Resumo

Objective: The aim of this systematic review to evaluate the effects and possible therapeutic relevance of interleukin-7, a novel immunoadjuvant agent, against sepsis. Data Sources: We have searched PubMed, Scopus, LILACS and SciELO for any study which had IL-7 as intervention for sepsis. Study Selection: For each source, a single author was chosen to select all studies based on title and abstract. The remaining two authors then proceeded to read the complete text for relevance assessment. Results: Eleven sources were retrieved, consisting of six studies performed on animals, four on ex vivo human cells, and a single clinical trial. Several parameters were evaluated and reported, such as improved animal survival (3 trials; n= 264); improved cell count, activation, cytokine secretion, proliferation and survival; and higher patient CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocyte count (1 trial; n= 27). Major limitations were the heterogeneity of studies and the complexity of sepsis presentation. Data Extraction: Any data related to IL-7 intervention in septic patients was extracted. Animal and in vitro data was chosen according to outcomes in either overall survival or immune response markers. The data extraction from each study was conducted by a single author and then revised by the other two. Bias was assessed by all three authors together, without any specific methodology. Conclusions: Although IL-7 as a potential therapy option for sepsis still requires further investigation and clinical evaluation, current studies show promising results of how the interleukin could act against the disorder.
