Correlation between Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) Expression and Primary Graft Dysfunction Following Human Lung Transplantation. Cells 2022; 11:3420. [PMID: 36359815 PMCID: PMC9656095 DOI: 10.3390/cells11213420] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2022] [Revised: 10/19/2022] [Accepted: 10/28/2022] [Indexed: 09/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is characterized by alveolar epithelial and vascular endothelial damage and inflammation, lung edema and hypoxemia. Up to one-third of recipients develop the most severe form of PGD (Grade 3; PGD3). Animal studies suggest that neutrophils contribute to the inflammatory process through neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) release (NETosis). NETs are composed of DNA filaments decorated with granular proteins contributing to vascular occlusion associated with PGD. The main objective was to correlate NETosis in PGD3 (n = 9) versus non-PGD3 (n = 27) recipients in an exploratory study. Clinical data and blood samples were collected from donors and recipients pre-, intra- and postoperatively (up to 72 h). Inflammatory inducers of NETs' release (IL-8, IL-6 and C-reactive protein [CRP]) and components (myeloperoxidase [MPO], MPO-DNA complexes and cell-free DNA [cfDNA]) were quantified by ELISA. When available, histology, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence techniques were performed on lung biopsies from donor grafts collected during the surgery to evaluate the presence of activated neutrophils and NETs. Lung biopsies from donor grafts collected during transplantation presented various degrees of vascular occlusion including neutrophils undergoing NETosis. Additionally, in recipients intra- and postoperatively, circulating inflammatory (IL-6, IL-8) and NETosis biomarkers (MPO-DNA, MPO, cfDNA) were up to 4-fold higher in PGD3 recipients compared to non-PGD3 (p = 0.041 to 0.001). In summary, perioperative elevation of NETosis biomarkers is associated with PGD3 following human lung transplantation and these biomarkers might serve to identify recipients at risk of PGD3 and initiate preventive therapies.

Abstract
Extracorporeal circulation (ECC) systems, including cardiopulmonary bypass, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation have been an irreplaceable part of the cardiothoracic surgeries, and treatment of critically ill patients with respiratory and/or cardiac failure for more than half a century. During the recent decades, the concept of extracorporeal circulation has been extended to isolated machine perfusion of the donor organ including thoracic organs (ex-situ organ perfusion, ESOP) as a method for dynamic, semi-physiologic preservation, and potential improvement of the donor organs. The extracorporeal life support systems (ECLS) have been lifesaving and facilitating complex cardiothoracic surgeries, and the ESOP technology has the potential to increase the number of the transplantable donor organs, and to improve the outcomes of transplantation. However, these artificial circulation systems in general have been associated with activation of the inflammatory and oxidative stress responses in patients and/or in the exposed tissues and organs. The activation of these responses can negatively affect patient outcomes in ECLS, and may as well jeopardize the reliability of the organ viability assessment, and the outcomes of thoracic organ preservation and transplantation in ESOP. Both ECLS and ESOP consist of artificial circuit materials and components, which play a key role in the induction of these responses. However, while ECLS can lead to systemic inflammatory and oxidative stress responses negatively affecting various organs/systems of the body, in ESOP, the absence of the organs that play an important role in oxidant scavenging/antioxidative replenishment of the body, such as liver, may make the perfused organ more susceptible to inflammation and oxidative stress during extracorporeal circulation. In the present manuscript, we will review the activation of the inflammatory and oxidative stress responses during ECLP and ESOP, mechanisms involved, clinical implications, and the interventions for attenuating these responses in ECC.

Abstract
Objective: This study aims to investigate the effect of optimized ultrafiltration on perioperative electrolytes, acid-base balance, and pulmonary function during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in infants with low body weight (under 10 kg), using traditional balanced ultrafiltration and modified ultrafiltration. Methods: A total of 30 children who underwent surgical correction for congenital heart disease in Changzhou Children's Hospital between January 2018 and December 2019 were randomly divided into two groups. In the treatment group, ultrafiltration pre-treatment was carried out with blood-containing priming fluid prior to CPB. Balanced ultrafiltration was performed during the operation, and optimized and modified ultrafiltration were conducted before closing and extubation. In the control group, traditional balanced ultrafiltration was used during the operation, and a modified ultrafiltration combination was used before closing and extubation. Indexes such as blood gas analysis and electrolytes were measured perioperatively, and pulmonary function was observed. Results: No deaths were reported in either group. The ventilator-assisted breathing time was shorter in the treatment group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The indexes of the treatment group were closer than those of the control group to the optimal physiological values. The concentrations of potassium ion (K+), lactate (Lac), and blood glucose (Glu) decreased, and there was significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.05) at the end of CPB. Hemoglobin (Hb) and hematocrit (HCT) in the treatment group increased (P < 0.01). Alveolar-arterial differences for oxygen (A-aDO2) and respiratory index (RI) increased significantly in both groups after operation. Children in the treatment group began to recover lung function earlier than children in the control group. Both A-aDO2 and RI were lower in the treatment group than in the control group at each time point after operation (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Optimizing and modifying the traditional ultrafiltration combination method can effectively shorten the ultrafiltration time, reduce the adverse impacts of the ultrafiltration technique, and improve the lung function of infants after operation.

Abstract
Cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) generates severe inflammatory reactions secondary to hemodilution and surgical stress. This study was
conducted to evaluate whether modified ultrafiltration (MUF) could be performed safely and to clarify its effects during mitral valve repair in dogs in terms of
hemodilution and the status of inflammatory cytokines. We retrospectively studied 38 dogs with mitral valve disease who underwent MUF immediately after mitral
valve repair under CPB. To determine the effect of MUF, we measured the pre- and post-MUF blood dilution and blood cytokine levels. The levels of red blood
cells, hematocrit (HCT), and albumin were significantly increased after MUF, whereas interleukin (IL)-6 levels were significantly increased from 24.3 (range
9.6–54.6) to 32.3 (15.9–65.1) pg/ml. The levels of IL-8 and IL-10 declined significantly after MUF, from 368.2 (246.1–669.4)
and 45.4 (28.6–76.1) to 272.2 (174.1–414.4) and 28.8 (18.8–44.5) pg/ml, respectively. Our results demonstrated that MUF can be
applied in dogs undergoing CPB and is effective in achieving hemoconcentration. Moreover, MUF may be useful for the removal of cytokines. Further studies are
needed to validate these findings and clarify the effects of inflammatory cytokines after CPB.

Abstract
Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) encompasses a wide range of extracorporeal modalities that offer short- and intermediate-term mechanical support to the failing heart or lung. Apart from the daily use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in the operating room, there has been a resurgence of interest and utilization of veno-arterial and veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA- and VV-ECMO, respectively) and extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) in recent years. This might be attributed to the advancement in technology, nonetheless the morbidity and mortality associated with the clinical application of this technology is still significant. The initiation of ECLS triggers a systemic inflammatory response, which involves the activation of the coagulation cascade, complement systems, endothelial cells, leukocytes, and platelets, thus potentially contributing to morbidity and mortality. This is due to the release of cytokines and other biomarkers of inflammation, which have been associated with multiorgan dysfunction. On the other hand, ECLS can be utilized as a therapy to halt the inflammatory response associated with critical illness and ICU therapeutic intervention, such as facilitating ultra-protective mechanical ventilation. In addition to addressing the impact on outcome of the relationship between inflammation and ECLS, two different but complementary pathophysiological perspectives will be developed in this review: ECLS as the cause of inflammation and ECLS as the treatment of inflammation. This framework may be useful in guiding the development of novel therapeutic strategies to improve the outcome of critical illness.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is a frequent condition in critically ill patients, especially if exposed to extracorporeal circulation, and it is associated with worse outcomes and increased mortality. The inflammation triggered by the contact of blood with a non-endogenous surface, the use of high volumes of packed red blood cells and platelets transfusion, the risk of hyperoxia and the impairment of antioxidation systems contribute to the increase of reactive oxygen species and the imbalance of the redox system. This is responsible for the increased production of superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl radicals, and peroxynitrite resulting in increased lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation, and DNA damage. The understanding of the pathophysiologic mechanisms leading to redox imbalance would pave the way for the future development of preventive approaches. This review provides an overview of the clinical impact of the oxidative stress during neonatal extracorporeal support and concludes with a brief perspective on the current antioxidant strategies, with the aim to focus on the potential oxidative stress-mediated cell damage that has been implicated in both short and long-term outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has proven to be a robust predictor of mortality in a wide range of cardiovascular diseases. This study investigated the predictive value of the NLR in patients supported by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) systems. METHODS This study included 107 patients who underwent ECMO implantation for cardiogenic shock. Median preoperative NLR was used to divide the cohort, with Group 1 NLR <14.2 and Group 2 with NLR ≥14.2. Survival, the primary outcome, was compared between groups. RESULTS The study cohort was composed of 64 (60%) males with an average age 53.1 ± 14.9 years. Patients in Group 1 had an average NLR of 7.5 ± 3.5 compared to 27.1 ± 19.9 in Group 2. Additionally, those in Group 2 had significantly higher preoperative blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and age. Survival analysis indicated a thirty-day survival of 56.2%, with significantly worsened mortality in patients with NLR greater than 14.2, p=0.047. DISCUSSION Our study shows the NLR has prognostic value in patients undergoing ECMO implantation. Leukocytes are known contributors to myocardial damage and neutrophil infiltration is associated with damage caused by myocardial ischemia.

Abstract
Background One-lung ventilation (OLV) is a ventilation procedure used for pulmonary resection which may results in lung injury. The aim of this study was to evaluate the local inflammatory cytokine response from the dependent lung after OLV and its correlation to VT. The secondary aim was to evaluate the clinical outcome of each patient. Methods Twenty-eight consecutive patients were enrolled. Ventilation was delivered in volume-controlled mode with a VT based on predicted body weight (PBW). 5 cmH2O positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and FiO2 0.5 were applied. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was performed in the dependent lung before and after OLV. The levels of pro-inflammatory interleukins (IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), endothelial growth factor (EGF), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and anti-inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukins (IL-2, IL-4, IL-10) and interferon (IFN-γ), were evaluated. Subgroup analysis: to analyze the VT setting during OLV, all patients were ventilated within a range of 5-10 mL/kg. Thirteen patients, classified as a conventional ventilation (CV) subgroup, received 8-10 mL/kg, while 15 patients, classified as a protective ventilation (PV) subgroup, received 5-7 mL/kg. Results Cytokine BAL levels after surgery showed no significant increase after OLV, and no significant differences were recorded between the two subgroups. The mean duration of OLV was 64.44±21.68 minutes. No postoperative respiratory complications were recorded. The mean length of stay was for 4.00±1.41 days in the PV subgroup and 4.45±2.07 days in the CV group; no statistically significant differences were recorded between the two subgroups (P=0.511). Conclusions Localized inflammatory cytokine response after OLV was not influenced by the use of different VT. Potentially, the application of PEEP in both ventilation strategies and the short duration of OLV could prevent postoperative complications.

Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a technology capable of providing short-term mechanical support to the heart, lungs or both. Over the last decade, the number of centres offering ECMO has grown rapidly. At the same time, the indications for its use have also been broadened. In part, this trend has been supported by advances in circuit design and in cannulation techniques. Despite the widespread adoption of extracorporeal life support techniques, the use of ECMO remains associated with significant morbidity and mortality. A complication witnessed during ECMO is the inflammatory response to extracorporeal circulation. This reaction shares similarities with the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and has been well-documented in relation to cardiopulmonary bypass. The exposure of a patient’s blood to the non-endothelialised surface of the ECMO circuit results in the widespread activation of the innate immune system; if unchecked this may result in inflammation and organ injury. Here, we review the pathophysiology of the inflammatory response to ECMO, highlighting the complex interactions between arms of the innate immune response, the endothelium and coagulation. An understanding of the processes involved may guide the design of therapies and strategies aimed at ameliorating inflammation during ECMO. Likewise, an appreciation of the potentially deleterious inflammatory effects of ECMO may assist those weighing the risks and benefits of therapy.

Abstract
The signaling pathway for tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and its receptors is up-regulated during extracorporeal circulation (ECC), and recruits blood neutrophil into the lung tissue, which results in acute lung injury (ALI). In this study, we evaluated the role of tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) in ECC-induced ALI by blocking TNF-α binding to TNFR1 with CAY10500. Anesthetized Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were pretreated intravenously with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) or vehicle (0.3 ml ethanol IV) or CAY10500, and then underwent ECC for 2 h. The oxygenation index (OI) and pulmonary inflammation were assessed after ECC. OI was significantly decreased, while TNF-α and neutrophil in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and plasma TNF-α increased after ECC. Pretreatment of CAY10500 decreased plasma TNF-α level, but did not decrease TNF-α levels and neutrophil counts in BALF or improve OI. Lung histopathology showed significant alveolar congestion, infiltration of the leukocytes in the airspace, and increased thickness of the alveolar wall in all ECC-treated groups. CAY10500 pretreatment slightly reduced leukocyte infiltration in lungs, but did not change the wet/dry ratio in the lung tissue. Blocking TNF-α binding to TNFR1 by CAY10500 intravenously slightly mitigates pulmonary inflammation, but cannot improve the pulmonary function, indicating the limited role of TNFR1 pathway in circulating inflammatory cell in ECC-induced ALI.

The preventative role of curcumin on the lung inflammatory response induced by cardiopulmonary bypass in rats. J Surg Res 2010; 174:73-82. [PMID: 21324484 DOI: 10.1016/j.jss.2010.12.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2010] [Revised: 11/16/2010] [Accepted: 12/01/2010] [Indexed: 01/23/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute lung injury is a frequent complication after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Recent studies have reported that NF-κB plays an important role in the pathogenesis of post-CPB pulmonary dysfunction. Several signaling pathways, including the TLR4 pathway, induce NF-κB leading to an inflammatory response. We designed this study to determine whether or not curcumin inhibits TLR4 and MyD88 protein levels and ameliorates lung inflammatory injury in a rat CPB model. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into the following five groups (n = 12): sham; control (CPB); vehicle; low-dose curcumin (L-Cur); and high-dose curcumin (H-Cur). The percutaneous beating heart CPB model of rat was established. Animals were pretreated with a single intraperitoneal injection of vehicle, L-Cur (50 mg/kg), or H-Cur (200 mg/kg) 2 h prior to CPB. Blood were sampled at various time points, then lung tissues and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were harvested 24 h after CPB. RESULTS CPB induced a marked increase in the concentrations of interleukin-8, tumor necrosis factor-α, and matrix metalloproteinase-9 in plasma, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and lung tissues (P < 0.05 versus sham group), whereas curcumin pretreatment reduced these inflammatory markers. Curcumin had effective inhibitory effects on the expression of TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB in lung tissues 24 h post-CPB (P < 0.05 versus vehicle group). Administration of curcumin remarkably decreased the lung injury score (L-Cur versus vehicle group, P = 0.024; H-Cur versus vehicle group, P = 0.013). CONCLUSIONS Curcumin may be an alternative therapy for protecting CPB-induced lung injury by suppressing the expression of inflammatory cytokines. This anti-inflammatory effect of curcumin is partly related to the inhibition of TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB.

Transfusion-free neonatal cardiopulmonary bypass using a TinyPump. Ann Thorac Surg 2010; 90:1615-21.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We devised a miniaturized circuit incorporating a TinyPump in the venous line to amplify the venous return. We compared this system to the conventional blood-primed circuit and investigated whether this circuit could maintain hematocrit levels without blood transfusion and reduce coagulation and inflammatory cascades. METHODS Thirteen 1-week-old piglets (3.7 ± 0.2 kg) were divided into group M (miniaturized circuits with TinyPump-assisted venous drainage without blood, n = 7) and group C (conventional circuits with blood priming, n = 6). Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was performed at 150 to 180 mL·kg(-1)·min(-1) for 2 hours, including 60 minutes of cardioplegic cardiac arrest. Modified ultrafiltration (MUF) was subsequently performed. Data were acquired before CPB and after the end of MUF. RESULTS The priming volume including the hemofilter circuit of the main circuit required 152 mL in group M and 300 mL in group C. The mean hematocrit values in group M and group C were not significantly different during CPB (21.5% ± 2.0% versus 23.2% ± 1.3%) or after MUF (30.7% ± 2.1% versus 32.9% ± 4.0%). After MUF, group M had lower thrombin-antithrombin complex levels (16.7 ± 5.0 ng/mL versus 28.4 ± 8.4 ng/mL, p < 0.01) and interleukin-8 levels (2,867 ± 758 pg/mL versus 13,730 ± 5,220 pg/mL, p < 0.01) than group C. The pulmonary vascular resistance index was lower in group M after MUF (4,105 ± 862 dynes·cm(-5)·kg(-1) versus 6,304 ± 1,477 dynes·cm(-5)·kg(-1), p < 0.01). The lung water content was also better in group M (83.7% ± 0.5% versus 84.9% ± 0.5%, p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS The minicircuit with TinyPump-assisted venous drainage successfully maintained acceptable hematocrit levels and the cardiopulmonary function in neonatal piglets. Employing this technique may attenuate blood requirements and inflammatory responses, thereby improving the clinical outcomes of neonatal open-heart surgery.

Abstract
Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) has been implicated as a cause of acute lung injury (ALI) in cardiac surgical patients. We used a bronchoscopic microsampling (BMS) probe to examine alveolar biochemical constituents and evaluated the effect of sivelestat sodium hydrate, a novel synthesized polymorphonuclear (PMN) neutrophil elastase inhibitor, on ALI induced by CPB. Twelve patients undergoing aortic valve replacement were treated with either sivelestat 0.2 mg/kg/h (sivelestat group, n=6) or 0.9% saline (control group, n=6) from the start of surgery. Samples were collected by the BMS probe at three time points: after tracheal intubation, 1 h after CPB introduction, and 3 h after CPB termination. Pulmonary function was assessed perioperatively. There were no differences in baseline characteristics. The concentration of PMN elastase was significantly suppressed in the sivelestat group, compared with the control group (P=0.001). The sivelestat group also had lower levels of interleukin-6 and interleukin-8. Alveolar-arterial oxygen difference markedly increased, and a worsening of the PaO(2)/FiO(2) ratio indicated severe impairment after CPB. However, sivelestat attenuated the pattern of physiological deterioration of gas exchange. Sivelestat may attenuate neutrophil elastase or proinflammatory cytokines, and improve pulmonary dysfunction in patients undergoing CPB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) may cause acute lung injury leading to increased morbidity and mortality after cardiac surgery. Preconditioning by inhaled carbon monoxide reduces pulmonary inflammation during CPB. We hypothesized that inhaled carbon monoxide mediates its anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective effects during CPB via induction of pulmonary heat shock proteins (Hsps). METHODS Pigs were randomized either to a control group, to standard CPB, to carbon monoxide+CPB, or to quercetin (a flavonoid and unspecific inhibitor of the heat shock response)+control, to quercetin+CPB, and to quercetin+carbon monoxide+CPB. In the carbon monoxide groups, lungs were ventilated with 250 ppm carbon monoxide in addition to standard ventilation before CPB. At various time points, lung biopsies were obtained and pulmonary Hsp and cytokine concentrations determined. RESULTS Haemodynamic parameters were largely unaffected by CPB, carbon monoxide inhalation, or administration of quercetin. Compared with standard CPB, carbon monoxide inhalation significantly increased the pulmonary expression of the Hsps 70 [27 (SD 3) vs 69 (10) ng ml(-1) at 120 min post-CPB, P<0.05] and 90 [0.3 (0.03) vs 0.52 (0.05) after 120 min CPB, P<0.05], induced the DNA binding of heat shock factor-1, reduced interleukin-6 protein expression [936 (75) vs 320 (138) at 120 min post-CPB, P<0.001], and decreased CPB-associated lung injury (assessed by lung biopsy). These carbon monoxide-mediated effects were inhibited by quercetin. CONCLUSIONS As quercetin, a Hsp inhibitor, reversed carbon monoxide-mediated pulmonary effects, we conclude that the anti-inflammatory and protective effects of preconditioning by inhaled carbon monoxide during CPB in pigs are mediated by an activation of the heat shock response.

Abstract
PURPOSE In infants undergoing surgery for cardiac defects with left-to-right shunt, a hyperventilation strategy has been applied to prevent pulmonary hypertensive crisis (PHC). Hyperventilation with a large tidal volume and/or higher airway pressure, however, may be detrimental to the lung. This randomized study compared the effects of hyperventilation versus standard ventilation. METHODS We enrolled 22 infants with a preoperative pulmonary-to-systemic blood pressure ratio of more than 0.7. Hyperventilation, with a tidal volume of 10-12 ml x kg(-1) to keep Pa(CO2) between 30 and 35 mmHg, was randomly applied in 11 patients for 16 h or more. The other 11 patients were randomly assigned to standard ventilation, with a 6- to 8- ml x kg(-1) tidal volume. RESULTS The peak inspiratory pressure was higher (20 +/- 3 vs 18 +/- 2 cmH2O; P = 0.018), and Pa(CO2) (34 +/- 5 vs 42 +/- 7 mmHg; P = 0.003) and positive end-expiratory pressure (3 +/- 0 vs 5 +/- 0; P < 0.0001) were significantly lower in the hyperventilation than in the standard ventilation group. The Pa(CO2)/inspiratory fraction of oxygen Pa(CO2) ratio decreased from 244 +/- 160 mmHg at the onset of postoperative ventilation, to 177 +/- 96 mmHg at 24 h (P = 0.038) in the hyperventilation group, versus a decrease from 240 +/- 89 to 220 +/- 97 mmHg in the standard ventilation group not significant (NS). Serum interleukin (IL)-6 level, measured at 24 h postoperatively, was significantly lower (P = 0.02) in the standard ventilation than in the hyperventilation group, suggesting an attenuated postoperative systemic inflammatory response. A single patient in each group developed PHC. CONCLUSION Hyperventilation may cause lung injury and systemic inflammation in infants with pulmonary hypertension undergoing corrective heart surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Current data suggest that individual genetic predisposition may influence the magnitude of cytokine response and the degree of organ dysfunction after cardiopulmonary bypass. Lipoprotein lipase S447X polymorphism has been shown to be protective against atherosclerosis. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of lipoprotein lipase S447X polymorphism on cytokine release and early outcome after cardiopulmonary bypass. METHODS Forty patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass were included. Genotyping for lipoprotein lipase S447X polymorphism was performed by polymerase chain reaction. Levels of interleukins 6 and 8 were measured before induction and 6, 24, and 72 hours after operation by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Clinical data were collected prospectively. Daily assessment of organ dysfunction was done according to the cardiac surgery scoring (CASUS) system. RESULTS The allele frequency of lipoprotein lipase S447X stop codon was 17.5%. S447X carriers revealed significantly lower interleukin 8 levels at the sixth and 24th postoperative hours than the noncarrier group (P = .005 and P = .041, respectively). Patients in the S447X carrier group had significantly shorter ventilation times than the noncarrier group (P = .048). Also, the S447X carrier group revealed significantly lower postoperative 6-hour lactate levels, operative day, and postoperative day 1 organ dysfunction scores than the other group (P = .001, .005 and .002, respectively). CONCLUSION Lipoprotein lipase S447X stop codon mutation is associated with lower levels of interleukin 8 after coronary artery bypass grafting. Identification of high-risk patients for cardiopulmonary bypass-related systemic inflammation by detecting lipoprotein lipase S447X stop codon polymorphism may improve early postoperative outcome, especially in patients with limited organ reserves.

Abstract
This study was conducted to compare the effects of atorvastatin plus aspirin combined therapy on inflammatory responses, endothelial cell function, and blood coagulation system in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) to aspirin monotherapy. The patients were randomized into atorvastatin plus aspirin combined therapy group and aspirin monotherapy group. Reduced total cholesterol in the combined therapy group was found in a short term of medication for 14 days. On postoperative day (POD)-14, inhibitory effects of the combined therapy on whole blood aggregation as well as platelet activation assessed by flow cytometry were stronger than those of the monotherapy. Furthermore, cytokine, cytokine receptors, c-reactive protein and alpha1-acid glycoprotein in the combined therapy group were down-regulated on POD-14. At the same time, circulating levels of thromboxane A(2), vascular endothelial growth factor and thrombin-antithrombin III complex as well as P-selectin, L-selectin and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 were down-regulated, while E-selectin and transforming growth factor-beta1 was up-regulated. Atorvastatin plus aspirin combined therapy may improve inflammatory responses, accelerated platelet function, vascular endothelial cell function, blood coagulation system at the early stage such as 14th day after CABG. In conclusion, atorvastatin and aspirin combined therapy may bring beneficial effects to the patient after CABG.

Abstract
RATIONALE Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) causes pulmonary inflammatory reaction. Liquid ventilation with perfluorocarbon has shown an anti-inflammatory effect on severely injured lungs. The aim of this study is to investigate the treatment effect of different ventilation modes with perfluorocarbon on pulmonary inflammatory reaction in piglets after CPB. METHODS After receiving CPB and subsequent infusion of lipopolysaccharide (1 microg/kg), 18 piglets were randomly treated with conventional gas ventilation, total liquid ventilation (TLV), or partial liquid ventilation (PLV) for 240 min. The lung tissue and blood samples were collected at the end of observation period. The pulmonary mRNA expressions and plasmatic concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) were measured. Histological neutrophil count in lung parenchyma was performed. RESULTS Hemodynamics, PaCO2 and PH did not differ among groups during the observation period. Both TLV and PLV showed significantly improved oxygenation, reduced pulmonary mRNA expressions and plasmatic levels of IL-6 and IL-8, and decreased total neutrophil count in lung parenchyma when compared with conventional gas ventilation. Furthermore, TLV resulted in significantly better oxygenation, lower pulmonary mRNA expressions of IL-6 and IL-8, and less total neutrophil count when compared with PLV. CONCLUSION Both TLV and PLV improved oxygenation and reduced pulmonary inflammatory reaction in piglets after CPB, whereas TLV is more effective than PLV.

Abstract
This study tested the effects of the antioxidant pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate on acute lung injury induced by cardiopulmonary bypass in rats. Adult rats were randomly divided into 3 groups of 7 each. The study group was pretreated with pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate before undergoing 60 min of normothermic partial cardiopulmonary bypass, a control group underwent cardiopulmonary bypass only, and a third group underwent a sham operation involving anesthesia and cannulation only. The respiratory index at 60 min after terminating bypass was significantly increased in the study group only. Neutrophil, malondialdehyde, interleukin-8, nuclear factor-kappaB, and protein levels in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from the cardiopulmonary bypass group were significantly higher than those in the other two groups, with marked inflammatory changes on lung histopathology. It was concluded that cardiopulmonary bypass can directly induce acute lung injury, and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate attenuates this injury by inhibiting nuclear factor-kappaB activity.

Abstract
Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is believed to cause postoperative lung dysfunction. To more closely examine the inflammatory processes occurring in the airways during CPB, we serially measured inflammatory mediators, with the assistance of a new bronchoscopic microsample probe, in 11 patients undergoing repair of aortic arch aneurysms. Epithelial lining fluid (ELF) and arterial blood were sampled simultaneously after induction of anesthesia, at the time of pulmonary reperfusion, and at the end of surgery. A decrease in the PaO2/FiO2 ratio was observed at the end of surgery (P = 0.029). Although the ELF concentrations of interleukin (IL)-8, IL-6, and neutrophil elastase had increased significantly at the end of surgery (median = 23,200, 1818, and 12,900 microg/mL, respectively), they did not correlate with the degree of hypoxemia. Neutrophil elastase increased significantly at the time of pulmonary reperfusion, before IL-8 and IL-6, and independently of blood transfusions. At the end of surgery, IL-6 in ELF correlated with total blood transfusion volume (rho = 0.731, P = 0.011). These results indicate that a neutrophil-derived inflammatory response is activated in the airway in the early phase of CPB.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Respiratory support for patients recovering from cardiopulmonary bypass and cardiac surgery uses large tidal volumes and a minimal level of positive end-expiratory pressure. Recent data indicate that these ventilator settings might cause pulmonary and systemic inflammation in patients with acute lung injury. We examined the hypothesis that high tidal volumes and low levels of positive end-expiratory pressure might worsen the inflammatory response associated to cardiopulmonary bypass. METHODS Forty patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass were randomized to be ventilated after cardiopulmonary bypass disconnection with high tidal volume/low positive end-expiratory pressure (10-12 mL/kg and 2-3 cm H2O, respectively) or low tidal volume/high positive end-expiratory pressure (8 mL/kg and 10 cm H2O, respectively). Interleukin 6 and interleukin 8 levels were measured in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and plasma. Samples were taken before sternotomy (time 0), immediately after cardiopulmonary bypass separation (time 1), and after 6 hours of mechanical ventilation (time 2). RESULTS Interleukin 6 and interleukin 8 levels in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and plasma significantly increased at time 1 in both groups but further increased at time 2 only in patients ventilated with high tidal volume/low positive end-expiratory pressure. Interleukin 6 and interleukin 8 levels in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and in the plasma at time 2 were higher with high tidal volume/low positive end-expiratory pressure than with low tidal volume/high positive end-expiratory pressure.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Mechanical ventilation (MV) may induce an inflammatory alveolar response. One-lung ventilation (OLV) with tidal volumes (Vt) as used during two-lung ventilation is a suggested algorithm but may impose mechanical stress of the dependent lung and potentially aggravate alveolar mediator release. We studied whether ventilation with different Vt modifies pulmonary immune function, hemodynamics, and gas exchange. Thirty-two patients undergoing open thoracic surgery were randomized to receive either MV with Vt = 10 mL/kg (n = 16) or Vt = 5 mL/kg (n = 16) adjusted to normal Pa(CO2) during and after OLV. Fiberoptic bronchoalveolar lavage of the ventilated lung was performed, and cells, protein, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, interleukin (IL)-8, soluble intercellular adhesion molecule (sICAM)-1, IL-10, and elastase were determined in the bronchoalveolar lavage. Data were analyzed by parametric or nonparametric tests, as indicated. In all patients, an increase of proinflammatory variables was found. The time courses of intra-alveolar cells, protein, albumin, IL-8, elastase, and IL-10 did not differ between the groups after OLV and postoperatively. TNF-alpha (8.4 versus 5.0 microg/mL) and sICAM-1 (52.7 versus 27.5 microg/mL) concentrations were significantly smaller after OLV with Vt = 5 mL/kg. These results indicate that MV may induce epithelial damage and a proinflammatory response in the ventilated lung. Reduction of tidal volume during OLV may reduce alveolar concentrations of TNF-alpha and of sICAM-1. IMPLICATIONS Reductions of tidal volume, with subsequently decreased peak airway pressures, may reduce some alveolar inflammatory responses seen with mechanical ventilation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), a procedure often used during cardiac surgery, is associated with an inflammatory process that leads to lung injury. We hypothesized that inhaled nitric oxide (INO), which has anti-inflammatory properties, possesses the ability to modulate lung cell apoptosis and prevent CPB-induced inflammation. METHODS Twenty male pigs were randomly classified into four groups: sham, sham plus INO, CPB, and CPB plus INO. INO (20 ppm) was administered for 24 h after anesthesia. CPB was performed 90 min into INO treatment. BAL fluid and blood were collected at time 0 (before CPB), at 4 h after beginning CPB, and 24 h after beginning CPB (T24). RESULTS At T(24), BAL interleukin (IL)-8 levels and neutrophil percentages were elevated significantly in the CPB group. At T(24), INO reduced IL-8 concentrations and attenuated the increase of neutrophil percentage in the CPB-plus-INO group. Nitrite-plus-nitrate (NOx) concentrations were decreased significantly in groups without INO. Moreover, animals treated with INO showed higher rates of pulmonary apoptosis compared to their respective control groups except for the sham-plus-INO group, in which they were diminished. CONCLUSION These results demonstrate that NOx production is reduced after CPB, and that INO acts as an anti-inflammatory agent by decreasing neutrophil numbers and their major chemoattractant, IL-8. INO also increases cell apoptosis in the lungs during inflammatory conditions, which may explain, in part, how it resolves pulmonary inflammation.

Abstract
Valve operations in the form of repair or replacement make up a significant population of patients undergoing surgical procedures in the USA annually with the use of cardiopulmonary bypass. These patients experience a wide range of complications that are considered to be mediated by activation of complement and leukocytes. The extracorporeal perfusion circuit consists of multiple synthetic artificial surfaces. The biocompatibility of the blood contact surfaces is a variable that predisposes patients to an increased risk of complement mediation and activation. This can result in an inflammatory process, causing leukocytes to proliferate and sequester in the major organ systems. The purpose of this study was to determine whether filtration of activated leukocytes improved clinical outcomes following surgical intervention for valve repair or replacement. In this paper, we report a retrospective matched cohort study of 700 patients who underwent valve procedures from June 1999 to December 2002. The control group (CG) consisted of patients who had a conventional arterial line filter. In the study group (SG), patients had a conventional arterial line filter and a leukocyte arterial line filter (Pall Medical, NY). In the SG, blood diverted to the cardioplegia system was also leukocyte depleted to enhance myocardial preservation by adapting this device to the outflow port on the filter. Patient characteristics were similar for the SG and the CG, including 228 males and 122 females, mean age (62.4 versus 64.2 years), cardiopulmonary bypass time (127+/-64 versus 116+/-53 min), and aortic crossclamp time (84+/-23 versus 81+/-23 min). Our results demonstrate that the SG achieved statistically significant reduction in the time to extubation (p =0.03) and the number of patients with prolonged intubation in excess of 24 hours (p <0.04), in addition to improved postoperative oxygenation (p=0.01), and decreased length of hospital stay (p =0.03). We believe that leukocyte filters are clinically beneficial, as demonstrated by the results presented in this study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Previous reports have shown that 15% of patients who undergo sequential anterior, then posterior, surgical corrections for spinal deformities demonstrate evidence of acute lung injury. By analyzing the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid from these patients for evidence of acute inflammation, we might gain some insight into the etiology of this acute lung injury. PURPOSE To elucidate the etiology of acute lung injury after corrective surgery for adult spinal deformities. STUDY DESIGN/SETTING Fifteen adult patients with scoliosis scheduled for elective sequential anterior then posterior corrective (A/P) spinal deformity surgery. PATIENT SAMPLE Consecutive adult patients with scoliosis scheduled for elective corrective surgery with the author (OBA). OUTCOME MEASURES Patients were assessed for postoperative respiratory complications by oxygen requirements, continued mechanical ventilation, and radiological evidence of diffuse bilateral interstitial or alveolar infiltrates. An acute pulmonary inflammatory response included the presence of inflammatory cells and elevated cytokines in BAL fluid. METHODS BAL were performed after induction of anesthesia but before surgery, at the completion of surgery, and on the morning after surgery with the patient still intubated. BAL fluid was analyzed for inflammatory cells and cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) levels. Patients were assessed postoperatively for increased pulmonary vascular resistance, radiological evidence of diffuse bilateral alveolar infiltrates, and the requirement for ventilatory support beyond the first postoperative day (POD1). RESULTS The cell counts of BAL fluid demonstrated significant increases in neutrophils, lymphocytes, and lipid laden macrophages (LLMAC) with surgery. The concentration of the cytokines IL-6 and TNF-alpha also increased with surgery. The elevations in BAL inflammatory cells and cytokine levels correlated positively with increased pulmonary vascular resistance and the requirement for mechanical ventilation. CONCLUSIONS After A/P spine fusions, patients have evidence of an acute inflammatory pulmonary injury. Several etiologies exist for this finding, including blood and fluid infusions, direct trauma to the lung, a systemic inflammatory response, and the embolization of fat and bone-marrow debris. The presence of LLMAC in the lungs of these patients and the finding that the patient with the requirement for the longest ventilatory support also had the highest BAL LLMAC count, suggest that the embolization of fat and bone debris released from the spine during surgery may be at least partially responsible for the lung injury. Further studies on the mechanism of lung injury during this procedure are warranted.

Abstract
Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with an inflammatory process that leads to lung injury. In this study, we hypothesized that inhaled nitric oxide (INO) possesses the ability to modulate CPB-induced inflammation. Fifteen male pigs were randomly divided into 3 groups: Sham, CPB+LPS (CPB and lipopolysaccharide), and CPB+LPS+INO. INO (20 parts per million) was administered for 24 h after anesthesia. CPB was performed for 90 min, and LPS was infused (1 µg/kg) after CPB. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and blood were collected at T0(before CPB), at 4 h, and at 24 h. At 24 h, BAL interleukin-8 (IL-8) levels were not increased as expected in the CPB+LPS group compared with the Sham group, but they were reduced significantly in the CPB+LPS+INO group. Cell hypo reactivity observed in the groups receiving LPS also seemed to downregulate endothelial nitric oxide synthase NOS protein expression relative to the Sham group. Nitrite and nitrate (NOx) concentrations were decreased significantly in the groups without INO. Moreover, animals treated with INO showed higher rates of pulmonary apoptosis compared with their respective controls. These results demonstrate that NOx production is reduced after CPB and that INO acts on the inflammatory process by diminishing neutrophils and their major chemoattractant, IL-8. INO also increases cell apoptosis in the lungs under inflammatory conditions, which may explain, in part, how it resolves pulmonary inflammation.Key words: CPB, nitric oxide, apoptosis, LPS, IL-8.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Airway mucins may play an important role in the mechanism of respiratory complications after cardiopulmonary bypass in infants and children. Our aim was to measure airway mucin levels before and after cardiopulmonary bypass and to determine whether changes in mucin levels were associated with the development of respiratory complications. METHODS Airway glycoprotein and mucins (MUC5AC, MUC5B, and MUC2) in serial small-volume airway lavage samples from 39 young children who underwent cardiac operations with cardiopulmonary bypass were measured by slot-blot assay with specific antimucin peptide antibodies. The relationship between mucin changes and post-cardiopulmonary bypass respiratory complications was investigated. Airway lavage samples were also collected from 11 children before and after operation without cardiopulmonary bypass, and changes in mucin levels were compared with those in subjects who underwent cardiopulmonary bypass. Airway lavage sample DNA was also measured to investigate the relationship between mucin changes and lung injury. RESULTS Glycoprotein, MUC5AC, and MUC5B levels were significantly increased after cardiopulmonary bypass (P <.001) whereas MUC2 level was not. Children with respiratory complications showed significantly higher glycoprotein and MUC5AC levels than did children without respiratory complications before and after cardiopulmonary bypass (P <.05). Increase of total mucin (MUC5AC, MUC5B, and MUC2) during cardiopulmonary bypass showed positive correlation with DNA increase during cardiopulmonary bypass (r = 0.73), PaCO(2) (r = 0.62) and alveolar-arterial oxygen difference (r = 0.55) immediately after cardiopulmonary bypass. Increase of total mucin was associated with postoperative respiratory complications and their severity. There were no significant changes detected in airway mucin during operations without cardiopulmonary bypass. CONCLUSIONS Airway mucins were increased during cardiopulmonary bypass, and this increase was associated with markers of lung injury after cardiopulmonary bypass and with the development of postoperative respiratory complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Expression of inducible heme oxygenase has been shown to be increased in various visceral inflammatory disorders, which may confer a protective role. The purpose of our study was to determine whether the expression of inducible heme oxygenase was up-regulated within lungs in a rat model of extracorporeal circulation. METHODS Wistar rats underwent either a partial femoro-femoral extracorporeal circulation in normothermia for 3 hours (n = 5) or a sham procedure (n = 5). Exhaled carbon monoxide concentration was monitored with an infrared analyzer. After the rats were killed, lungs were harvested for determination of heme oxygenase activity and inducible heme oxygenase expression (by Western blot and immunohistochemistry). Lung injury was also assessed by arterial blood gas analysis and microscopic study. RESULTS Extracorporeal circulation was responsible for a lung injury characterized by decreased arterial blood oxygen saturation and typical morphologic findings (marked alveolar neutrophil infiltration; interstitial edema). Exhaled carbon monoxide concentration remained stable throughout the experiment in all sham rats, whereas it increased after extracorporeal circulation (from 0.16 +/- 0.05 ppm at baseline to 0.7 +/- 0.2 ppm at end of experiment; P =.0001). Pulmonary heme oxygenase activity and inducible heme oxygenase content (assessed by Western blot) were increased within lungs of rats that underwent extracorporeal circulation. Immunohistochemistry revealed that the expression of inducible heme oxygenase was mainly localized to inflammatory cells. CONCLUSIONS Post-extracorporeal circulation acute lung injury in rats was associated with an increased expression of inducible heme oxygenase, the functional significance of which remains to be determined.

Abstract
Exhaled nitric oxide (NO) concentration, a marker of pulmonary inflammation, has been shown to be elevated in various models of acute lung injury (ALI). This study was undertaken to evaluate the pulmonary NO production in a rat model of postextracorporeal circulation (ECC) ALI. Wistar rats underwent either a partial femorofemoral ECC in normothermia for 3 h (n = 10) or a sham procedure (n = 10). The extracorporeal circuit consisted of a roller pump and a membrane oxygenator. Exhaled NO concentration was monitored with a chemiluminescence analyzer. After sacrifice, lungs were harvested for microscopic studies and to analyze the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) activity and expression (Western blot). ECC was responsible for an ALI characterized by a decreased arterial blood oxygen saturation (88.9% [51.7-94.2] vs. 93.7% [91.4-98.6] P = 0.005) and pulmonary histological changes (marked alveolar neutrophil infiltration; interstitial edema; intraalveolar hemorrhage). The lung injury score was significantly higher in the ECC group (n = 5; 3.0 [2-4]) in comparison to the sham group (n = 5; 1.0 [0-2]). Exhaled NO concentration remained stable throughout the experiment in all sham rats whereas it significantly increased in the ECC group from baseline (2 ppb [1-5]) until the end of experiment (33.5 ppb [1-47]). Lung iNOS activity and expression were also significantly increased in the ECC group. An increase in exhaled NO, however, did not correlate with the decrease in arterial oxygen pressure. ECC was responsible for an ALI in rats and for an elevated pulmonary NO production. Determination of the relationship between exhaled NO and the severity of the inflammatory process in ALI will require further studies.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Cardiopulmonary bypass induces a systemic inflammatory response characterized by alterations in cardiopulmonary function. Mediators for this morbidity are the cytokines tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interleukins. A genomic polymorphism within the TNF locus is associated with increased TNF-alpha levels and high mortality in severe trauma and sepsis. We assessed the relationship of biallelic polymorphisms of the TNF locus in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery to release of proinflammatory cytokines and cardiopulmonary morbidity. TNF genotypes, plasma concentrations of TNF-alpha, interleukin-6, and cardiopulmonary morbidity were studied in 95 unselected, consecutive patients undergoing routine cardiac surgery. TNF genotypes were determined by the solid-phase minisequencing method. Patients homozygous for the TNFB2 allele (n = 42) displayed larger peak concentrations of TNF-alpha (11.3 +/- 1.3 versus 7.8 +/- 0.7 pg/mL; P = 0.013) and interleukin-6 (153 +/- 27 versus 87 +/- 7 pg/mL; P = 0.010) when compared with patients homozygous or heterozygous for TNFB1 (n = 53). The TNFB2 homozygotes had a higher incidence of left ventricular dysfunction (31% versus 9%; P = 0.029; odds ratio 3.84 [95% confidence interval, 1.40-24.3]), postoperative pulmonary dysfunction (24% versus 6%; P = 0.016; odds ratio 5.21 [95% confidence interval, 1.49-18.3]), and a lower pulmonary oxygenation index (29 +/- 1.9 versus 36.1 +/- 1.8; P = 0.013). Patients homozygous for the TNFB2 allele may develop an enhanced systemic inflammatory response with an increased risk of cardiopulmonary morbidity after cardiac surgery. IMPLICATIONS The associations between tumor necrosis factor (TNF) gene polymorphism, plasma cytokines, and cardiopulmonary function after elective cardiac surgery were evaluated. Patients homozygous for the TNFB2 allele displayed larger concentrations of TNF-alpha and interleukin-6 and had an increased risk of developing left ventricular and pulmonary dysfunction compared with TNFB1 homo- or heterozygotes.

Abstract
The treatment of acute respiratory failure in infants by means of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is thought to be associated with a treatment-related inflammatory reaction, which may deteriorate the underlying disease process. The aim of this study was to compare the venoarterial (VA) and venovenous (VV) modality of ECMO with regard to their pulmonary and serological cytokine release during rescue from acute hypoxia. The inflammatory response was measured in piglets undergoing hypoxic ventilation with a gas mixture of 92% N2 and 8% O2, which were then rescued through VA- (n = 5) or VV-ECMO (n = 5). The effect of cannulation and anesthesia on the inflammatory response was deducted from regularly ventilated control animals (n = 5). The concentrations of the proinflammatory interleukins (IL)-1beta and IL-8 increased in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of all groups over a study period of 5 h but were significantly higher (P < 0.05) during VA-ECMO treatment, whereas the anti-inflammatory IL-10 concentrations were significantly higher in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of VV-treated animals (P < 0.001). No statistical difference between groups was found in the serum concentrations of cytokines. We conclude that in this animal model rescue from hypoxia by means of the VA modality of ECMO leads to a more pronounced inflammatory reaction of the lung than when applying the VV modality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Anesthesia and surgery decrease antimicrobial and increase proinflammatory functions of alveolar immune cells. Thus, anti-inflammatory agents that do not further suppress antimicrobial functions are required. We tested the hypothesis that intraoperative prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) suppresses proinflammatory responses and prevents the reduction in antimicrobial responses of alveolar immune cells. DESIGN Prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blind study. SETTING University hospital. PATIENTS A total of 40 patients undergoing elective orthopedic surgery under propofol/fentanyl anesthesia. INTERVENTION In double-blind fashion, the patients received PGE1 from the beginning to the end of surgery (PGE1 group, n = 20) or nothing (control group, n = 20). METHODS AND MAIN RESULTS Alveolar immune cells were harvested by bronchoalveolar lavage immediately after induction of anesthesia; 2, 4, and 6 hrs after induction of anesthesia; and at the end of surgery. We measured opsonized and nonopsonized phagocytosis. Microbicidal activity was evaluated to directly kill Listeria monocytogenes in alveolar macrophages. Finally, we determined the expression of proinflammatory cytokines including interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-8, interferon-gamma, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and that of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-4 and IL-10) by semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction. Nonopsonized and opsonized phagocytosis and microbicidal activity of alveolar macrophages decreased and the expression of genes for all pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines increased significantly over time in both groups. Starting 2-4 hrs after induction of anesthesia, the increases in gene expression of proinflammatory cytokines were 1.5-3 times smaller in the PGE1 than in the control group. Starting 6 hrs after anesthesia, the increase in gene expression of IL-10 was 1.5-3 times greater in the PGE1 than in the control group. Intraoperative decreases in phagocytic and microbial activities were the same in the two groups. CONCLUSION Intraoperative PGE1 not only suppressed proinflammatory responses, but also protected antimicrobial functions of alveolar macrophages, possibly because PGE1 is mostly inactivated in the pulmonary intravascular space. Our results suggest that intraoperative PGE1 protects the pulmonary immune defense in alveolar immune cells.

Abstract
Investigations into cardiopulmonary bypass continue to refine knowledge and clinical practice. Recent investigations have emphasized neurological complications, introducing the possibility of genetic predisposition as a risk factor. Appropriate flows, pressures, and hematocrit levels during cardiopulmonary bypass continue to create controversy. Whereas previous debate has centered around appropriate temperature management, recent discussions consider the possibility that mild hypothermia after cardiopulmonary bypass might be neuroprotective. Meta-analyses and prospective investigations continue to suggest the virtual equivalence of aprotinin and lysine analogues in reducing bleeding and transfusion after cardiopulmonary bypass. Several recent studies identified the mechanisms and severity of the inflammatory response to cardiopulmonary bypass, as well as possible techniques for attenuating inflammation.
