P-selectin-dependent leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion has been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in several vascular beds, including the gut. Because platelet-endothelial (P/E) cell adhesion also occurs in postischemic venules, the possibility exists that the expression of P-selectin on the surface of platelets that are adherent to venular endothelial cells may mediate the leukocyte recruitment elicited by I/R. P-selectin expression [dual radiolabeled monoclonal antibody (MAb) technique] and neutrophil accumulation [myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity] were measured in the postischemic small intestine of untreated rats and rats treated with either antiplatelet serum (APS) or MAbs directed against either P-selectin, GPIIb/IIIa, or fibrinogen. The increases in P-selectin expression and tissue MPO normally elicited by I/R were significantly attenuated in the different treatment groups, suggesting that I/R-induced neutrophil recruitment is a platelet-dependent, P-selectin-mediated process. Intravital microscopy was then employed to examine this process relative to leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion in postischemic rat mesenteric venules. The recruitment of adherent and emigrated leukocytes after I/R was attenuated by pretreatment with a MAb against, either P-selectin, GPIIb/IIIa, or fibrinogen, as well as an Arg-Gly-Asp peptide. Whereas thrombocytopenia greatly blunted leukocyte emigration, it did not alter the leukocyte adherence response to I/R. These findings suggest that platelet-associated P-selectin contributes to the accumulation of leukocytes in postischemic tissue via a mechanism that alters transendothelial leukocyte migration.
