Abstract

We assessed the effect of ketoprofen and prednisolone on the complement receptors (CR1 and CR3) and Fc gamma RIII expression on polymorphonuclears in an ex vivo study, using a randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel design. Twenty-four healthy, male, Caucasian volunteers received either oral ketoprofen 100 mg twice daily, or prednisolone 5 mg twice daily, or placebo twice daily for 7.5 days. CR1, CR3 and Fc gamma RIII on unstimulated and FMLP-, C5a-, LTB4-, and GM-CSF-stimulated neutrophils were assessed using specific monoclonal antibodies and flow cytometry. No statistically significant drug effect was found for CR1, CR3, and Fc gamma RIII expression on polymorphonuclears. An in vitro study also yielded negative results. These findings do not support the hypothesis that the effect of non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs on neutrophils is due to CR1, CR3, or Fc gamma RIII modulation.
