The mean levels of soluble delta-like ligand 1 in both cerebrospinal fluid and serum from patients with tuberculous meningitis were significantly higher compared with those from patients with viral meningitis or purulent meningitis or from subjects without central nervous system disease. Meanwhile, the level of soluble delta-like ligand 1 gradually decreased as tuberculous meningitis patients recovered. If patients deteriorated after treatment, the level of soluble delta-like ligand 1 in cerebrospinal fluid gradually increased. There was no correlation between the level of soluble delta-like ligand 1 and the protein level/cell number in cerebrospinal fluid. Our findings indicate that the levels of soluble delta-like ligand 1 in cerebrospinal fluid and serum are reliable markers for the diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis and for monitoring treatment progress. At the same time, this index is not influenced by protein levels or cell numbers in cerebrospinal fluid.展开更多
背景与目的:蛋白酪氨酸磷酸酶受体D(protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type delta,PTPRD)和程序性死亡[蛋白]配体-1(programmed death ligand-1,PD-L1)在肝癌组织的异常表达与肿瘤侵袭和转移有关。信号转导与转录激活因子3(signal...背景与目的:蛋白酪氨酸磷酸酶受体D(protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type delta,PTPRD)和程序性死亡[蛋白]配体-1(programmed death ligand-1,PD-L1)在肝癌组织的异常表达与肿瘤侵袭和转移有关。信号转导与转录激活因子3(signal transducer and activator of transcription-3,STAT3)通路在癌症中起着关键作用,影响免疫系统的许多方面,STAT3异常激活与PTPRD和PD-L1的异常表达密切相关,然而PTPRD和PD-L1的相关性目前鲜见文献报道。探讨PTPRD和PD-L1在肝癌组织中的表达相关性,进一步在肝癌细胞中观察PTPRD是否可调控PD-L1。方法:采用免疫组织化学法分析2018年10月-2019年1月广西医科大学附属肿瘤医院肝二病区收治的原发性肝癌并经手术治疗的16例肝癌患者的肿瘤标本及其癌旁标本中PTPRD和PD-L的蛋白水平,采用实时荧光定量聚合酶链反应(real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction,RTFQ-PCR)检测同一标本PTPRD和PD-L1 mRNA的表达,分析两者的相关性。采用蛋白质印迹法(Western blot)检测过表达或沉默PTPRD对PD-L1、STAT3和p-STAT3蛋白水平的影响。采用RTFQ-PCR检测PTPRD过表达对PD-L1转录水平的影响。结果:肝癌组织中PTPRD的表达显著低于癌旁组织(P<0.05),PD-L1表达显著高于癌旁组织(P<0.05),两者表达呈负相关性(r2=0.275 8,P=0.036 7);PTPRD过表达时,PD-L1、STAT3和p-STAT3蛋白的表达水平下降(P<0.05),PTPRD沉默时,PD-L1的表达增高。结论:PTPRD和PD-L1表达水平在肝癌中呈负相关,PTPRD可能通过STAT3信号通路调节PD-L1的表达。PTPRD有望成为肝癌免疫治疗新靶点。展开更多
