6. Scientific Basis for Quantitative PMN CD64 as an Improved Diagnostic Test of Infection/Sepsis PMN CD64 expression is negligible in the healthy state (<2,000 molecules per cell) - low false positive rate PMN CD64 expression becomes elevated under the influence of the inflammatory related cytokines, such as interferon-  (3-4 hrs), G-CSF (4-6 hrs), IL-12 Increased PMN CD64 expression results in enhanced antibody- mediated functional responses (phagocytosis, oxidative burst, bactericidal activity) in PMNs – pathophysiologically significant change during inflammation PMN CD64 becomes elevated in the presence of infection/sepsis –Final cytokine pathway effect at cellular level – barometer of “sickness” –Better performance than cell counts, left shift, and CRP High specificity - PMN CD64 expression is not elevated in: –Malignancy of myeloid cells (CML, MPD, MDS) –Any drug therapy (other than cytokines) –Clinical conditions with localized tissue damage (myocardial ischemia, uncomplicated surgery, and exercise injury) –Pregnancy –Auto-immune disorders (Rheumatoid Arthritis, Systemic Lupus Erythematosis)

In rheumatoid arthritis (RA), infection is not only one of the major complications but also one of the frequent causes of death. Use of biologic agents such as tumor necrosis factor-a blockers has been reported to increase the incidence of tuberculosis or opportunistic infections. We examined the utility of CD64 (FcgRI) expressed on neutrophils as a marker for detection of infection complicated with RA. METHODS: We measured the expression level of CD64 per neutrophil quantitatively by flow cytometry in 279 samples from 237 patients with RA with various levels of disease activity or types of infection, and in 52 samples from 36 controls including subjects with infection. RESULTS: CD64 expression was significantly higher among RA patients with infection (median 4156 molecules per neutrophil, interquartile range 2583-8587) than in those without infection (884, IQR 670-1262) (p < or = 0.001). The sensitivity of CD64 on neutrophils for the diagnosis of infection (using a cutoff value of 2000 molecules per cell) was 92.7% and specificity was 96.5%. CD64 expression was not affected by the disease activity of RA or the use of corticosteroids, disease modifying antirheumatic drugs, and biologic agents. CD64 was upregulated in infection by bacteria, viruses, fungi, and mycobacteria. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that quantitative measurement of CD64 expression on neutrophils can be used as a sensitive and specific marker to detect infection complicating RA.

Neutrophil CD64 expression and serum IL-8: Sensitive early markers of severity and outcome in sepsis Olga Livaditi, Anastasia Kotanidou, Aikaterini Psarra, Ioanna Dimopoulou, Christina Sotiropoulou, Kallirroi Augustatou, Chryssa Papasteriades, Apostolos Armaganidis, Charis Roussos, Stylianos E.

Available online 27 March 2007. Abstract The aim of the present study was to investigate which biomarker/s reliably assess severity and mortality early in the sepsis process. In 47 critically-ill patients within the 24 h of septic onset, Interleukins (IL)-8, -1β, -6, -10, and -12p70, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were measured in serum. Additionally, CD64 expression was measured in neutrophils. In early sepsis, neutrophil CD64 expression and IL-8 levels are the only biomarkers that increased with sepsis severity, differentiating disease stages: sepsis, severe sepsis and septic shock (p < 0.001). The biomarkers that best evaluate the severity of sepsis (via APACHE II) were CD64, IL-8 and IL-6 (p < 0.01), and the severity of organ failure (via SOFA) were CD64 and IL-8 (p < 0.01). CD64 expression and IL-8 levels were associated with mortality within 28-days (OR = 1.3, p = 0.01 for CD64 and OR = 1.26, p = 0.024 for IL-8 by logistic regression analysis) and ROC curve analysis showed high sensitivity and specificity for predicting sepsis stages and the 28 day mortality. We conclude that there is an early increase of neutrophil CD64 expression and IL-8 levels during sepsis. Based on this single measurement it is possible to reliably assess the stage, detect the severity and predict the 28-day mortality of sepsis.

24. Monocytes serve as an internal positive control (monocytes normally have moderate levels of CD64) Software will alert user if monocyte gate has a CD64 index less than 3.00, which may indicate need for gate adjustment or failure to add proper antibody volume (reagent A).
