Glycocalyx disorders in critical conditions: pathophysiological and clinical aspects
https://doi.org/10.25789/YMJ.2024.85.20
Abstract
Aim: to evaluate the results of clinical studies devoted to the study of the role of endothelial glycocalyx (GC) in the pathogenesis of critical conditions.
Materials and Methods. Scientific information was searched in domestic (E-Library) and foreign databases (PubMed, Scopus, Oxford University Press, Springer, Web of Science Core Collection). 120 publications were analysed, 42 of them were selected to meet the requirements of the review.
Results. GC is a gel-like polysaccharide-protein layer covering the surface of vascular endothelial cells. GC maintains homeostasis of the vascular network, including controlling vascular permeability and microvascular tone, preventing microvascular thrombosis, and regulating leukocyte adhesion. Endothelial GC damage is a universal link of pathogenesis in various pathological processes. The proposed review considers the structure and functions of GC, its participation in the pathogenesis of such diseases as diabetes mellitus, sepsis, covid-19, poly- trauma, pre-eclampsia, epilepsy and others. A decrease in GC thickness in patients with diabe- tes mellitus has been described. The effect of hyperglycaemia on GC structure has also been noted. In sepsis, GC is damaged by free oxygen radicals, which are released by circulating leukocytes, which in turn triggers a cascade of reactions that lead to systemic oedema, hypovo- laemia with further development of organ and tissue damage. In severe trauma, damage to GC is noted, which is accompanied by the release of syndecan, heparan sulfate, hyaluronic acid into the bloodstream. Preeclampsia is also associated with GC damage, which can be detected by elevation of specific markers. Epilepsy and many other neurological diseases are associated with disruption of the blood-brain barrier, whose dysfunction is associated with GC dysfunction.
Conclusion. Timely diagnosis of GC degradation can improve life prognosis and therapeutic outcomes in critically ill patients.
