摘要
目的:探讨外周血B淋巴细胞活化因子(BAFF)和B淋巴细胞活化因子受体(BAFF-R)之间的相关性以及两者与I型自身免疫性肝炎(AIH-I)患者临床特征的关系.方法:检测30例AIH-I患者治疗前后外周血BAFF(酶联免疫吸附法)及BAFF-R(流式细胞仪)的表达水平和30名健康志愿者外周血中二者的表达水平,同时收集实验对象相应的IgG、ALT、AST、GLO、CRP检查结果,通过SPSS统计软件进行分析.结果:AIH-I患者外周血BAFF及BAFF-R水平较正常对照组有统计学差异(747.83ngL±66.96ngLvs203.50ngL±43.99ngL;18.78%±5.08%vs1.98%±0.89%,均P<0.05);AIH-I患者外周血BAFF与BAFF-R水平呈正相关(P<0.05);AIH-I患者外周血BAFF及BAFF-R水平在治疗前后有统计学差异(747.83ngL±66.96ngLvs582.83ngL±51.89ngL;18.78%±5.08%vs9.93%±3.53%,均P<0.05);AIH-I患者外周血BAFF及BAFF-R水平与疾病活动指标(IgG、ALT、AST、GLO、CRP)水平无明显相关(均P>0.05).结论:AIH-I患者外周血BAFF与BAFF-R水平明显升高,激素治疗前后差异显著,二者与疾病的发展过程相关,对评价疾病的治疗具有一定的指导意义.
AIM: To detect serum level of B-lymphocyte activating factor (BAFF) and percentage of B cells positive for B-cell activating factor receptor (BAFF-R) on B cells in patients with type I autoimmune hepatitis (AIH-I) and to analyze their relations to the clinical features of AIH-I. METHODS: Thirty patients with AIH-I and 30 healthy subjects were included in the study. Serum BAFF was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the percentage of BAFF-R-positive B cells was measured by flow cytometry. Meanwhile, serum levels of AL T, AST, GLO, CRP and IgG were measured. RESULTS: There were significant differences in mean serum BAFF level and percentage of BAFF-R-positive B cells between AIH-I patients and healthy subjects (747.83 ng L ± 66.96 ngL vs 203.50 ngL ± 43.99 ngL; 18.78% ± 5.08% vs 1.98% ± 0.89%, both P 0.05). There is a positive correlation between serum BAFF level and percentage of BAFF-R-positive B cells in AIH-I patients (P 0.05). Significant differences were noted in mean serum BAFF and percentage of BAFF-R-positive B cells in AIH-I patients between before and after treatment (BAFF: 747.83 ngL ± 66.96 ngL vs 582.83 ngL ± 51.89 ngL, P 0.05; BAFF-R: 18.78% ± 5.08% vs 9.93% ± 3.53%, P 0.05). Serum BAFF level and percentage of BAFF-R-positive B cells showed no correlation with serum ALT, AST, GLO, CRP, or IgG in AIH-I patients (all P 0.05). CONCLUSION: The level of serum BAFF and percentage of BAFF-R-positive B cells are significantly increased in AIH-I patients but significantly descended after treatment.
