Study on the Relationship between Patients with Hepatitis B Viral Loads and Immunoglobulin A,G,M and Complement C3,C4 / 现代检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the relationship between Hepatitis B patients with different viral loads and immunoglob-ulin A,G,M and complement C3,C4.Methods Firstly,followed by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR detection 210 cases of hepatitis B patients with HBV-DNA levels,according to 10n copies/ml different viral load detection results,it was divided into 102 ~108 copies/ml of the experimental groups.Then the experimental groups and control group were simulta-neously detected in immunoglobulin A,G,M and complement C3,C4.Analysed the correlation between HBV loads and im-munoglobulin A,G,M and complement C3,C4.Results When the viral loads of hepatitis B patients were 105 ~108 copies/ml,the testing results of IgA,IgG and IgM were both increasing (U =12.43,10.96,6.42,P <0.01),while C3 and C4 were both decreasing (U =8.37,6.0,P <0.01).When the viral loads of hepatitis B patients were 102 ~ 104 copies/ml,only IgA and IgM were increasing (U =2.36,2.04,P <0.05),the other testing results had no statistical significance.Between the test of 7 experimental groups compared with each other,only 104 group and 105 group had significantly changed (IgA and IgM were increasing,C4 was decreasing,U =2.39,2.46,2.09,P <0.05,IgG was increasing,U = 3.25,P <0.01),but between other low viral loads or high viral loads were not significantly differences.Conclusion The different viral loads of hepatitis B patients could cause the different changes of immunoglobulin A,G,M and complement C3,C4,especially in the 4 groups from 105 to 108 copies/ml.Followed by increasing in viral loads,there were immunoglobulin A,G,M increasing and comple-ment C3,C4 decreasing,and also serious impaction on the immune function of organism.There was a positive correlation be-tween viral loads in vivo and immune damages,correlation coefficient (γ =0.967,P <0.01).When the viral loads from 104 to 105 copies/ml,the testing results had changed significantly.It suggest that should control viral loads under 104 copies/ml in the hepatitis B antiviral treatment,so the effect of immune function damage will be the minimum.
