Changes of Caveolin-1, matrix metalloproteinase-9 and interleukin-1β in cerebrospinal fluid of children with bacterial meningitis or viral encephalitis / 中华实用儿科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the changes and clinical significance of Caveolin-1,matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in cerebrospinal fluid of children with bacterial meningitis or viral encephalitis.Methods Thirty-six cases of children with bacterial meningitis,42 cases of children with viral encephalitis,and 20 cases of children with non-nervous system infection were selected from September 2016 to June 2018 at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University.The levels of Caveolin-1,MMP-9 and IL-1β in cerebrospinal fluid were detected by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results Cerebrospinal fluid Caveolin-1,MMP-9,IL-1β levels in the acute phase of bacterial meningitis were(49.06 ± 8.96) ng/L,(134.79 18.88)μg/L,(100.02 ± 14.67) μg/L,respectively,and (29.13 ± 7.25) ng/L,(18.69 ± 7.23) μg/L,(47.57 ± 8.95)pg/L in recovery phase,which were higher than those of the controls [(11.18 ± 2.24) ng/L,(11.53 ± 3.54) μg/L,(39.75 ± 7.08) μg/L)],and the differences were significant (all P ＜ 0.05).Cerebrospinal fluid Caveolin-1,MMP-9,IL-1β levels in the acute phase of viral encephalitis were (42.71 ± 10.48) ng/L,(62.78 ± 17.39) μg/L,(57.97 ± 11.28) μg/L,respectively,and (29.13 ± 7.25) ng/L,(18.69 ± 7.23) μg/L,(47.57 ± 8.95) μg/L in recovery phase,which were higher than those of controls,and the differences were significant (all P ＜ 0.05).The levels of Caveolin-1,MMP-9 and IL-1β in cerebrospinal fluid of bacterial meningitis group and viral encephalitis group were significantly higher than those of convalescent group (all P ＜ 0.05).The levels of Caveolin-1,MMP-9,IL-1β in cerebrospinal fluid of bacterial meningitis group were significantly higher than those in viral encephalitis group (all P ＜ 0.05) in the acute phase,and no significant difference was found in the recovery phase(all P ＞ 0.05).Cerebrospinal fluid Caveolin-1,MMP-9,IL-1β showed no significant difference among children with different severity of intracranial infection.Correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between Caveolin-1,MMP-9 and IL-1 β levels in cerebrospinal fluid of acute in bacterial meningitis group and viral encephalitis group (Caveolin-1 and MMP-9R2 =0.239,P ＜ 0.05;MMP-9 and IL-1βR2 =0.766,P ＜0.01;Caveolin-1 and IL-1βR2 =0.245,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Caveolin-1,MMP-9 and IL-1 β involved in the pathogenesis of intracranial infection in children,and the effects of different pathogens on intracranial infection were different.
