Immune protective effect of recombinant growth hormone in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease complicated with respiratory failure treated by ventilator therapy / 中国生化药物杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the immune protective effect of recombinant growth hormone on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD) patients with typeⅡin respiratory failure during the application of ventilator.Methods 52 patients with COPD with respiratory failure in Taizhou City Hospital from July 2014 to November 2015 in this study who were treated with ventilator therapy were divided into two groups.The control group received routine treatment, and the treatment group received more with recombinant growth hormone 8 U/d subcutaneous injected.Before and after treatment 14 days,determination of nutritional indicators,immune function,inflammatory markers and indicators of oxidative stress.Results Compared with before treatment,levels of total protein,albumin,transferrin and fibronectin in 2 groups after treatment increased,levels of IgM,IgG,CD4 +,CD8 +and CD4 +/CD8 +increased,levels of TNF-α,IL-8 and CRP decreased,levels of MDA,GSH and TAO decreased,levels of SOD increased(P<0.05), compared with the control group,levels of total protein,albumin,transferrin and fibronectin in the treatment group were higher,levels of IgM,IgG,CD4 +, CD8 +and CD4 +/CD8 +were higher,levels of TNF-α,IL-8 and CRP were lower,levels of MDA,GSH and TAO were lower,levels of SOD were higher (P<0.05).Conclusion Recombinant growth hormone has immune function protective effect on the COPD patients with type II respiratory failure in the process of breathing machine, which can improve the nutritional index and reduce the inflammatory reaction.
