摘要
目的了解细胞因子在急性甲型肝炎患儿中的临床意义。方法观察2014年9月-2015年1月在新疆和田地区传染病专科医院住院的甲型肝炎患儿,以年龄和性别匹配的健康儿童作为对照组,检测其血清细胞因子水平,包括IL-6、IL-8、IL-10、IL-1β、TNFα,并对肝功能、凝血功能、是否合并腹水等临床指标进行监测,比较血清细胞因子与临床特征之间的关系。正态分布的计量资料2组间比较用两独立样本t检验;非正态分布的计量资料2组间比较采用Mann-Whitney U检验。计数资料2组间比较采用χ^2检验。相关性比较采用Spearman秩相关分析。结果共纳入急性甲型肝炎患儿70例,健康对照组30例,血清检测发现急性甲型肝炎组患儿血清IL-10水平为19.60(15.50~32.08) pg/ml,明显高于正常对照组的5.00 (5.00~10.30) pg/ml(Z=-6.79,P<0.01)。急性甲型肝炎患儿血清IL-10水平与ALT(r=0.24,P=0.04)、TBil(r=0.32,P<0.01)、PT(r=0.29,P=0.01)呈正相关。此外,血清IL-10水平在黄疸型肝炎组患儿为23.20(18.04~45.00) pg/ml,而非黄疸型肝炎组患儿为18.40(14.84~24.80) pg/ml,两者之间差异具有统计学意义(Z=-2.30,P=0.02)。血清IL-10水平在合并腹水组明显高于无腹水组[42.60(19.15~73.35) pg/ml vs 19.02(15.13~27.33) pg/ml,Z=-2.42,P=0.02)。血清IL-6(Z=-0.95,P=0.34)、IL-8(Z=-0.97,P=0.33)、IL-1β(Z=-1.33,P=0.18)、TNFα(Z=-0.34,P=0.73)在急性甲型肝炎组和健康对照组间差异均无统计学意义,且在是否黄疸型肝炎、是否合并腹水组间比较,差异亦无统计学意义(P值均>0.05)。结论血清IL-10在急性甲型肝炎患儿中明显升高,且在病情偏重的黄疸型肝炎组和合并腹水组中明显升高,提示细胞因子IL-10在急性HAV感染所致的免疫损伤中发挥主要作用。
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of cytokines in children with acute hepatitis A.Methods The children with acute hepatitis A who were hospitalized in the Specialized Hospital of Infectious Diseases in Hotan,Xinjiang,from September 2014 to January 2015 were enrolled as acute hepatitis A group,and healthy children matched for age and sex were enrolled as control group.The serum levels of related inflammatory cytokines were measured,including interleukin-6( IL-6),interleukin-8( IL-8),interleukin-10( IL-10),interleukin-1β( IL-1β),and tumor necrosis factor-α( TNFα).Clinical indices such as liver function,coagulation function,and presence or absence of ascites were monitored,and the correlation between the serum cytokines and clinical features was analyzed.The two-independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups,and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups.The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups.A Spearman correlation analysis was used to investigate correlation.Results A total of70 children with acute hepatitis A and 30 healthy children were enrolled.The serological test showed that the acute hepatitis A group had a significantly higher serum level of IL-10 than the control group [19.60( 15.50-32.08) pg/ml vs 5.00( 5.00-10.30) pg/ml,Z =-6.79,P<0.01].In the children with acute hepatitis A,the serum level of IL-10 was positively correlated with alanine aminotransferase( r = 0.24,P = 0.04),total bilirubin( r = 0.32,P<0.01),and prothrombin time( r = 0.29,P = 0.01).In addition,the serum level of IL-10 was 23.20( 18.04-45.00) pg/ml in children with jaundice hepatitis and 18.40( 14.84-24.80) pg/ml in those with non-jaundice hepatitis,and there was no significant difference between the two groups of children( Z =-2.30,P = 0.02).The children with ascites had a significantly higher serum level of IL-10 than those without ascites [42.60( 19.15-73.35) pg/ml vs 19.02( 15.13-27.33)pg/ml,Z =-2.42,P = 0.02].There were no significant differences between the acute hepatitis A group and the control group in the ser-um levels of IL-6( Z =-0.95,P = 0.34),IL-8( Z =-0.97,P = 0.33),IL-1β( Z =-1.33,P = 0.18),and TNFα( Z =-0.34,P = 0.73),and there were also no significant differences in these cytokines between the children with jaundice hepatitis and those with non-jaundice hepatitis,as well as between the children with ascites and those without ascites( all P>0.05).Conclusion There is a significant increase in the serum level of IL-10 in children with acute hepatitis A,especially in those with jaundice hepatitis or ascites,suggesting that IL-10 plays an important role in immunologic injury induced by acute hepatitis A virus infection.
