Ammonia-induced astrocyte swelling and increased blood brain barrier permeability via transmembrane dysfunction are major mechanisms of cerebral edema in acute liver failure. Conventional therapy can be used to lower intracranial pressure. In addition, various treatment options are available to reduce serum ammonia level. Herein, we described the pathophysiology, monitoring, and management of cerebral edema in acute liver failure.

ATP가부족하게되면나트륨, 칼슘등의양이온이세포밖으로배출되지못한채지속적으로내부에축적되고, 이온균형을맞추기위해염소이온과같은음이온이유입되어세포내부의삼투압이증가하게된다. 10,11 증가된세포내부의삼투압으로인해 Aquaporin 통로를통해수분이유입되어세포내의부피가증가하고수포형태의표면변화가발생하면서부풀어오르다사멸하는것이세포독성부종이다. 11,12 급성간부전에서는세포독성부종의발생에암모니아가주 NH 4 + Glutamate Oxidative stress Mitochondria NH Glutamine Glutamine Glutamine transporter Figure 1.

3 Se Young Jang, et al. Pathophysiology and Treatment of Cerebral Edema in Acute Liver Failure (PAG) 에의해암모니아와글루탐산염으로다시분해되고이로인한산화스트레스가세포부종을유발한다는설명이유력하다 (Trojan Horse hypothesis, Fig. 1) 혈관뇌장벽의손상으로인한혈관성부종과거연구에서는급성간부전으로인한뇌부종의경우혈액뇌장벽의구조에는큰변화가없어주로세포독성부종에의한현상으로파악하였으나, 최근연구에서는치밀이음부 (tight junction) 를구성하는단백질의미세한기능변화와전신염증성사이토카인의영향으로인한혈액뇌장벽투과도의변화로인해혈관성부종이함께발생하는것으로밝혀졌다. 혈액뇌장벽은모세혈관내피세포및치밀이음부, 혈관주위세포 (pericyte), 별아교세포의발돌기로이루어져있으며이중내피세포와치밀이음부가장벽으로서의기능을하는데중요한역할을한다. 특히내피세포간치밀이음부에존재하는 occludin, claudin-5, junctional adhesion molecule (JAM), cadherin과같은여러가지의막경유단백들이세포주변통로 (paracellular path) 를통한물질의이동에관여한다. 급성간부전을유도한쥐의혈액뇌장벽을전자현미경으로관찰하였을때치밀이음부의구조적인변화는명확하지않으나여러다양한염색물질들의투과도는증가하는현상을관찰하였고이는구조적인변화보다는치밀이음부에존재하는막경유단백질의기능변화로인한현상으로판단하고있다. 특히급성간부전시에괴사한간세포로부터혈관내로유리되는 tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-1, interleukin-6 등염증성사이토카인이 Toll-like receptor 4/NF-kB 경로를활성화시켜치밀이음부단백의발현을억제하고 Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) 이치밀이음부에존재하는 occludin, claudin-5와같은단백질을분해함으로써혈액뇌장벽의투과도를증가시킨다 또한암모니아가 MMP-9의활성및활성산소 (reactive oxygen species), 산화질소 (nitric oxide) 의생성을증가시켜혈액뇌장벽의투과도를증가시키기도한다 뇌부종발생유무에대한평가및모니터급성간부전환자에서뇌부종발생을예측하는위험인자로는 3단계이상의간성뇌병증이발생한경우, 혈중암모니아수치가 100 umol/l를초과하는경우, 초급성으로간성뇌병증이발생하는경우, 전신성염증반응증후군 (sysmetic inflammatory response syndrome) 이동반된경우, 신대치요법이나승압제가필요한경우등이있다. 19,26 급성간부전으로인한간성뇌병증환자에서두통, 구토, 의식상태악화등과같은임상증상만으로는뇌부종발생여부를조기에진단하기에불충분하다. 혈압이갑자기상승하면서서맥및불규칙한호흡을보이는쿠싱반사, 동공반사및전정안구반사 (oculovestibular reflex) 의이상, 대뇌제거자세 (decerebrate posture) 역시뇌부종이진행된상태에서나타나므로조기진단에활용하기에는적절하지않다. 고위험환자에서시기적절한뇌부종의진단과치료를위해뇌컴퓨터단층촬영 (CT), 뇌자기공명영상 (MRI), 뇌혈류초음파 (TCD) 와같은뇌영상검사가필요하다. 뇌 CT를통해혈액응고장애로인해발생할수있는뇌출혈을배제할수있고뇌고랑소실, 뇌백질과회색질의경계소실, 뇌바닥수조의압박, 수두증을관찰함으로써뇌부종발생유무를평가할수있다. 27 뇌 MRI의확산강조영상을통해뇌부종의발생위치와정도를좀더민감하게확인할수있고겉보기확산계수 (apparent diffusion coefficient) 영상을통해세포독성부종과혈관성부종을감별할수있으나검사에시간이오래걸 Velocity, cm/s * Velocity, cm/s Time, second Time, second Figure 2.

4 리고장시간바로누운자세를유지해야하는위험이있다. 3 뇌혈류초음파는뇌혈관의자동조절능력이손상된상황에서는뇌혈류량이뇌압과비례한다는사실을근거로뇌혈류속도를측정해서간접적으로뇌압의변화양상을비침습적으로모니터할수있다. 뇌부종이발생하게되면가장먼저중대뇌동맥의수축기혈류속도가증가하다가점차뇌압이상승하면서혈류속도는감소하게되고박동지수 (pulsatility index) 는증가하게된다. 최대수축기혈류파형이날카로워지고뇌내혈관의탄성도가감소하면서혈관의탄성반동 (elastic recoil) 이소실됨으로인해수축기때의혈류파형이변화하게된다 (loss of the Windkessel notch, Fig. 2). 28 간이식이필요한 3, 4단계간성뇌병증환자및아세트아미노펜에의한급성간부전과같이간이식의적응증은아니나추후회복될여지가있는환자군에서는정확한두개내압측정과변동양상에대한빠른평가를위해두개내압측정카테터를이용한모니터가필요하며뇌실질내에직접삽입하는방법이가장정확하다. 29 응고병증이동반되어있는경우 INR 1.5 미만을유지하기위해신선냉동혈장 (fresh frozen plasma) 을먼저투여하고이후에도교정이되지않을경우에는재조합활성제 8인자 (recombinant factor VIIIa) 의투여를고려해보아야한다. 30 혈소판감소증이동반되어경우혈소판수를 100,000/μL 이상유지하기위해예방적인혈소판수혈후에시술을고려해야출혈의위험성을줄일수있다. 31 혈청내피브리노겐 (fibrinogen) 이 100 mg/dl 미만인경우에는동결침전제제 (cryoprecipitate) 를투여한이후에시술을고려해볼수있다. 목정맥팽대카테터를이용한정맥내산소포화도측정 (jugular bulb oximetry, SjvO 2 >80% indicates hyperemia, SjvO 2 <50% indicates insufficient oxygen supply), Licox 카테터를이용한뇌조직산소농도측정 (Pbto 2 <10 mmhg indicates tissue hypoxia), microdialysis를이용한뇌조직내에너지대사측정 (lactate/pyruvate ratio >40 indicates metabolic crisis) 이두개내압상승환자를집중관리하는데도움이될수있으나대부분의연구가외상성뇌손상환자를대상으로되어있어간부전에의한뇌부종환자에게적용하는데에는근거가부족한상태이다 급성간부전환자의내과적치료급성간부전환자에게는여러장기손상이동반될수가있는데심장기능및부신기능저하로인한혈역학적불안정및조직저관류, 폐기능저하로인한저산소혈증, 콩팥기능저하로인한복강내부종및위장관벽의부종, 면역기능저하로인한 감염증, 응고장애로인한출혈등이발생할수있다. 32 따라서급성간부전환자의치료는환자의대사와혈역학적안정을유지하여간의재생을돕고합병증을최소화하는것이근간이되겠다. 급성간부전에서는저혈당이호발하므로당을혈액내로주입하는것이필요하지만저나트륨혈증과뇌부종을악화시킬수있어저장성용액을대량주입하는것은피해야한다. 또한, 급성간부전상태에서는에너지가다량소모되고단백질이화작용 (protein catabolism) 이되므로적절한영양을공급하여환자의근육양과면역기능이유지되도록해야한다. 간성뇌병증이있는경우에는경구로 g/kg/day 가량의단백질을공급하고혈중암모니아수치를모니터링하면서양이과다하지않게조절한다. 33 간이식은급성간부전환자의생존율을개선시킬수있는확실한치료법이긴하나일반적으로환자의병세가매우급격하게진행하고공여간의확보가쉽지않아급성간부전환자의약 10% 에서만이루어진다고알려져있다. 34,35 특히, 뇌사자공여보다는생체부분간이식을시행할수밖에없는경우가많아환자가급성간부전으로진단되는즉시공여자를준비하고환자상태가악화되었을때응급으로간이식을시행할수있도록하는것이필요하다. 이번단락에서는급성간부전환자에서발생할수있는여러합병증중뇌부종과이로인한두개내압상승에대한치료방침에대해서자세히살펴보고자한다. 6. 급성간부전에서발생하는뇌부종의치료 1) 일반적인치료뇌부종조절의일반적인목표는뇌내압 20 mmhg 미만, 뇌관류압 60 mmhg 이상을유지하는것이며다른원인으로인한두개내압상승과비교하여기본적인치료방법에는큰차이가없다. 간성뇌병증과두개내압상승으로인해의식이저하된환자에서조기에빠른기관삽관을하고기계환기를적용하여저산소혈증을예방하고이산화탄소의농도를적절히유지해야한다 (PCO mmhg). 36 적절한수준의진정 (Ramsay sedation scale 3 5) 과통증조절, 뇌관류압이적절히유지되는범위내에서머리를 30도세워두는자세를유지함으로써두개내압을낮춰줄수있다. 36 그외발열및고혈당조절 ( 목표혈당 mg/dl), 저나트륨혈증에대한교정, 락툴로즈관장을통해혈중암모니아농도를떨어뜨리는치료가두개내압상승을줄여주는데도움이된다. 27 2) 약물치료삼투압요법으로가장많이쓰이는약물은만니톨과고장식 66

6 4) 실험적인치료법들급성간부전을유발한동물모델에서 minocycline의투여가 oxidative, nitrosative stress를줄임으로써간성혼수와뇌부종이악화되는것을막아주는역할을한다는보고가있으며, 49 N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) 수용체길항제인 memantine 이 NMDA 수용체를통해암모니아독성이발현되는것을억제함으로써뇌부종을줄여주었다는연구결과가있다. 50,51 그외혈장교환술을통해두개내압상승없이뇌관류압과뇌내산소대사율 (cerebral metabolic rate for oxygen, CMRO 2 ) 을증가시켜일부환자의의식상태를개선시켰으며면역시스템과내피세포기능을호전시켜간이식이부적합한환자의생존율을증가시킬수있다는주장도있다. 52 아세트아미노펜을이용해서급성간부전을유도한돼지모델에서내독소 (endotoxin) 를제거하고손상된알부민을대체해주는체외간기능보조기구 (extracorporeal liver support device) 를이용해서암모니아농도및염증성사이토카인의감소, 뇌압감소, 평균동맥압증가를통해생존율을증가시켰다는실험결과도보고된바가있다. 53 결론 급성간부전에서암모니아와글루탐산에의한별아교세포의팽윤과세포독성부종, 혈액뇌장벽의치밀이음부구조단백의미세기능변화로인한혈관성부종이뇌부종유발하여두개내압을상승시킨다. 뇌부종발생유무에대한모니터및치료는뇌의허혈손상이나재관류손상, 외상에의한뇌부종과근본적으로는동일하다. 그러나다른질환에의한뇌부종과달리동반된다발장기부전및감염증에의한혈역학적불안정에대한교정을통해적절한뇌관류압을유지하기위한노력, 두개내압상승에중요한역할을하는뇌내암모니아의농도를낮추기위한치료가중요하다. 또한기계환기시진정을위한약제사용이나저체온치료시떨림부작용을줄이기위한약제사용시간으로대사되는약제선택에제한이있다는점, 고농도의나트륨을이용한삼투압치료시용적과부하상태의악화가능성에대한고려가필요하다는차이점이있다.
