Reduction of Hepatic Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury by a Soluble P-Selectin Glycoprotein Ligand-1

Abstract: Selectins play an important role in I/R injury of the liver. Early modulation of the interaction between P-selectin and its ligand decreases hepatocyte injury, neutrophil adhesion, and subsequent migration in both warm and cold rat liver ischemia models. In addition, the use of PSGL-1 before ischemic storage and before transplantation prevents hepatic injury, as documented by a significant increase in liver isograft survival. These findings have important clinical ramifications: early inhibition of alloantigen… Show more

“…Although MPO assay also may detect macrophages, 26 our findings are consistent with recent study in a rat model of hepatic cold ischemia followed by isotransplantation, in which cytoprotection rendered by CD62 P-selectin blockade was accompanied by decreased macrophage and diminished MPO content. 25 This report is the first to document the importance of Stat4 signaling in the mechanism of T cell-mediated I/R hepatic injury. Indeed, disruption of Stat4 transcription virtually prevented hepatic I/R insult, as analyzed by sALT/MPO activities and confirmed by Suzuki's criteria.…”

“…We have shown that the blockade of PSGL-1-mediated interactions with a soluble recombinant form of PSGL-1 (sPSGL-1) inhibits recruitment of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) and mononuclear cells (MNC) in rat models of kidney (Takada et al, 1997) and liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury (Dulkanchainun et al, 1998), resulting in significantly less organ dysfunction. There is evidence that functional selectin ligands are predominantly expressed on Th1 rather than Th2 cells (Lim et al, 1999).…”

“…A Mab against P-selectin attenuated PMN accumulation and necrosis in a rat model of hepatic I/Rp injury, 28 and the administration of a soluble PSGL-1 ligand to block P-selectin receptors improved animal survival in a rat transplant model. 29 While important in providing new strategies to protect the ischemic liver from reperfusion injury, studies using blocking agents may not provide a full insight into the mechanisms of injury because of the inherent possibility of concomitantly inhibiting or stimulating other receptors. For instance, PSGL-1 has been shown to serve as a Abbreviations: PMN, polymorphonuclear leukocytes; I/Rp, ischemia-reperfusion; PSGL-1, P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1; AST, aspartate transaminase; ALT, alanine transaminase; P-selectin Ϫ/Ϫ , P-selectin deficient.…”
