Abstract:
To investigate the role of ICAM 1 in the aggregation of polymorphoneucleocytes (PMN) in the lungs at the early stage of burns. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) content in lung tissues and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was assayed. Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM 1) and its mRNA expression in lung tissues were determined by immunohistochemical method and in situ hybridization. CD11b/CD18 expression on the circulating PMN were measured by flow cytometry. The results showed that levels of MPO in lung tissues and BALF were markedly higher than those of control after burn injury. Expression of ICAM 1 and its mRNA in the lung tissues and CD11b/CD18 on circulating PMN surface were significantly increased at 2, 6, 12, 24hr after burns. It suggests that PMN aggregation in the lungs might be related to increased ICAM 1 expression on pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells and CD11b/CD18 expression on PMN at the early stage of burn injury.
