摘要
目的探讨狼疮肾炎(LN)外周血OX40,OX40L mRNA表达水平及抗C1q抗体水平。方法采集80例系统性红斑狼疮患者及40例正常对照者外周血,采用ELISA法检测抗C1q抗体,采用荧光定量逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)测定外周血单个核细胞(PBMC)中OX40,OX40L mRNA表达水平。结果LN患者抗C1q抗体水平为(9.11±2.46)ng/mL,显著高于非LN患者的(3.12±0.97)ng/mL及正常对照者的(1.12±0.33)ng/mL,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。LN患者PBMCs OX40,OX40L mRNA水平分别为(8±4)×106拷贝/μL和(4±3)×103拷贝/μL,显著高于非LN患者[(4±3)×103及(2±2)×103]和正常对照者[(4±2)×103及(2±1)×103],差异有统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论外周血OX40,OX40L mRNA表达及抗C1q抗体与LN活动度相关,其在LN的发生、发展中可能起一定作用。
Objective To investigate Clq antibody level and the expression of costimulatory molecules OX40 and OX40L messenger RNA (mRNA) in peripheral blood of patients with lupus nephritis(LN). Methods Pe- ripheral blood was collected from 80 patients with SLE and 40 normal human controls. The OX40 and OX40L mRNA were determined in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) by fluorescence quantita- tive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (FQ-RT-PCR). The Clq antibody was detected by ELISA. Results The levels of OX40 / OX40L mRNA and Clq antibody were significantly increased in pa- tients with LN [ (8±4) ×106copy/p.L, (4 ±3) ×103 copy/μL, (9. 11 ±2.46)ng/mL] than those of SLE patients without LN [ (4 ±3) ×103, (2 ±2) ×103, (3. 12 ±0. 97)ng/mL] and normal controls[ (4 ± 2) ×103, (2± 1 )×103 , ( 1. 12 ± 0.33 ) ng/mL] ( P 〈 0.05 ). Conclusion Upregulation of costimulatory molecules OX40, OX40L mRNA and Clq antibody in peripheral blood may play a certain role in genesis and progression of LN.
