摘要:
Background. Toll-like receptors (TLR) that recognize microbial pathogens play a critical role in innate immunity; however, their expression and function after surgery remain unknown. The aim of this study was to examine TLR2 and TLR4 expression on monocytes and their responses to each agonist after surgical insults. Methods. Blood samples were obtained from 83 patients who underwent gastrointestinal surgery. TLR2, TLR4, and inducible nitric oxide synthase expressions on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were analyzed by flow cytometry. Macrophage activating lipopeptide-2 or lipopolysaccharide-induced tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6 production was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results. TLR2 and TLR4 decreased and showed the lowest values on the postoperative days 3 and 1, respectively. Macrophage-activating lipopeptide-2-stimulated tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6 production was decreased immediately after the operation (P <.05), increased to a maximum value on postoperative day 1, and then decreased gradually. Lipapolysaccharide-stimulated tumor necrosis-factor-α production was also suppressed immediately (P <.05) after operation then showed a gradual increase to maximum values on postoperative day 3. Inducible nitric oxide synthase in cultured PBMC that was obtained immediately after operation was upregulated (P <.05). Conclusion. Expressions of TLR2 and TLR4 were downregulated by operation, and agonist-induced cytokine production was suppressed transiently and soon increased through the activation of PBMC. The present study may offer new insights for Postoperative modulation of innate immunity under surgical stress.
