摘要
目的探讨精神分裂症患者白介素-10(IL-1β)基因多态性及核因子-κβ(NF—κβ)对IL-1β水平的影响。方法采用聚合酶链反应-限制性内切酶方法检测161例精神分裂症患者(患者组)和135名正常对照者(对照组)的IL-1β基因-511多态性位点和+3953多态性位点的基因型及等位基因频率;采用酶联免疫吸附法检测IL-1β在患者组和对照组血清中的蛋白表达及外周血单个核细胞(PβMC)NF—κβ活性;采用逆转录-聚合酶链反应方法检测PβMC IL-1βmRNA表达水平。结果(1)IL-1β-511G/A位点的等位基因G与精神分裂症存在名义上的关联(P=0.038,多重检验P=0.240),但+3953G/A多态性与精神分裂症无关联(P〉0.05)。(2)患者组血清IL-1β水平[(25.93±13.30)ng/L]、PBME中IL-1βmRNA(1.30±0.30)表达以及NF-κβ活性[(0.28±0.21)μg/L]均高于对照组[(14.19±7.86)ng/L、0.97±0.27、(0.20±0.17)μg/L;P均〈0.05];携带IL-1β基因-511A/G和+3953A/G位点基因型GA和AA的精神分裂症患者较GG携带者的IL-1β水平明显增高(P〈0.05)。结论精神分裂症患者外周血IL-1β水平的增高参与了疾病的病理生理过程,基因多态性和转录因子NF—κB均对细胞因子的分泌起了-定作用。
Objective To explore the effects of interleukin-1β (IL-1β ) gene polymorphism and nuclear factor-κB on serum IL-1β level in schizophrenia. Methods Amplification of the target site in the IL- 1β gene -511 and +3953 were carried out by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 161 patients who met the CCMD-3 diagnostic criteria for schizophrenia and 135 healthy control subjects. The allelic and genotypic types were determined by restriction fragment length polymorphism. The serum IL-1β level and peripheral blood mononuclear cell ( PBMC ) NF-κB activation of 83 patients and 65 healthy control subjects were estimated using commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits according to the manufacturer's instructions. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique was applied to analyze PBMC mRNA expression of IL-1β. Results It showed a significant increase of the IL-1 [3 -511 allele G in schizophrenia patients as compared to healthy controls. While there were no relation between IL-1β + 3953G/A and schizophrenia. Serum level ( 25.93± 13.30 ) ng,/L and PBMC mRNA expression( 1.30 ±0. 30) of IL-1β and NF-κB activation(0. 28 ± 0. 21 ) Ixg/L in the schizophrenia group were significantly higher than those in the control subjects ( 14. 19± 7.86) ng/L, (0. 97 ± 0. 27 ), (0. 20 ± 0. 17) pog/L respectively (P 〈0. 05). Serum IL-1β levels in the subjects with AA and G/A genotypes were significantly higher than those of the subjects with GG genotype in the IL-1β gene -511 and + 3953 target site. Conclusions The higher serum level of IL-1β in schizophrenia patients may be involved in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Gene polymorphism and nuclear factor-κB may be related to the secretion of cytokine.
