Abstract Perioperative systemic inflammation induced by surgical stress elevates the risk of hematogenous cancer metastasis. This study investigated the anti-metastatic effects and mechanisms of methylprednisolone (MP) administration for surgical stress. We examined the effects of MP on the expression of adhesion molecules in human vascular endothelial cells and in a murine hepatic metastasis model under lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration, which mimics systemic inflammation induced by surgical stress. Serum E-selectin level was measured in blood samples obtained from 32 gastric cancer patients who were randomly assigned to treat preoperatively with or without MP. The expression of E-selectin in LPS-induced vascular endothelial cells was suppressed by MP. An adhesion assay showed the number of LPS-induced adherent tumour cells was significantly lower following MP. In the in vivo study, LPS significantly elevated the number of hepatic metastases, but pretreatment with MP before LPS significantly inhibited this elevation. The LPS-induced expression of E-selectin in the vascular endothelium of the portal vein was suppressed by MP. In human clinical samples, serum E-selectin level was significantly decreased by preoperative MP. Suppression of surgically induced systemic inflammation by MP administration might prevent hematogenous cancer metastases by suppressing the induction of E-selectin expression in the vascular endothelium. |
