ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the activated state of TH1/TH2 cytokines and T lymphocytes and to explore the pathogenesis of ankylosing sondylitis.Methods:Cytokine levels of Th1(IFN-?、TNF-?、IL-2)and Th2(IL-10、IL-5、IL-4) in plasma, percentages of CD3 +、CD4 +、CD8 + T cells、B cells(CD19 +) NK cells(CD16 +56 +)and CD3 +HLA-DR +、CD4 +HLA-DR +、CD8 +HLA-DR + T cells in peripheral blood lymphocytes were detected by Flow Cytometry.Results:In patients with AS ,plasma levels of TNF-?、IL-2 were significantly lower than that of healthy controls. IL-10 were significantly higher than that of healthy controls. In AS patients, percentages of CD3 +and CD8 + T cell from peripheral blood lymphocytes were significantly lower than that of healthy controls. Percentages of CD8 +HLA-DR + T cell were significantly lower than that of healthy controls. CD4 +HLA-DR +T cell was significantly highter than that of healthy controls.Conclusion:In patients with AS , lower levels of TNF-?、 IL-2 and higher level IL-10 at plasma indicate an inclination between TH1 and TH2, such as an impaired TH1 cytokine profile and an activated TH2 cytokine profile, especially in TNF-?.
