Peritoneal adhesions due to peritonitis make surgery more difficult and may cause complications. Clarifying the formation mechanism of peritoneal adhesions could help identify methods useful for their prevention. We cultured mesothelial monolayers on plates and microcarriers to simulate the parietal and visceral peritoneum, respectively. We then investigated the effects of lipopolysacchride (LPS) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) on the homologous adhesion of these mesothelial monolayers. There was no adhesion of mesothelial monolayers in the control medium. When monolayers were cultured with endotoxin (LPS), approximately 90% of the microcarriers adhered to the mesothelial microplate. Adhesions occurred at LPS concentrations of 10 ng/ml and increased linearly in a dose-dependent manner. Kinetic studies revealed that the mesothelial adhesion appeared at 12 hr, and that 90% of the microcarriers were adherent after 24 hr. Open intercellular spaces were observed after a 24-hr treatment with LPS. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the mesothelial cells adhered to the naked glass. LPS also caused increased permeability of the mesothelial monolayer. TNF did not cause any significant adhesion. Through our experiments we were able to develop an in vitro model of peritoneal adhesion using peritoneal mesothelial cell culture. Endotoxin caused an increase in homologous adhesion of peritoneal mesothelial monolayers, which may correspond to the initial stage of peritoneal adhesion formation in peritonitis.
