类风湿关节炎患者外周血单核细胞亚型及其表面抗原和相关细胞因子表达特征的研究
Study on expression characteristics of peripheral blood monocyte subtypes,surface antigens and related cytokines in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
摘要
Abstract
Objective:To investigate variation of peripheral blood monocyte subtypes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA),to study variation of surface antigen expression intensity and plasma related cytokine content of monocytes of each subtype,and to discuss their clinical application value.Methods:Percentage of monocyte subtypes and mean fluorescence intensity(MFI)of monocyte surface markers(HLA-DR,CD64,CD11b)in peripheral blood of 38 patients with RA were detected by multi-parameter flow cytometry,and differences were statistically analyzed compared with 40 healthy controls(HV group).Plasma levels of five cyto-kines(IL-2,IL-6,IL-10,TNF-α and IFN-γ)were detected by flow fluorescence microsphere technology.Linear correlation analysis was performed to determine correlation between percentage of monocyte subtypes and MFI of their surface markers and expression of related cytokines in RA patients.Disease activity 28(DAS28)score was performed in RA patients to study its association with percent-age of monocyte subtypes and plasma cytokines.Results:Compared with control group,percentage of classical monocytes in RA pa-tients decreased significantly(P<0.05),while percentage of intermediate monocytes and non-classical monocytes increased signifi-cantly(P<0.01).HLA-DR expression(MFI)on monocyte subsets in RA group was significantly higher than HV group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).CD64 expression(MFI)on intermediate monocytes and non-classical monocytes in RA group was significantly higher than HV group(P<0.01 or P<0.001).CD11b expression(MFI)on intermediate monocytes in RA group was significantly higher than HV group(P<0.001).In RA group,percentage of intermediate monocytes was positively correlated with contents of IL-6,TNF-α and IFN-γ(P<0.01).HLA-DR expression(MFI)on intermediate monocytes was positively correlated with TNF-α content(P<0.05);CD64 expres-sion(MFI)on non-classical monocytes was positively correlated with contents of IL-2 and IL-10(P<0.05).In RA group,percentage of intermediate monocytes was positively correlated with DAS28(P<0.001);plasma IL-6 and TNF-α levels were positively correlated with DAS28(P<0.01).Conclusion:Characteristic expression of intermediate monocytes and their surface antigens are closely related to occurrence of RA,and related inflammation is triggered by secretion of related cytokines.Monocyte subtype detection can be a new experimental diagnostic index for RA.Dynamic monitoring of peripheral blood monocyte subtypes and plasma IL-6 and TNF-α in RA patients during treatment is helpful to guide clinical treatment of RA.关键词
