Changes in plasma protein extravasation in rat skin during inflammatory challenges evaluated by microdialysis

Abstract

Docetaxel and prostaglandin E 1 (PGE 1 ) increase transcapillary albumin extravasation and reduce interstitial fluid pressure in the skin. In this study the microdialysate concentration (C m ) of 125 I-labeled human serum albumin ( 125 I-HSA) and different-sized endogenous plasma proteins (EPP) was compared to evaluate changes in transcapillary extravasation of plasma proteins. 125 I-HSA was also used to estimate changes in the specific activity of albumin. Extravasation of 125 I-HSA and EPP from plasma to interstitium in the rat skin was compared during continuous administration of docetaxel and PGE 1 by using microdialysis in anesthetized rats. Also, 20 ml of Ringer solution (RS) were injected intravenously during 10 min in a separate group. Two hollow plasmapheresis fibers (3 cm, cut off 3,000 kDa), one acting as control, were placed subcutaneously on the back skin and perfused with RS (5 µl/min, 140 min, collected every 10 min). The size of the different EPP was estimated to be 73, 65, 56, 47, and 39 Å, separated by a size-exclusion high-performance liquid chromatography column and quantified by UV detection (280 nm). Docetaxel (0.5 mg/ml, n = 5) increased C m of 125 I-HSA and EPP of sizes 73, 65, 56, and 39 Å significantly ( P < 0.05) compared with control. PGE 1 (20 µg/ml, n = 6) increased C m of 125 I-HSA significantly ( P < 0.05) but none of the different-sized EPP was increased compared with control. Intravenous RS (20 ml, n = 6) increased C m of 125 I-HSA and increased all the different-sized EPP significantly ( P < 0.05) compared with control.
