In a group of patients undergoing cardiac surgery performed both with ("on-pump") and without the use ("offpump") of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), we studied the changes of neutrophil membrane apoptosis-inducing complex Apo/Fas.
Expression of Apo/Fas (CD95) on leukocytes was evaluated by flow cytometry.
In "on-pump" patients, we found an increase in the expression of CD95 median intensity fluorescence (MFI) on granulocytes from a baseline level median=56, (Q( 1)=45.5, Q(3)=64) to a median=88, (Q(1)=62, Q( 3)=109.5; p<0.01) at the 3(rd) postoperative day and median=74, (Q(1)=63, Q(3)=84.5; p<0.01) at the 7(th) postoperative day. In "off-pump" patients, granulocyte CD95 MFI was median=55, (Q(1)=51, Q(3)=84) before surgery. The significant increase was found on the 3(rd) postoperative day only; median=90, (Q( 1)=66; Q(3)=98; p<0.05). A similar pattern in the CD95 expression was also found if percentage changes of granulocyte CD95 MFI were followed. Moreover, the significantly increased Apo/Fas expression expressed as a percentage change of CD95 MFI was found in "on-pump" patients compared to "off-pump" patients, both at the 3(rd) postoperative day (p<0.05) and at the 7(th) postoperative day (p<0.01).
This is the first direct evidence of increasing densities of the Apo/Fas complex on neutrophils in cardiac surgical patients.
在一组接受心脏手术的患者中,我们研究了在使用体外循环(“on-pump”)和不使用体外循环(“off-pump”)两种情况下,中性粒细胞膜凋亡诱导复合物Apo/Fas的变化。
通过流式细胞术评估白细胞上Apo/Fas(CD95)的表达。
在“on-pump”患者中,我们发现粒细胞上CD95中位强度荧光(MFI)表达从基线水平中位数=56(Q(1)=45.5,Q(3)=64)增加到术后第3天的中位数=88(Q(1)=62,Q(3)=109.5;p<0.01)以及术后第7天的中位数=74(Q(1)=63,Q(3)=84.5;p<0.01)。在“off-pump”患者中,术前粒细胞CD95 MFI中位数=55(Q(1)=51,Q(3)=84)。仅在术后第3天发现显著增加;中位数=90(Q(1)=66;Q(3)=98;p<0.05)。如果追踪粒细胞CD95 MFI的百分比变化,在CD95表达上也发现了类似模式。此外,与“off-pump”患者相比,“on-pump”患者在术后第3天(p<0.05)和术后第7天(p<0.01),以CD95 MFI百分比变化表示的Apo/Fas表达均显著增加。
这是心脏手术患者中性粒细胞上Apo/Fas复合物密度增加的首个直接证据。
