This study aimed to investigate the early changes of lymphocyte subpopulations in patients with occupational 2,4-DNP poisoning. Totally 9 patients with acute occupational 2,4-DNP poisoning and 30 healthy volunteers as control were enrolled. The patients received immediately comprehensive supportive treatments, including large-dose glucocorticoid and repeated hemoperfusion (HP). The ratio of CD4+/CD8+ T cells were significantly higher in patients upon admission compared to healthy controls (P 〈 0.01); however, counts of total lymphocytes, CD3+, CD3+CD4+, CD3+CD8+, B (CD19+), and natural killer (NK) cells (CD16+CD56+) were significantly reduced (all P 〈 0.001). The NK cell count was negatively correlated with initial plasma 2,4-DNP concentration (r = -0.750, P = 0.026). Thus, acute occupational 2,4-DNP poisoning was accompanied by immediate complex immune cell reactions, especially NK cells might play important role in severe 2,4-DNP poisoning.展开更多

This disease can not be clearly identified through laboratory tests at present, thus application of high-throughput technique in studying the expression profiles of PD helps to find the genetic markers for its early diagnosis. Studies on expression profiles of neurodegenerative diseases have revealed the novel genes and pathways involved in the progress of illness. In this study, the expression profiles of PD in blood were compared, showing that 181 differentially expressed genes (DEG) exhibit a similar expression trend both in patients and in normal controls.展开更多
