ABSTRACT
Objective To study the changes of T lymphocyte subtype levels and serum levels of leukotriene B4 ( LTB4 )in children with acute leukemia (AL). Methods The activity of T lymphocyte subsets:CD3+ T cells,CD4+ T cells,CD8 + T cell levels and NK cell were detected in 40 cases of AL and 40 control by Flow Cytometry(FCM). The serum level of LTB4 was measured by ELISA in all subjects. ResultsCompared with normal control , the percentages of CD3 + T cells ( [ 49.51 ± 6.53 ] % vs [ 67.63 ± 5.23 ] % ), CD4 + T cells ([22.15±4.87]% vs [34.43 ±5.07]%),CD8+ T cell ([23.41 ±3.96]% vs [28. 17 ±4.61]%),NK cell ( [5.41 ± 4.25 ] % vs [ 13.10 ± 4.91 ] % ) were significantly lower in children AL patients, ( Ps <0.01 ). However,the serum levels of LTB4 increased significantly in AL patients compared with normal control ( [ 25.23 ± 6.24 ] ng/L vs [ 8.28 ± 2.53 ] ng/L, P < 0.01 ). ConclusionT lymphocyte subtype and serum level of LTB4 showed significant changes in children AL patients compared with normal control, which revealed an important theoretical basis to AL pathogenesis.
ABSTRACT
IFA was used to observe the distribution and the alteration of T-lymphocyte subtypes in the peripheral blood of 20 patiens with condyloma acuminata for 31 times. The murine antibody was the first antient and the antient of rabbit against IGFITC the second. The results showed that the percentage of CD_3 cell in the patients decreased significantly(P
