EnglishInterleukin-10 (IL-10) has potent anti-inflammatory properties but its direct effects on neutrophil trafficking in lung transplant ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury are unknown. This study was performed to determine if recipient intramuscular IL-10 gene transfer reduces neutrophil infiltration in lung isografts and ameliorates I/R injury. Twenty-four hours before transplantation, recipient rodents received intramuscular injection with 1 x 10(10) plaque-forming units (pfu) adenovirus encoding human IL-10 (hIL-10), 1 x 10(10) pfu adenovirus control encoding p-galactosidase, or saline. Gene expression in muscle and plasma was confirmed. Lung grafts were harvested, stored at 4 degrees C for 18h, and assessed 24 h after transplantation. Peak muscle and plasma expression of hIL-10 was achieved 24h after gene transfer and returned to baseline by 7 days (p < 0.05 vs. controls). Gene transfer of hIL-10 reduced neutrophil sequestration and emigration in lung grafts as measured by morphometry and myeloperoxidase activity (p < 0.03 vs. controls). Furthermore, hIL-10 improved graft oxygenation and reduced lung edema (p <0.01 vs. controls). Intramuscular gene transfer of hIL-10 releases hIL-10 protein into plasma and reduces neutrophil sequestration and emigration in lung isografts. This is associated with a reduction in I/R injury with improved isograft oxygenation and reduced tissue edema. Intramuscular gene transfer may be a useful strategy to reduce clinical l/R injury.

| Abstract: | Interleukin-10 (IL-10) has potent anti-inflammatory properties but its direct effects on neutrophil trafficking in lung transplant ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury are unknown. This study was performed to determine if recipient intramuscular IL-10 gene transfer reduces neutrophil infiltration in lung isografts and ameliorates I/R injury.
