摘要
目的:探讨多发性硬化(MS)患者静脉血T淋巴细胞亚群及相关细胞因子的意义。方法:采用流式细胞术(FCM)检测31例MS患者治疗前(MS组)、泼尼松治疗4周后(泼尼松组)及20例健康者(正常组)外周血Th1(CD4~+IFN-γ~+)、Th2(CD4~+IL-4~+)、Th17(CD4~+IL-17~+)、Treg(CD4~+FoxP3~+)、Tc1(CD4-CD8~+IFN-γ~+)和Tc2(CD4-CD8~+IL-4~+)T淋巴细胞亚群变化;流式微球芯片捕获技术(CBA)检测血浆细胞因子IFN-γ、TNF-α、IL-17A、IL-4和IL-10的含量。结果:(1)FCM分析结果显示,与正常组比较,MS组Th1细胞和Th17细胞均明显升高(P<0.05);Treg细胞和Tc1细胞显著下降(P<0.01),Th17/Treg比例明显升高(P<0.01);与MS组比较,泼尼松组Tc1、Tc2和Treg细胞百分率均明显升高(P<0.01),而Th1和Th17细胞显著下降(P<0.05),Th17/Treg比值降低(P<0.01);(2)CBA法检测结果显示,与正常组比较,MS组IFN-γ和IL-17A含量升高(P<0.05;P<0.01),IL-4和IL-10含量明显降低(P<0.01);与MS组比较,泼尼松组IL-17A含量明显降低(P<0.01),IL-4和IL-10均显著升高(P<0.01)。结论:MS的发生可能主要与Th17上调和Treg下调有关,提示临床上针对MS靶向下调Th17和上调Treg,纠正Th17/Treg比例失衡,具有潜在应用价值。
Objective: To investigate the levels of T lymphocyte subsets and related cytokines in 31 cases of the patients with multiple sclerosis(MS)and their significance to clinic. Methods: The lymphocyte subsets including Th1(CD4~+IFN-γ~+),Th17(CD4~+IL-17~+),Treg(CD4~+FoxP3~+),Tc1(CD4-CD8~+IFN-γ~+)and Tc2(CD4-CD8~+IL-4~+)in peripheral blood mononuclear cells were determined by flow cytometry in three different groups;concentrations of plasma cytokines including IFN-γ,TNF-α,、IL-17 A,IL-4 and IL-10 were determined by cytometric bead array. Results: Compared with normal control group,the percentages of Th1 and Th17 cells wereincreased significantly(P<0.05),while Treg and Tc1 cells were decreased significantly(P<0.01),the proportion of Th17/Treg was increased significantly in MS group(P<0.01);compared with MS group, the percentages of Tc1,Tc2 andTreg cells were increased significantly(P<0.05),while Th17 and Th1 cells were reduced significantly(P<0.01),and the proportion of Th17/Treg was reduced significantly(P<0.01)in Prednisone group;Compared with normal control group,the concentration of IFN-γ and IL-17 A were increased significantly(P<0.05;P<0.01), while the concentration of IL-4 and IL-10 were decreased significantly in MS group(P<0.01); compared with MS group, the concentration of IL-17 A were decreased obviously(P<0.05;P<0.01), while the concentration of IL-4 and IL-10 were increased significantly in prednisone group(P <0.01).Conclusion: The mechanism of multiple sclerosis might relate to Treg down-regulation,and Th17 cells up-regulation.Experiments in this paper show that it has potential application value forTreg up-regulation,and Th17 cells down-regulation,which could be used asan immunomdulatory therapy in the patients with clinical multiple sclerosis.
