Reperfusion injury of ischemic skeletal muscle is mediated by natural antibody and complement
نویسندگان
چکیده
Reperfusion of ischemic tissue induces an acute inflammatory response that can result in necrosis and irreversible cell injury to both local vascular endothelium and parenchyma. To examine the pathogenesis of ischemia/reperfusion injury, we have used mice deficient in complement components C3, C4, or serum immunoglobulin in a hindlimb model of ischemia. We found that mice homozygous deficient in C3 or C4 were equally protected against reperfusion injury based on a significant reduction in leakage of radiolabeled albumin out of the vasculature. This demonstrates that classical pathway complement is an important factor in the initiation of inflammation following reperfusion. Furthermore, mice deficient in serum immunoglobulin were equally protected and this protection could be reversed by reconstitution with serum from normal mice. Thus, this report describes a novel mechanism for reperfusion injury that involves antibody deposition and activation of complement leading to inflammation permeability.

Natural antibody mediated innate autoimmune response.
Recent advance in autoimmunity research reveals that the innate immune system is able to recognize self-targets and initiate inflammatory response in a similar way as with pathogens. This review describes one novel example of this innate autoimmunity, ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Studies of intestinal, skeletal muscle, and heart I/R models showed that reperfusion of ischemic tissues elici...

متن کاملSoluble P-selectin moderates complement-dependent reperfusion injury of ischemic skeletal muscle.
P-selectin is an adhesion molecule expressed on activated endothelial and platelet surfaces. The function of the short consensus repeats (SCRs) of P-selectin, homologous with the SCRs of complement regulatory proteins is largely unknown. In a model of murine hindlimb ischemia where local reperfusion injury is partly mediated by IgM natural antibody and classical complement pathway activation, w...
متن کاملIgM binding to injured tissue precedes complement activation during skeletal muscle ischemia-reperfusion.
BACKGROUND Skeletal muscle reperfusion injury is mediated by IgM natural antibodies and by complement activation, as shown by the attenuation of reperfusion injury seen in mice with no natural IgM [] and in mice deficient in complement C3 and C4 []. We postulate that tissue, when ischemic, expresses neoantigens to which preformed natural IgM antibodies bind, in turn producing harmful complement...
متن کاملAttenuation of skeletal muscle reperfusion injury with intravenous 12 amino acid peptides that bind to pathogenic IgM.
BACKGROUND The injury sustained by reperfused skeletal muscle is inflammatory and is initiated by binding of pre-formed IgM to involved tissue, followed by local complement activation and further inflammation. A clone of natural IgM has been described that initiates this injury, suggesting that specific antigens are exposed on ischemic tissues that act as ligands for this pathogenic antibody. I...
