Therefore, it is important to know how a patient's oxygen condition influences cells in order to treat the patient. Nevertheless, there is no research on how hypoxia and hyperoxia influence PMN cell and inflammatory cytokine as inflammatory cells playing a critical role in post-trauma immunity function. Therefore, this study tries to find how hypoxia and hyperoxia, among types of the respiratory failure induced cell damage that can arise in the course of traumatic damage and treatment, influences apoptosis of PMN cells and IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α as inflammatory cytokines. This study is expected to be used as a fundamental material for treating relevant patients.
