ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

TNF-alpha plays a major role in producing left ventricular dysfunction cardio-myopathy pulmonary edema and inhibits the compensatory mechanism of congestive heart failure. IL-6 is an acute reactant of immune reaction and also known to control immune reaction but its function in the myocyte was not clearly investigated. Author's performed this experiment to investigate the contents of TNF-alpha and IL-6 on the assumption that TNF-alpha and IL-6 may reside in nonfailing heart that has gone cardiac surgery and play some role in cardiac function. MATERIAL AND

METHOD:

Right auricular tissues were sampled from 12 patients who had undergone total corrective surgery for both congenital and acquired heart diseases from January 1998 to June 1998 in Kosin Universcfy Gospel hospital. The quantitive analysis of TNF-alpha and IL-6 were assessed by ELISA method in right auricular tissue. Hemodynamic values about the pressure of ventricle atrium aorta pulmonary artery and cardiac index pulmonary and systemic vascular resistance and cardiac output were measured by echocardiography and cardiac catheterization and biochemical analyses of LDH & AST were done before operation. statistical analysis was by Paired Student t-test. Patients were divided into children(under 15 years olds) and adults groups and the data was compared beween two groups.

CONCLUSIONS:

Mild pulmonary hypertension and increased pulmonary vascular resistance were existed in both group. The contents of tissue TNF-alpha IL-6 in each group were independent of each data.
