摘要
目的 检测和研究丙型肝炎病毒 (hepatitisCvirus,HCV)核心蛋白在患者外周血单个核细胞 (peripheralbloodmononuclearcells ,PBMC)内核表达的意义 ,并探讨其与临床的关系。方法 对 6 6例慢性丙型肝炎患者PBMC标本进行免疫组化检测 ,并将HCV蛋白抗原定位分布情况与患者临床状况进行比较分析 ,对其中 2 7例患者PBMC进行HCVRNA和HCVAg的平行检测和分析。结果 免疫组化结果显示 ,慢性丙型肝炎患者PBMCHCVAg(core +NS3)阳性检出率为 77 2 7% (5 1 6 6 )。结果还证实 ,HCV核心蛋白均定位于胞核内 ,且呈强表达 ;NS3蛋白主要定位于胞质内 ,呈弱表达。当进行HCVAg在PBMC内定位情况与患者临床状况比较分析时显示 ,病情较重患者PBMC内核心蛋白表达阳性率 (35 2 9% )明显高于病情较轻者 (5 88% ) (P <0 0 0 1)。结论 HCV核心蛋白在PBMC内核表达与患者临床状况相关 ,提示其可能是丙型肝炎慢性化的一个指标 。
Objective To study the significance of the expression of HCV core protein in PBMC of patients with chronic hepatitis C and to evaluate the relationship between HCV core protein expression and clinical states.Methods Identification of HCV protein antigen(Ag) in PBMC of 66 hepatitis C patients by immunohistochemical method and clinical status of the patients with HCV protein positive expression were investigated.In 27 out off 66 patients the HCV RNA and HCV Ag in PBMC were detected with RT-PCR and immunohistochemical method.Results The HCV Ag(core+NS3) was identified in PBMC in 51 out of 66 patients (77.27%).It was also demonstrated that HCV core protein in nucleus showed strong expression and NS3 protein in cytoplasm showed weak expression.The expression of core protein in nucleus of PBMC were 35.29% in advanced chronic hepatitis patients,which was significantly higher than that from moderate cases(5.88%).Conclusion This study suggested that the expression of PMBC-HCV core protein may be related to the clinical state of the patients.The nuclear expression of HCV core protein in PBMC of patients with hepatitis C may be related to the persistence and activity of the chronic hepatitis C virus and play an important role in the pathogenesis of cirrhrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.
