Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Interleukin-6 (IL-6) plays a central role in the acute phase of inflammation after surgical injury. The serum concentration of IL-6 increases during an operation. The mechanisms of this increase in the serum IL-6 level, however, has not yet been fully clarified. STUDY DESIGN:To determine the possibility of production of IL-6 at the operative wound site and its regulation by humoral factors in surgical patients, the IL-6 secretion of biopsied skin obtained from an operative wound both before and after the operation were quantitated by using organ culture techniques. RESULTS:When skin explants obtained from the uninjured skin were cultivated and the amounts of IL-6 secreted into the culture medium were measured, IL-6 secretion increased exponentially during culture, which indicated that the stress of the skin incision induced IL-6 production. The skin specimens obtained from the operative wounds postoperatively secreted a significantly larger amount of IL-6 than those obtained from uninjured skin either preoperatively or postoperatively, implying that skin at the site of the operative wound had been more sensitized to produce IL-6 because of the surgical injury. The IL-6 secretion by skin explants was significantly enhanced either by tumor necrosis factor or interleukin-1, while it was inhibited by corticosteroids. CONCLUSIONS:Interleukin-6 production at the site of the operative wound is partly responsible for the elevation of the serum IL-6 level during the operation. Organ cultures of the skin explants may provide a feasible system for research on the cytokine networks in surgical patients.
