OBJECTIVE: To study neutrophil activation in circulation as a sign of systemic inflammation in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome.
METHODS: The study comprised very low birth weight preterm infants who had respiratory distress syndrome and required intubation and mechanical ventilation (n = 51), 1-day-old preterm infants who had no need for mechanical ventilation (n = 12), term infants (n = 47), and adult volunteers (n = 25). Neutrophil surface expression of CD11b was quantified with flow cytometry.
RESULTS: In preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome, neutrophil CD11b expression during the first day of life was higher than in cord blood (mean: 165 relative fluorescence units [RFU] [standard deviation [SD]: 53], n = 29 vs 83 RFU [SD: 21], n = 11; 95% confidence interval [CI] for difference: 59-106) or in preterm infants without mechanical ventilation (106 RFU [SD: 33], n = 12; 95% CI for difference: 17-90). CD11b expression decreased by age of 10 days. CD11b expression was lower in preterm cord than in term cord blood (95% CI for difference: 5-53). However, in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome aged 2 to 5 days, it was higher than in term infants of that age.
CONCLUSIONS: The observations demonstrate an early transient postnatal neutrophil activation indicative of systemic inflammation that may contribute to the tissue injury in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome.
