摘要
目的探讨免疫因子白细胞介素-21(IL-21)及白细胞介素-17(IL-17)和IgA肾病(IgAN)进展的相关性。方法纳入经肾穿刺活检明确诊断为IgAN的患者共34例,收集IgAN患者清晨空腹静脉血清及临床资料,用ELISA方法检测IgAN患者IL-21、IL-17的表达,比较血清IL-21、IL-17的表达与肌酐(Scr)、尿酸(UA)、评估肾小球滤过率(eGFR)、24 h尿蛋白定量之间的相关性。结果 IgAN患者血清中IL-21的表达与尿酸和24 h尿蛋白呈正相关性(r=0.341、0.449,P<0.05)。IL-21的表达与Scr和eGFR之间无相关性(P>0.05)。IgAN患者血清中IL-17的表达与Scr、eGFR、24 h尿蛋白呈正相关性(r=0.347、0.347、0.363,P<0.05)。结论 IL-21和IL-17与监测IgAN的临床指标存在相关性,可作为IgAN疾病进展的预测因子。
Objective To investigate the correlation between the progress of IgA nephropathy(IgAN) and immunokines interleukin-21(IL-21),interleukin-17(IL-17).Methods 34 patients with IgAN diagnosed by renal biopsy were enrolled. The fasting venous serum were collected in the morning and the clinical data of IgAN patients were collected,including age,sex,medication history,24-hour urinary protein quantification,serum uric acid,creatinine and evaluation of glomerular filtration rate(eGFR). The expression of IL-21 and IL-17 in IgAN patients was detected by ELISA. The correlation between the expression of IL-21 and IL-17 in serum and creatinine(SCr),uric acid(UA),glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) and 24-hour urinary protein quantification was compared.Results The expression of IL-21 in serum of IgAN patients was positively correlated with uric acid and 24-hour urinary protein(r=0.341,0.449,P<0.05). There was no correlation between IL-21 and creatinine and eGFR(P>0.05). The expression of IL-17 in serum of IgAN patients was positively correlated with creatinine,eGFR and 24-hour urinary protein(r=0.347,0.347,0.363,P<0.05). There was no correlation between the expression of IL-17 and uric acid(P>0.05).Conclusion IL-21 and IL-17 are correlated with clinical indicators of IgAN monitoring,and may be used as predictors of IgAN disease progress.
