Study on the changes and clinical significance of the DNT cells and T lymphocyte subtype in children with infectious mononucleosis / 中国医师杂志

Objective To study on the changes of the DNT cells and T lymphocyte subtype in children with infectious mononucleosis (IM) and its clinical significance.Methods The flow cytometry (FCM) was used to detected the DNT cells and other T lymphocyte subtype in 48 cases of IM.Results The study showed that DNT cells( 9.39 ± 4.89 )% were greatly increased in comparison with normal controls (NC) (4.26 ± 1.68)% ( P ＜0.01 ).CD4 cells(21.45 ±9.87)% were decreased ( P ＜0.01 ) and CD8 cells increased in comparison with NC (32.43 ± 5.07) % ( P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusion DNT cells and T lymphocyte subtype can be used to evaluate the immune function of children with infectious mononucleosis (IM) and provide guidance for adoptive immunotherapy.

Analyze the relationship between serum XCL1 levels and the immune injury in CHB patients / 中国医师杂志

Objective To explore the relevance between serum XCL1 levels and liver damage in hepatitis B patients.Methods The serum concentration of XCL1 was detected by enzyme linked immu-nosorbent assay (ELISA).Peripheral blood T-cell subsets were detected by flow cytometry (FCM).Liver function was assayed by automatic biochemistry analyzer, hepatitis B antigen/antibody semi-quantitative index was detected by time-resolved fluorescence analyzer, and HBV-DNA load was detected by automatic fluorescence quantitative PCR.Results Serum concentration of XCL1 in control group ( n = 20), mild chronic hepatitis B (CHB) group ( n =29), moderate CHB group ( n =20) and severe CHB group ( n =26)were (8.24±1.94) pg/ml, (10.99±1.94) pg/ml, (12.83 ±2.59) pg/ml, (13.72 ±3.13) pg/ml,respectively.The concentration of XCL1 in all CHB groups was significantly higher than control group ( P＜ 0.05 ).The concentration of XCL1 in severe CHB group was significantly higher than mild CHB group (P ＜ 0.05).XCL1 was positively correlated with ALT, AST, TBIL and DBIL, and the coefficients were (r =0.463、 0.472、 0.413、 0.440, P ＜0.01 ), respectively.The serum XCL1 levels in hepatitis B virus with low load group was lower than hepatitis B virus with high load group.The percentage of CD4 + T in hepatitis B virus with low load group and high load group were (41.26 ± 11.33)%, (33.01 ± 5.96)%,and the difference was statistically significant.Conclusion Serum concentrations of XCL1 were closely related to the degree of liver inflammation in hepatitis B patients.XCL1 may be involved in the process of chronic hepatitis B.
