摘要
目的检测儿童癫痫患者外周T淋巴细胞活化状态以及细胞因子水平变化。方法选取20名儿童癫痫患者和19名健康对照儿童,采集外周血,分离外周血单个核细胞(PBMC),用细胞膜表面标记抗体流式细胞术检测T淋巴细胞表面共刺激分子CD69、CD25和细胞毒性T淋巴细胞相关蛋白4(CTLA4)的表达,用细胞内因子染色结合流式细胞术检测T细胞细胞因子γ干扰素(IFN-γ)、白细胞介素6(IL-6)、肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)和IL-17A的表达,利用细胞内因子染色结合流式细胞术检测调节性T淋巴细胞(Treg)表达IL-10的情况。结果与对照组相比,儿童癫痫患者外周血中T淋巴细胞表面高表达共刺激分子CD69、CD25和CTLA4,活化的CD4+T细胞高表达IFN-γ、TNF-α、IL-6和IL-17 A。在儿童癫痫患者高表达IL-10的Treg数目增加。结论儿童癫痫患者外周T淋巴细胞活化并产生细胞因子。
Objective To study the state of peripheral T lymphocytes and cytokine levels in children with epilepsy. Methods Twenty children with epilepsy and 20 healthy age-matched children were recruited and their peripheral blood was collected. The activation of T lymphocytes was evaluated by detecting the expressions of CD25, CD69 and cytotoxic T lymphocyte-assicated antigen 4 (CTLA4). The function of T lymphocytes was evaluated by detecting the expressions of interferonγ (IFN-γ), tumor necrosis factor a (TNF-α), IL-17A and IL-6. The activation of regulatory T cells (Tregs) was evaluated by detecting the expression of IL-10. Results Children with epilepsy had higher expressions of CD25, CD69 and CTLA-4 in T lymphocytes than the controls did. The expressions of IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-17A and IL-6 in T lymphocytes of children with epilepsy were higher than those of the controls. Frequency of Tregs producing IL-10 was higher in children with epilepsy as compared with the controls. Conclusion Peripheral T lymphocytes of children with epilepsy are activated and produce cytokines.
