BACKGROUND: Neutrophils in sickle cell disease (SCD) are activated, contributing to disease. Red cell exchange (RCE), with the goal of lowering hemoglobin S (HbS), is an important part of therapy for many SCD patients. Whether RCE impacts neutrophil reactivity is unknown.
STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: To determine the effect of RCE on neutrophil activation, SCD patients undergoing RCE in steady-state were enrolled. Neutrophil degranulation responses were examined before/after RCE. Kinetic studies were completed to determine the duration of the effect of RCE on neutrophil function. Degranulation results were examined in relation to white blood cell count, neutrophil count, and HbS levels. The effect of RCE on RBC phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure was examined as a possible contributor to modulation of neutrophil function by RCE.
RESULTS: Twenty-two patients with SCD, genotype SS, who underwent RCE (average pre-RCE HbS 33 ± 14%) were included for the study. RCE significantly decreased neutrophil degranulation responses. The effect of RCE on neutrophil activation was unrelated to cell count and instead directly correlated with HbS. The effect of RCE on neutrophil activation was sustained over several days post-apheresis. Furthermore, while increased RBC PS exposure results in increased neutrophil degranulation, RCE decreases RBC PS exposure.
DISCUSSION: To our knowledge, this is the first study demonstrating that RCE significantly decreases neutrophil activation in a sustained HbS-dependent manner. Modulation of PS exposure by RCE may be a contributing mechanism by which RCE modulates neutrophil activation. These studies raise the possibility that modulation of neutrophil activation contributes significantly to the therapeutic effect of RCE.
