Study on relation among sICAM-1 level change in the patients with chronic viral hepatic disease,viral replication and the clinical significance / 吉林大学学报(医学版)

ABSTRACT

Objective: To observe relation among sICAM-1 level in the sera of patients with chronic viral hepatic disease, viral replication and the clinical significance. Methods: The level changes of sICAM-1, IL-1,IL-8 and TNFa in the sera of patients with chronic hepatitis B(CH),chronic severe hepatitis B(CSH) and hepatocirrhosis (HC) were detected by ELISA. Results: The levels of sICAM-1,IL-1,IL-8 and TNFa in sera of the patients with chronic viral hepatic disease were significantly higher than those of healthy control group(P<0.01). The bilirubin level in the sera of patients with chronic viral hepatic disease of different clinical types positively correlated with sICAM-1 and cytokine activities. The sICAM-1 level in the sera of HBV-DNA or HBeAg positive patients was significantly higher than those of negative patients(P<0.05,P<0.01). Conclusion: The sICAM-1 level and activities of cytokine IL-1,IL-8 and TNFa as well as the bilirubin level in the sera of the patients can reflect the necrosis degree of hepatocytes, and the sICAM-1 level and activities of IL-1,IL-8 and TNFa were related to state of HBV carrier or the active degree of HBV in patients with hepatic disease.
