    AbstractFluid resuscitation is essential in the treatment of septic shock. This study examined the effect of resuscitative fluids (RFs) on sepsis-induced neutrophil-endothelial cell interactions. The RFs studied were 0.9% saline (NS), Ringer's lactate (RL), 7.5% saline and dextran-70 (DHS), 5% albumin (AL), and 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HS). Platelets and neutrophils were obtained from normal volunteers, and plasma was obtained from patients with septic shock. Microslides coated with human umbilical endothelial vein cell (HUVEC) and platelet-neutrophil solutions were primed with septic plasma with/without the RF. Neutrophil rolling velocity, leukoaggregation, and neutrophil adherence were determined. Separately, platelet-neutrophil solutions and endothelial cells were exposed to septic plasma with/without RFs, and cellular activation, neutrophil superoxide production, and endothelial cell E-selectin expression were assessed. Ringer's lactate decreased neutrophil rolling velocity and increased aggregation and adherence. Normal saline had no effect on these parameters. Hydroxyethyl starch and AL increased neutrophil rolling velocity and decreased adherence and aggregation when HUVECs were preincubated with the RF. Dextran-70 and 7.5% saline decreased neutrophil-endothelial cell interactions in both HUVECs and platelet/neutrophil preincubated experiments. Ringer's lactate increased activation of neutrophils and platelets, whereas AL decreased their activation. Other than NS, all the RFs increased neutrophil superoxide production. Ringer's lactate increased endothelial cell E-selectin release, whereas AL and HS both decreased its release. These data suggest that fluids used in the resuscitation of septic shock vary in their effects on sepsis-induced neutrophil-endothelial cell interactions. Ringer's lactate amplifies the effects of sepsis, while NS appears to have minimal impact. Dextran-70 and 7.5% saline, AL, and HS in varying degrees decrease sepsis-related neutrophil-endothelial cell interactions and activation.
