BACKGROUND: The authors previously demonstrated postoperative preservation of the immune function measured by delayed-type skin reaction and tumor growth after laparoscopic surgery, as compared with laparotomy. For further elucidation of the origin of the demonstrated immune preservation, peritoneal macrophage (PMo) function was investigated 1 h after different surgical procedures. METHODS: Female NMRI mice were divided into five groups: anesthesia only, abdominal skin incision, laparotomy, peritoneal carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation, and peritoneal air insufflation. Escherichia Coli phagocytosis, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) release of isolated PMo were investigated. RESULTS: All invasive interventions reduced the PMo phagocytosis by factors of approximately 2 to 4.7, as compared with the sham control group. Spontaneous ex vivo TNF-alpha release was significantly increased whenever the abdominal cavity was exposed to ambient air. The macrophage's ability to release TNF-alpha after E. coli exposure was diminished in the abdominal air exposure groups, as compared with the CO2 insufflation group. CONCLUSION: Reduced phagocytosis 1 h after surgical interventions suggests a contribution of PMo to the altered immune function. When exposed to CO2, PMo show a decreased basal TNF-alpha release. However, PMo also show an increased TNF-alpha release after a second immune stimulation (E. coli), suggesting a greater competency of interaction in an immune defense reaction after CO2 exposure.
