Major trauma is associated with a decreased capacity of patients' leukocytes to produce pro-inflammatory cytokines upon in vitro stimulation. We studied leukocytes from 44 trauma patients and showed that this hyporeactivity was restricted to Gram-negative bacteria, Escherichia coli endotoxin and unmethylated bacterial DNA, whereas Leptospira interrogans endotoxin-induced tumor necrosis factor (TNF) production was similar to that observed with healthy donors. As well, TNF and interleukin (IL)-6 production in response to Gram-positive bacteria was not altered. The expression of Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 was not reduced on patients' monocytes as compared to healthy controls, whereas that of TLR4 was reduced. However, the hyporeactivity to Gram-negative bacteria and Escherichia coli endotoxin cannot be fully explained by the downregulation of TLR4. Indeed, unlike pro-inflammatory cytokines, following stimulation with these microbial products the release of anti-inflammatory cytokines was increased as compared to healthy controls. The increased IL-10 production was analyzed in terms of intracellular signaling in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from trauma patients: our results suggest the involvement of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, Sp-1 transcription factor, heterotrimeric Gi protein and phosphatidylinositol-3'-kinase. In conclusion, the immunodysregulation described for trauma patients is not a generalized phenomenon, but depends on the stimulus and the signaling pathway.
Key words: lipopolysaccharide, trauma, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, TLR9
