Research Abstract |
We have been identified that neutrophils express TRAIL and TRAIL-R which were induced by IFNgamma and reduced by TNFalpha. Finally, TNFalpha induced the netrophils apoptosis and IFNgamma reduced. In the present study, leukocytes were isolated in peripheral blood and local exudates from post-operative drain in SIRS. The level of TRAIL, TRAIL-R1, and -R2 (death receptor) mRNA were significant higher and the level of TRAIL-R3 and -R4 (decoy receptor) mRNA were significant lower in leukocytes from exudates than leukocytes form peripheral blood. Up- or down-regulation of TRAIL receptor expression by TNFalpha or IFNgamma can affect the susceptibility of neutrophils to TRAIL. In local inflammatory field, neutophils are activated by high amount of cytokines and neutophils expressing TRAIL, -R1 and -R2 can transit to be apoptosis. TRAIL signaling pathway could potentially regulate the fate of tissue-infiltrating neutrophils during SIRS.
