摘要
目的探讨T淋巴细胞亚群、白细胞介素10(IL10)、γ干扰素(IFNγ)在特发性血小板减少性紫癜(ITP)中的变化及其用地塞米松(DEX)治疗的影响。方法采用DEX治疗ITP患儿,分别于治疗前后采取静脉血标本,应用改良碱性磷酸酶抗碱性磷酸酶(APAAP)法及酶标记免疫吸附测定(ELISA)法分别检测T细胞亚群及血清IL10、IFNγ的含量。结果ITP患儿DEX治疗前外周血CD+4降低,CD+8升高,CD+4/CD+8显著降低;DEX治疗后CD+4、CD+8均降低,其中以CD+8降低尤为显著,但CD+4/CD+8明显高于治疗前。ITP患儿DEX治疗前血清IFNγ显著升高,治疗后则降至正常水平,IFNγ与外周血小板计数呈显著负相关,但与T淋巴细胞亚群无显著相关性。ITP患儿DEX治疗前血清IL10显著降低,治疗后升高,ITP患儿血清IL10与外周血血小板计数呈显著正相关,但与T淋巴细胞亚群无显著相关性。结论ITP患儿T淋巴细胞亚群表达及比例失调,IFNγ产生增多,IL10产生减少,提示辅助T淋巴细胞亚型(Th1/Th2)功能异常。DEX治疗ITP能有效缓解病情。
Objective To investigate the changes in T lymphocyte subsets, interleukin 10 (IL 10) and gamma interferon (IFN γ) in patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and the effect of dexamethasone (DEX) treatment. Methods The blood samples were collected in ITP patients prior and post DEX treatment. T lymphocyte subsets of peripheral blood were examined by using APAAP method, and serum IL 10, IFN γ levels were measured by using ELISA assay. Additionally, 12 healthy volunteers served as normal controls. Results Compared to normal controls, these ITP patients showed an elevation in percentage of CD + 8 cells, but decrease in CD + 4 cells as well as ratio of CD + 4/CD + 8 in peripheral blood. After DEX treatment, the expression of both CD + 4 cells and CD + 8 cells was profoundly inhibited, especially for CD + 8 cells, while the ratio of CD + 4/CD + 8 was significantly increased. Serum levels of IFN γ increased obviously in children with ITP and negatively correlated with platelet counts, but they were reduced by DEX. However, serum levels of IL 10, which were diminished in these patients and positively correlated with platelet counts, were increased after DEX treatment. Nevertheless, no marked correlation was found between IFN γ or IL 10 levels and T lymphocyte subsets. Conclusion In ITP patients, abnormal distribution of T lymphocyte subsets and changes in serum IFN γ, IL 10 levels may imply the dysfunction of Th1/Th2. Treatment with DEX has beneficial effect on ITP, which appears to be associated with the regulation of T lymphocyte subsets expression and cytokine production.
