Leukocyte adhesion in local versus hemorrhage-induced ischemia.
The objective of this study was to compare the leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesive interactions elicited in postcapillary venules by either local ischemia-reperfusion or hemorrhage-reperfusion. Leukocyte rolling, adherence, and emigration were monitored in cat mesenteric venules exposed to an 85% reduction in blood flow (induced by either hemorrhage or local restriction of arterial inflow) for 1 h, followed by 1 h reperfusion. Leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions, venular diameter, and red blood cell velocity were measured during baseline, ischemia, and reperfusion periods. Both local and hemorrhage-induced ischemia reperfusion caused a reduction in leukocyte rolling velocity and increases in leukocyte adherence and emigration. Quantitatively, the adherence and emigration responses in both ischemia models were nearly identical. However, the two models differed in their response to immunoneutralization of the leukocyte adhesion glycoprotein CD11/CD18 with monoclonal antibody (MAb) IB4. The MAb had a more profound effect in attenuating leukocyte adherence and emigration in the local ischemia model. These results indicate that different factors may contribute to leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesive interactions observed in local vs. systemic models of ischemia-reperfusion.
