TLRs, Siglecs and CD163 are cell surface receptors that play an important role in immune response and sepsis. The objective of this study was to assess changes in the expression levels of several of these receptors (TLR2, TLR4, CD163, Siglec-1, Siglec-3, Siglec-5 and Siglec-10) on the surface of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from pigs with sepsis caused by Haemophilus parasuis. Flow cytometry was employed to analyze samples from an experimental infection and from cell cultures. A significant increase in CD163, TLR2 and Siglec-3 expression during infection was seen. However, in vitro exposure of peripheral blood monocytes to bacteria or sera from infected pigs did not increase the expression of these receptors. These changes may be due to recruitment of monocytes into the blood compartment in response to H. parasuis-induced sepsis.
