Mild intraoperative hypothermia reduces production of reactive oxygen intermediates by polymorphonuclear leukocytes

Anesthesia and Analgesia
C WenischW Graninger

Abstract

Mild hypothermia directly impairs numerous immune functions in vitro. However, the in vivo effects of mild hypothermia on neutrophil phagocytosis and oxidative killing remain unknown. We tested the hypothesis that mild intraoperative hypothermia decreases neutrophil phagocytic capacity and generation of reactive oxygen intermediates (a measure of oxidative killing). Additionally, we evaluated the effects of in vitro temperature manipulations on each function. Thermal management was randomly assigned in 10 surgical patients, causing intraoperative core temperatures to range from 33 to 37 degrees C. Production of reactive oxygen intermediates and neutrophil phagocytosis were evaluated using flow cytometry at ambient temperature. Phagocytic capacity was assessed by uptake of fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled Escherichia coli. Reactive oxygen production was estimated by the intracellular conversion of dihydrorhodamine 123 to rhodamine 123. Blood samples were obtained preoperatively, 1 h after surgery started, and 2 h postoperatively. Blood was also obtained from 10 matched control subjects and tested at 32, 37, and 40 degrees C. Neutrophil oxidative and phagocytic capacities were significantly reduced intraoperatively, compared wi...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
