By using CD80 monoclonal antibody (McAb) to inhibit interaction among cells which is mediated by costimulatory factors, we observed the effect of CD80 McAb on the growth and maturation of megakaryocytic progenitors of patients with CITP in vitro . The results showed the expression of CD80 on platelets and megakaryocytes in CITP group was significantly higher than that in controls ( P <0.01). There was a significantly positive correlation between the expression of CD80 on platelets and serum PAIgG in CITP (r=0.86, P <0.05). The mean of various clone numbers (CFU MK, BFU MK and mCFU MK) in CITP were all lower than those in controls ( P <0.05). In megakaryocytes co cultured with CD80 McAb, there was an increasing tendency of the number of CFU MK and big CFU MK (the number of megakaryocyte with GPⅢ a positive was more than 20) and mediate CFU MK (the number of megakaryocyte with GPⅢ a positive was 11-20). When the concentration of CD80 McAb was 10 μg/L, there was a significant difference in the number of megakaryocytic colony formation (CFU MK, BFU MK and mCFU MK) between the group with CD80 McAb and that without it ( P <0.05).These showed the abnormality of costimulatory factors had important effect in the pathogenesis of CITP.展开更多
