Popis: Objective: Complement activation is induced by cardiopulmonary bypass, and previous work found that late complement components (C5a, C5b-9) contribute to neutrophil and platelet activation during bypass. In the present study, we blocked C5b-9 formation during extracorporeal recirculation of whole blood to assess whether the membrane attack complex was responsible for both platelet and leukocyte activation. Methods: In a simulated extracorporeal model that activates complement (C3a and sC5b-9), platelets (CD62P expression, leukocyte-platelet conjugate formation), and leukocytes (increased CD11b expression and neutrophil elastase), we examined an anti-human C8 monoclonal antibody that inhibits C5b-9 generation for its effects on cellular activation. Results: Anti-C8 significantly inhibited sC5b-9 formation but did not block C3a generation. Anti-C8 also significantly inhibited the increase in platelet CD62P and monocyte-platelet conjugate formation seen with control circulation. Moreover, compared with control circulation, in which the number of circulating platelets fell by 45%, addition of anti-C8 completely preserved platelet counts. In contrast to blockade of both C5a and sC5b-9 during simulated extracorporeal circulation, neutrophil activation was not inhibited by anti-C8. However, circulating neutrophil and monocyte counts were preserved by addition of anti-C8 to the extracorporeal circuit. Conclusions: The membrane attack complex, C5b-9, is the major complement determinant of platelet activation during extracorporeal circulation, whereas C5b-9 blockade has little effect on neutrophil activation. These data also suggest a role for platelet activation or C5b-9 (or both) in the loss of monocytes and neutrophils to the extracorporeal circuit. (J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 1999;118:460-6)
