Inter-individual differences in cytokine release in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass

Abstract: SUMMARYCardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) leads to a systemic inflammatory response with secretion of cytokines (e.g. IL-6, TNF-a , IL-1b and sIL-2R). The objective of the following study was to investigate in vitro and in vivo cytokine responses and white blood cell counts (WBC) of patients with high versus low cytokine secretion after a coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) procedure. Twenty male patients undergoing elective CABG surgery with CPB under general anaesthesia were enrolled in the… Show more

“…Both values are in the range of individual serum levels found in patients with sepsis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and pneumonia. 2,4 Also, in patients suffering from left ventricular dysfunction 1 or after reperfusion of the ischemic heart in cardiopulmonary bypass, 37 IL-6 serum levels are known to be elevated. This may consequently lead to further deterioration of cardiac function, because IL-6 is known to be an independent predictor for worsening of heart failure in patients with end-stage heart failure.…”

“…Oral arginine also improved endothelial dysfunction in patients with essential hypertension (11). Plasma and intracellular levels of arginine are altered in certain disease states, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and diabetes (12)(13)(14). As part of the treatment regimen, L-arginine may serve as a safer and more easily administered alternative to inhaled NO gas or NO donors.…”
