Cytotoxic products of neutrophils (polymorphonuclear leukocytes, PMNs) contribute to ischemia-reperfusion injury of several tissues. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), one of the cytotoxic products of PMNs, also promotes the adherence of PMNs to cultured vascular endothelial cells in vitro. The present study was undertaken to determine if H2O2 also augmented adhesion of PMNs to intact vessels perfused ex vivo and to determine if H2O2-induced PMN adherence to intact canine carotid arteries and external jugular veins or to cultured canine venous endothelium is mediated by specific adherence ligands on the neutrophil and/or the endothelium.
