Interferon gamma receptor expression on granulocytes of cardiac surgical patients is modulated differently by the type of cardiopulmonary bypass used

Abstract

Compared to "miniaturised" CPB patients, the significantly higher IFNγ receptor expression on granulocytes was found in "standard" CPB patients (p<0.05) on the 1(st) postoperative day.

Editorial

“…The links are inescapable. Greiner et al 3 discussing DEHP, its active metabolites and the absence of their effect on the inflammatory response highlights the balance that needs to be evaluated alongside the increased surface areas and types of material used to realise the clinical benefits of zero balance ultrafiltration described by Mick et al 4 Litmathe et al 5 and Griffith et al 6 present data on two different aspects of long-term support and both will recognise, as we all do, the importance of understanding S-100 Beta protein and interferon gamma receptor expression presented by Bayram et al 7 and Jankovicova et al, 8 respectively. Their consequence in short-term support has significant implications in the long-term support environment.…”

Tlr2 and Tlr4 Expression on Blood Monocytes and Granulocytes of Cardiac Surgical Patients Is Not Affected by the Use of Cardiopulmonary Bypass

“…All samples were processed immediately upon the blood collection and the expression was measured within 2 h after the collection. A detailed method is described elsewhere (13).…”
