Correlation between myeloperoxidase-quantified neutrophil accumulation and ischemic brain injury in the rat. Effects of neutrophil depletion.

Abstract: Background and Purpose Neutrophils have been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion injury. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the correlation between neutrophil infiltration into ischemic tissues and brain injury after transient focal ischemia.Methods We evaluated the effects of depletion of circulating neutrophils by administration of an antineutroph.il monoclonal antibody (RP3) on brain edema formation, infarct size, and neutrophil infiltration (myeloperoxidase [MPO]-quantified) in… Show more

“…MPO is mainly present in neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages; thus, it has been used as a marker for infiltrated neutrophils at sites of injury. 49,50 Recently, MPO was reported to be present in brain-resident cells under pathological conditions. 18,23 The results of the present study using primary glial cell cultures strongly support the hypothesis that glial cells are among the MPO-expressing cells of the brain.…”

“…O método empregado apresenta resultados semelhantes em relação a outros que utilizam parâmetros bioquímicos, apesar destes últimos serem superiores em relação à contribuição ao conhecimento da fisiopatologia da isquemia [22][23][24][25][26][27][28] , assim como os métodos de fluxo sangüíneo cerebral que nos trazem informações da dinâmica do processo isquêmico.…”

“…Estes métodos permitem quantificar reações metabólicas que ocorrem normalmente nos tecidos, como por exemplo a atividade de diferentes enzimas [22][23][24][25][26] , a dosagem e o estudo da cinética da liberação dos neurotransmissores do tecido 27 e alterações moleculares das mitocondrias 28 . A possibilidade de estudo das alterações que ocorrem na área de penumbra é de grande interesse, pois esta é a área a ser preservada no tratamento do infarto cerebral.…”

“…For instance, the time over which neutrophils infiltrate an ischemic stroke (beginning at 6h in experimental studies in the rat (Barone et al, 1995) and 15h in humans (Lindsberg et al, 1996) and persisting for days) mirrors edema development, suggesting that neutrophils could be causal factors (Lindsberg et al, 1996;Zhang et al, 1994, Del Zoppo et al, 2001). However studies in animal disease models have been contradictory, with some correlating neutrophils to indicators of brain edema (Del Maschio et al, 1999;Matsuo et al, 1994;Wispelwey et al, 1988;Yamasaki et al, 1995). Others show no relationship (Adelson et al, 1998;Hartl et al, 1997;Tauber et al, 1988;Whalen et al, 1999) while others suggest that neutrophils reduce BBB disruption (Ahmed et al, 2000;Lo et al, 1998;Schurer et al, 1990).…”
