Abstract

To explore the relationship of interleukin-8 (IL-8), adherence function of neutrophil (PMN) and acute lung injury (ALI). Eighteen male New Zealand rabbits were divided into two groups randomly: the control group (n=8) and the ALI group (n=10). The model of ALI was replicated by using intravenous lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the rabbits of group ALI. Blood pressure, heart rate, blood gas analysis, hemogram, CD11b expression intensity on the surface of PMN, concentration of serum IL-8 and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured at each time point. Specimens for pathology were obtained at the end of experiment. In group ALI, blood pressure, heart rate and pH declined obviously. PMN count was lowered obviously at 3 hours and increased at 6 hours to some extent. CD11b expression intensity on the surface of PMN, the concentration of serum IL-8 and MDA were increased progressively (all P<0.05). The main changes in the microscopic examination were inflammatory granulocyte infiltration, disseminated thickening of alveolar septa and focal hemorrhages. There were significant correlations between CD11b and IL-8 (r2=0.813, Y=26.729X), and between CD11b and the grades of pathological changes at 6 hours after intravenous LPS (r2=0.771, Y=0.011 02X...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
