ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the application value of dynamic monitoring of serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) and stromal cell-derived factor 1 α (SDF-1α) in patients with acute leukemia (AL).Methods:A total of 187 patients with AL admitted to the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from March 2017 to August 2018 were selected and 90 healthy subjects at the same period were selected as the healthy controls. The levels of serum sIL-2R and SDF-1α were detected at the initial diagnosis, remission phase and relapse phase, respectively. The clinical value of dynamic monitoring of sIL-2R and SDF-1α was analyzed.Results:Among 187 patients with AL, 135 patients (72.19%) had complete remission (CR) after chemotherapy, 52 patients (27.81%) had partial remission, and 43 patients (31.85%) relapsed. The level of serum sIL-2R at the AL initial diagnosis period was (533±32) U/ml, which was higher than that in the healthy controls [(247±30) U/ml], and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 71.976, P < 0.01); the level of serum SDF-1α at the AL initial diagnosis was (2 968±305) pg/ml, which was higher than that in the healthy controls [(1 358±160) pg/ml], and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 47.043, P < 0.01). The levels of serum sIL-2R [(308±30) U/ml] and SDF-1α [(1 576±184) pg/ml] in the CR phase were lower than those in the initial diagnosis of patients with AL; and the levels of sIL-2R [(599±36) U/ml] and SDF-1α [(2 894±301) pg/ml] in the relapse phase were higher than those in the CR phase of patients with AL (all P < 0.01). Conclusions:The levels of serum sIL-2R and SDF-1α in patients with AL are increased, and there are big differences in the levels of sIL-2R and SDF-1α at the initial diagnosis, remission phase, and relapse phase. Dynamic monitoring of both can provide the data support for early clinical intervention.
