Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to evaluate an Inhibitory effect of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) administration on general inflammatory responses following oral and maxillofacial surgery In patients. After institutional approval and informed consent, 20 patients were studied. All the patients received the same method of general anesthesia. ATP was Infused to the patients in ATP group at the rate of 10 micro grams/kg/minute from the start of operetaion for 6 hours. Blood cells responses, serum C reactive protein (CRP) level, body temperature, postoperative Pain, and serum cytokine levels, which are important factors of general inflammatory response, were Investigated during and after the operation in order to evaluate the effeet of ATP infusion. Furthermore, in in-vitro study we evaluated a direct effect of adenosine, which is a metabolite to of ATP, on cytokine responses in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). PBMCs were obtained from healthy volunteers, and incubated with LPS and adenosine for 12 hours. Cytokine mRNA expression and production in the PBMCs were compared with those in the PBMCs incubated with only LPS. In results, the tendency of inhibition of serum CRP elevation and postoperative pain and the significant inhibition of serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) level were found in ATP group. Furthermore, in in-vitro study adenosine (10 micro M) inhibited production of TNFalpha and interleukin-10, but had no significant effects on mRNA expression of them. Thus, our results suggest that adenosine triphosphate (ATP) administration to patients undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery would have an inhibitory effect on generalinflammatory responses following surgery, associated with the inhibition of TNFalpha response.
