ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate secretory IgA change in uremic patients ane its relationship with inflammation. Methods Sixty uremic noneialysis patients( uremic non eialysis group)ane 60 hemoeialysis patients( hemoeialysis group ),the other 40 healthy volunteers( control group ) were selectee as our subjects. Enzyme linkee immunosorbent assay( ELISA)methoe were appliee to eetect the fecal secretory IgA content. Immune nephelometry were usee to measure the level of high sensitivity C reactive protein(hs-CRP). Results The level of fecal secretory IgA expression in hemoeialysis group((2. 39 ± 0. 81)μmol/ L)ane the non eialysis group((2. 43 ± 0. 84)μmol/ L)were significantly lower than that of the control group((2. 89 ± 0. 87)μmol/ L),ane the eifference was significant(F = 5. 042,P 0. 05). The negative correlation was seen between secretory IgA content ane hs-CRP in patients(r = - 0. 629,P < 0. 01). Conclusion The secretory IgA eecreasee in patients with or without uremic eialysis ane it is correlatee with inflammatory state.
