摘要
目的:观察Graves病病人外周血T细胞亚群、Th1/Th2细胞极化的变化,探讨细胞免疫在Graves病发病中的作用。方法:①采用流式细胞仪检测20例未经治疗的Graves病病人的T细胞亚群和CD8-/IFN-γ+细胞和CD8-/IL-4+T细胞的百分含量;②化学发光法检测FT3、FT4、s-TSH,放射免疫法检测TRAb、TGAb、TMAb;③观察Graves病病人经他巴唑(30mg/d)治疗1个月后T细胞亚群和CD8-/IL-4+T细胞和CD8-/IFN-γ+T细胞的百分含量的变化情况。结果:①Graves病病人较正常对照人群的CD4+T细胞与CD4+T细胞/CD8+T细胞比值增高;CD8-/IL-4+T(Th2)细胞的百分含量增高;CD8-/IFN-γ+T细胞/CD8-/IL-4+T细胞比值(Th1/Th2)下降(均P<0.05);②Graves病病人的FT3、FT4较正常对照组明显增高(均P<0.01),但s-TSH明显降低(P<0.01),TRAb、TGAb、TMAb明显增高(均P<0.05);③他巴唑治疗1个月后,T细胞亚群、CD8-/IL-4+T细胞和CD8-/IFN-γ+T细胞百分含量,以及CD8-/IFN-γ+T细胞/CD8-/IL-4+T细胞比值与治疗前相比均无显著差异。结论:在Graves病人外周血中Th2细胞亚群比例占明显优势,Th1/Th2细胞极化向Th2偏移,甲状腺特异的自身抗体增高,证明Graves病的发病与Th2型细胞介导的体液免疫直接相关。
Objective:To clarify the T cell subset difference and characteristic antibodies in patients with untreated Graves disease compared with healthy controls. Methods: (1)T cell subset, IFN-γ T lymphocyte and the IL-4 lymphocyte in peripheral blood were assayed by flow cytometry; (2)FT3, FT4 and s-TSH were tested by the chemiluminescence. TRAb, TGAb and TMAb were examined by the radioactive immunization; (3) T cell subgroup and CD8^-/IL-4^+ T cell, CD8^-/IFN-γ^+T cell were also examined by flow cytometry after Graves patients were took Tapazol (30mg/day) one month. Results:(1)CD4^+ T cells in Graves disease patients were higher than those in healthy control,but CD8^+ T cells were lower ( P 〈0.05). Calculated ratio of FN-γ^+/ IL-4^+ T cellcytokines in Graves disease patients was lower than that in healthy controls. (2) Compared with healthy group, FT3,FT4 and TRAb,TGAb,TMAb were higher( P〈0.01, P 〈0.05), s-TSH was lower than controls ( P 〈0.01). (3)Graves disease patients treated by Tapazol one month later, T Lymphocyte subpopulation and Th1/Th2 cytokineare no significantly changed. Conclusion: Th2 cytokine response dysfunction enhancement in Graves disease patient's peripheral blood compare with health adults. Thyroid gland special antibodies are higher. These findings further clarify that Th2 T cells and humoral immunity play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Graves disease.
