Widespread microvascular injury followed by vessel obstruction may
lead to disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). We describe a
murine model wherein leukocytes interacting with inflamed microvessels
in vivo are activated by antibodies. Treatment of tumor necrosis factor
 (TNF-)-primed mice with anti-Ly-6G antibodies reproduced many
of the features of septic or traumatic shock including microvessel
obstruction and coagulation, severe vasculitis, respiratory difficulties, and vascular leakage. Mice lacking either E-selectin or
P-selectin were protected from this reaction as were animals treated
with a combination of either selectin-blocking antibodies and heparin
or a selectin antagonist plus heparin. Combined blockade of
leukocyte/platelet adhesion and coagulation may provide convincing protection in DIC.
