Elevated levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) correlate with the development of postinjury multiple organ failure. Soluble ICAM-1 secretion is known to be induced in endothelial cells and monocytes by diverse inflammatory stimuli. We have found that incubation of quiescent polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) with sICAM-1 elicits elastase release and, more recently, that cross-linking CD18 receptors on PMNs also produces elastase release. Consequently, our study hypothesis was that sICAM-1 provokes PMN elastase release through its interaction with CD18.
