Figure 4. Effect of trauma wound fluids versus trauma plasma on receptor-induced total PMN RB.

Figure 4.

Here, healthy PMN were incubated for 25 minutes with either 10% wound fluid (n=4) or 10% peripheral plasma sampled from the same patient on the same day (n=4). fMLF-induced total RB was then measured for 30 min (left sided graph). RB AUCs for 30 min were then calculated (right hand graph) and compared using one-way ANOVA/Tukey’s test (**p<0.01; ****p<0.001). Both plasma and wound fluids suppressed RB when compared to pre-incubation in control (volunteer) plasmas, but wound fluids were noted to be significantly more suppressive of RB than plasmas collected at the same time point.
