Anti-aging factor, serum alpha-Klotho, as a marker of acute physiological stress, and a predictor of ICU mortality, in patients with septic shock.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:Genetic deletions decreasing serum alpha-Klotho (alpha-KL) have been associated with rapid aging, multi-organ failure and increased mortality in experimental sepsis. We hypothesized that lower alpha-KL obtained at the onset of septic shock correlates with higher mortality. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Prospective cohort of 104 adult patients with septic shock. Alpha-KL was measured via ELISA on serum collected on the day of enrollment (within 72h from the onset of shock). Relationship between alpha-KL and clinical outcome measures was evaluated in uni- and multi-variable models. RESULTS:Median (IQR) alpha-KL was 816 (1020.4) pg/mL and demonstrated a bimodal distribution with two distinct populations, Cohort A [n=97, median alpha-KL 789.3 (767.1)] and Cohort B [n=7, median alpha-KL 4365.1(1374.4), >1.5 IQR greater than Cohort A]. Within Cohort A, ICU non-survivors had significantly higher serum alpha-KL compared to survivors as well as significantly higher APACHE II and SOFA scores, rates of mechanical ventilation, and serum BUN, creatinine, calcium, phosphorus and lactate (all p≤0.05). Serum alpha-KL≥1005, the highest tertile, was an independent predictor of ICU mortality when controlling for co-variates (p=0.028, 95% CI 1.143-11.136). CONCLUSIONS:Elevated serum alpha-KL in patients with septic shock is independently associated with higher mortality. Further studies are needed to corroborate these findings.
