Unfortunately, during pathological conditions resulting in chronic hemolysis cell-free hemoglobin (Hb) is released into the circulation which releases free heme, resulting in several complications. One approach to prevent these toxicities is administration of supplemental scavenger proteins, haptoglobin (Hp) and hemopexin (Hpx). The goal of this body of work is to objectively measure levels of vascular reactivity and inflammatory profiles after an infusion of acellular hemoglobin in animals that were given a co-administration of PEGylated human apohemoglobin (PEG-apoHb), a hemopexin (Hpx)-mimetic that can scavenge free heme from hemoglobin, together with human plasma-derived Hp that can scavenge dimerized Hb. Utilizing intravital microscopy, Golden Syrian hamsters instrumented with a dorsal window chamber were used to evaluate the in vivo effects of 4 experimental groups that were then challenged with a hypovolemic injection (10% of the animal's blood volume) of human Hb (hHb, 5 g/dL). The four experimental groups consisted of: 1) lactated Ringer's (control), 2) PEG-apoHb only, 3) Hp only, and 4) PEG-apoHb + Hp. The microvascular hemodynamics (diameter and flow) in arterioles and venules were recorded at baseline, 20 minutes after treatment, and 20 minutes after hHb challenge. Systemic parameters (blood pressure and heart rate), blood gases (pH, pCO2, and pO2), blood parameters (Hb concentration and hematocrit), and multiorgan functionality/ inflammation were also measured. Our results suggest that co-administration of PEG-apoHb + Hp as a booster prior to the infusion of acellular hemoglobin significantly prevented vasoconstriction in the microcirculation, significantly increased the number of functional capillaries, and significantly reduced inflammation.
