创伤性骨折血清ALP、OPG表达与Th1/Th2平衡的相关性分析

摘要 目的：探讨创伤性骨折血清碱性磷酸酶（ALP）、骨保护素（OPG）表达与辅助性T细胞1（Th1）/辅助性T细胞2（Th2）平衡的相关性。方法：选取我院2019年2月到2022年12月收治的80例创伤性骨折患者作为研究对象,将其分为观察组,另选取同期来我院体检的80名健康志愿者作为对照组。抽取观察组患者入院后第二天清晨空腹静脉血和对照组清晨空腹静脉血,检测ALP、OPG、Th1、Th2表达水平,并分析血清ALP、OPG表达与Th1/Th2平衡的相关性。术后12个月后对观察组80例患者进行随访,依照患者骨折愈合程度将其分为骨折愈合组（n=54）和延迟愈合组（n=26）,对比两组患者临床一般情况与ALP、OPG、Th1/Th2表达水平,并分析创伤性骨折患者骨折愈合情况影响的多因素。结果：观察组与对照组ALP、OPG表达与辅助性T细胞水平对比差异显著,观察组ALP、OPG、Th2水平明显高于对照组,Th1、Th1/Th2水平明显低于对照组（P＜0.05）;Spearman相关分析结果表明：血清ALP、OPG与Th1/Th2平衡呈负相关（P<0.05）;骨折愈合组和延迟愈合组患者性别、年龄、致伤原因、Th2对比无明显差异（P＞0.05）,两组患者BMI、合并感染ALP、OPG、Th1、Th1/Th2水平对比差异显著（P＜0.05）;对上述单因素分析具有统计学差异指标进行赋值,多因素分析结果表明：ALP、OPG、Th2、Th1/Th2为影响创伤性骨折患者骨折愈合情况的独立影响因素（P＜0.05）。结论：创伤性骨折的发生会导致ALP、OPG水平升高,Th1/Th2平衡改变,患者血清ALP、OPG水平与Th1/Th2平衡关系具有明显相关性。另外,ALP、OPG、Th1、Th1/Th2水平变化可影响创伤性骨折患者术后骨折愈合水平。因此,临床上对于ALP、OPG水平升高,且Th1/Th2失衡患者需警惕骨折愈合不良的发生。     

In vitro Th1 cytokine-independent Th2 suppressive effects of bifidobacteria

A comparison between 17 strains of lactic acid bacteria and 15 strains of bifidobacteria indicated that bifidobacteria induced significantly lower levels of interleukin-12 (IL-12) in murine splenic cells. The present study aims to evaluate the effect and mechanism of Bifidobacterium longum BB536, a probiotic strain, in suppressing antigen-induced Th2 immune response in vitro. BB536 suppressed immunoglobulin (Ig) E and IL-4 production by ovalbumin-sensitized splenic cells, but induction of Th1-inducing cytokine production, such as IL-12 and gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) tended to be lower compared with lactic acid bacteria. Neutralization with antibodies to IL-12, IFN-gamma, IL-10 and transforming growth factor beta indicated negative involvement of Th1-inducing cytokines and regulatory cytokines in the suppression of Th2 immune response by BB536, especially when treated at higher doses of BB536 (>10 microg cells/ml). Furthermore, BB536 induced the maturation of immature bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BM-DCs), and suppressed antigen-induced IL-4 production mediated by BM-DCs. These results suggested that BB536 suppressed Th2 immune responses, partially independent of Th1-inducing cytokines and independent of regulatory cytokines, mediated by antigen-presenting cells such as dendritic cells.

The attenuation of Th1 and Th17 responses via autophagy protects against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus-induced sepsis

Whether autophagy affects methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-induced sepsis and the associated mechanisms are largely unknown. This study investigated the role of autophagy in MRSA-induced sepsis. The levels of microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 (LC3)-II/I, Beclin-1 and p62 after USA300 infection were examined by Western blotting and immunohistochemical staining. Bacterial burden analysis, hematoxylin-eosin staining, and Kaplan–Meier analysis were performed to evaluate the effect of autophagy on MRSA-induced sepsis. IFN-γ and IL-17 were analyzed by ELISA, and CD4⁺ T cell differentiation was assessed by flow cytometry. Our results showed that LC3-II/I and Beclin-1 were increased, while p62 was decreased after infection. Survival rates were decreased in the LC3B^−/− and Beclin-1^+/− groups, accompanied by worsened organ injuries and increased IFN-γ and IL-17 levels, whereas rapamycin alleviated organ damage, decreased IFN-γ and IL-17 levels, and improved the survival rate. However, there was no significant difference in bacterial burden. Flow cytometric analysis showed that rapamycin treatment decreased the frequencies of Th1 and Th17 cells, whereas these cells were upregulated in the LC3B^−/− and Beclin-1^+/− groups. Therefore, autophagy plays a protective role in MRSA-induced sepsis, which may be partly associated with the alleviation of organ injuries via the downregulation of Th1 and Th17 responses. These results provide a nonantibiotic treatment strategy for sepsis.     

轮状病毒致乳鼠肠道外感染Th1/Th2细胞因子变化的研究

目的通过复制轮状病毒（RV）肠道外感染乳鼠的动物模型,检测接种后乳鼠体内Th1/Th2平衡改变,对RV肠道外感染后机体免疫状态进行初步研究。方法48只乳鼠随机均分为3组：肠道外组、肠道内组和正常对照组。肠道外组通过腹腔注射猴RVSA11株,肠道内组灌胃等量RV悬液,对照组无特殊处理。分别在接种后第4天、第8天处死乳鼠,收集标本,观察心、肝、肾、肺等脏器病理变化,用ELISA法检测血清中IL-10和IFN-γ的表达。结果光镜下肠道外组乳鼠肾、肝、肺和脾脏出现病理改变。感染后第4天,肠道内、外组乳鼠血清IFN-γ水平均高于正常组,到第8天明显下降,基本达到基线水平;IL-10在肠道外组第4天增高,到第8天小幅下降,但仍然高于正常组;而肠道内组IL-10无明显改变。结论RV肠道外感染早期呈现Th1-Th2混合反应,而后期则以IL-10的表达为主,T细胞向Th2型免疫应答方向偏离,Th1/Th2细胞因子失衡机制可能是RV肠道外感染的重要因素。     

Deviated balance between Th1 and Th17 cells exacerbates acute graft-versus-host disease in mice

BackgroundTh1/Th17 imbalance had been indicated to mediate several kinds of inflammatory diseases. We deduce that Th1/Th17 imbalance might also contribute to the pathogenesis of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). This study is to investigate the relation between Th1/Th17 imbalance and acute GVHD.MethodsWe applied a murine GVHD model of C57BL/6 (H-2^b) donor to BALB/c (H-2^d) recipient by treating the recipients with low dose of halofuginone (HF), which is competent in selectively inhibiting Th17 differentiation and facilitating Th1 differentiation. Recipient mice were monitored for survival rate, body weight change, clinical symptoms and pathological evidence of acute GVHD. We also measured the proportions of Th1 and Th17 cells in circulation and expression levels of IFN-γ and IL-17A in tissues involved in GVHD.ResultsFirstly, we confirm the existence of Th1/Th17 imbalance in acute GVHD and Th1/Th17 imbalance positively correlates with severity of acute GVHD. Secondly, low dose of HF augments Th1/Th17 imbalance by driving the Th1/Th17 balance to a Th1-dominant reaction. Finally, augmented Th1/Th17 imbalance leads to aggravated systemic GVHD. An increased Th1-type reaction results in aggravated hepatic and intestinal GVHD, and inhibiting Th17 differentiation is sufficient to alleviate pulmonic impairment.ConclusionOur study is indicative for a critical role of Th1/Th17 imbalance in the pathogenesis of murine GVHD.

T-helper (Th)1/Th2 imbalance in the peripheral blood of dogs with malignant tumor

T helper type 1 cell (Th1)/Th2 imbalance has been observed in a variety of pathological conditions, including malignant diseases. We evaluated the Th1/Th2 in peripheral blood Th cells by means of intracytoplasmic cytokine analysis in 11 dogs with advanced malignant tumor; four of them showed metastatic tumor. The percentage of Th1 was significantly lower and the percentage of Th2 was significantly higher in diseased dogs compared to healthy dogs. The percentage of Th1 in three patients with metastatic tumor was significantly lower than that in the patients with non-metastatic tumor. We conclude that the Th1/Th2 balance was polarized to Th2 in dogs with cancer.
