Polymorphonuclear leukocytes have been shown to play an important role in myocardial ischemia (MI) and reperfusion (R) injury. Since blockade of platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecules (PECAM-1) inhibits neutrophil transmigration in vitro and in vivo, the effects of a polygonal Ab directed against PECAM-1 were examined in a feline model of Ml/R. We established cross-reactivity of our anti-human PECAM-1 Ab to cat coronary vasculature and neutrophils by immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry. The anti-PECAM-1 Ab markedly blocked leukocyte transmigration into the peritoneal cavity of cats after glycogen-induced peritonitis. Then, anti-PECAM-1 Ab (1 mg/kg) was tested to determine whether it attenuates MI/R injury in a well characterized feline model of Ml and R. Anti-PECAM-1 Ab administered 10 min before R significantly inhibited the myocardial necrosis seen 4.5 h post-R compared with that in MI/R cats treated with control isotype rabbit IgG (12 +/- 2 vs 29 +/- 4% of area at risk; p less than 0.01) and significantly attenuated the rise in plasma creatine kinase activity (p less than 0.05). The Ab did not prevent increases in cardiac myeloperoxidase activity within the affected regions and did not significantly inhibit autologous neutrophil adhesion to coronary endothelium after stimulation of either neutrophils (by leukotriene B4) or coronary endothelium (by thrombin) in vitro. These results indicate that in vivo blockade of PECAM-1 significantly attenuates MI/R injury, presumably by inhibiting transendothelial migration of neutrophils.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.

D003402 Creatine Kinase A transferase that catalyzes formation of PHOSPHOCREATINE from ATP + CREATINE. The reaction stores ATP energy as phosphocreatine. Three cytoplasmic ISOENZYMES have been identified in human tissues: the MM type from SKELETAL MUSCLE, the MB type from myocardial tissue and the BB type from nervous tissue as well as a mitochondrial isoenzyme. Macro-creatine kinase refers to creatine kinase complexed with other serum proteins.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.
