Research Abstract |
To elucidate the mechanism of neutrophil(Np) induced reperfusion injury in myocardium, Np myocytes(Mc) and endothelial cells(Ec) were isolated from adult rat heart and blood. To elucidate the hypothesis that Np plays a role in reperfusion injury, a coincubation system with a monolayr of endothelial cells on the collagen membrane and myocytes under a collagen membrane was established. In this system, significant increase of Np migration through Ec, Mc damage and count of chemiluminescence were increased by 2 hours of hypoxia.However, these changes were decreased by administration of monoclonal antibody anti ICAM-1 and IL-6. Hypoxic Mc and Ec showed significant expression of ICAM-1. In the supernatant of hypoxic myocyte, significant increase of IL-6 was detected as compared to normoxic myocytes. These results suggested that ICAM-1 on Ec and Mc is implicated in Np migration through Ec and Np induced damage resulting in the extension of reperfusion injury in myocardium. Moreover, IL-6 may be derived from hypoxic myocytes and promote neutrophil induced reperfusion injury.
