Abstract:
A murine closed trauma model was used to study the modulating effects of macrophages on T lymphocyte proliferation and the mechanism.It was found that the T lymphocyte transformation was significantly lower than the control on the 1st,2nd,4th,7th and 10 day posttrauma and the suppression of macrophages on T lymphocytes was augmented especially on the 1st,2nd and 4th day posttrauma.Interleukin 1 production of macrophages was not obviously changed while tumor necrosis factor and prostaglandin E2 synthesis were significantly increased.Indomethacin 1?g/ml could block the suppression of macrophages on T cell transformation and mitomycin-C 25?g/ml could stop the synthesis of cytokine but could not block completely the suppression on T cell transformation.These findings suggest that closed trauma induced suppression on T cell transformation results from macrophages through the release of large amounts of prostaglandin E2 and direct cell to cell contact.
