Abstract
OBJECTIVES
P-selectin participates in the development of inflammatory disorders. Cardiopulmonary bypass is thought to induce inflammatory response and increase nitric oxide production. To evaluate the role of P-selectin in bypass-induced inflammatory response and its association with nitric oxide production, we examined the effect of P-selectin monoclonal antibody in a rat model of cardiopulmonary bypass.
METHODS
Twenty adult Sprague-Dawley rats undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass for 60 minutes were divided into 2 groups. A 3-mg/kg dose of anti-rat specific P-selectin monoclonal antibody (ARP2-4; Sumitomo Pharmaceuticals, Osaka, Japan) was administered into the priming solution before bypass in group P (n = 10) and a 3-mg/kg dose of PNB1.6 (nonblocking monoclonal antibody) was added in group C for control (n = 10).
RESULTS
At the termination of bypass and 3 hours after the termination of bypass, plasma levels of interleukins 6 and 8, nitrate/nitrite, the percentage ratio of nitrotyrosine to tyrosine (an indicator of peroxynitrite formation), and the respiratory index were significantly higher than before bypass in both groups, and they were significantly lower in group P than in group C. Plasma P-selectin level in group C and exhaled nitric oxide concentration in both groups at termination of bypass were significantly lower than those before bypass, and they were significantly higher 3 hours after termination of bypass than before bypass in both groups. Plasma P-selectin level and exhaled nitric oxide concentration in group P were significantly higher than those in group C at the end of bypass, but they were significantly lower 3 hours after the termination of bypass.
CONCLUSIONS
These results demonstrate that P-selectin may participate in the augmentation of bypass-induced inflammatory response in association with nitric oxide and peroxynitrite production.
