerulopathy
