摘要
目的研究白塞病(Behcet’s disease,BD)患者外周血CD4^+T细胞和CD8^+T细胞上ICOS(inducible costimulatory molecule,ICOS)与CD28共表达水平及与疾病的关系。方法采用流式细胞术检测BD患者(n=22),包括BD活动期(active BD,ABD)患者(n=14)和BD稳定期(stable BD,SBD)患者(n=8),以及健康体检者(n=22)外周血CD4^+T细胞及CD8^+T细胞上ICOS与CD28共表达水平。结果 ABD患者外周血CD28^+ICOS^+CD4^+T细胞的比例较正常对照明显上升[(34.72±12.87)%vs.(25.36±8.24)%,P<0.05],CD28^+ICOS^+CD8^+T细胞的比例与正常对照相比无明显改变[(9.32±4.57)%vs.(7.24±3.36)%,P>0.05];ABD患者外周血CD28^-ICOS^+CD4^+T细胞的比例较正常对照明显升高[(2.54±1.63)%vs.(0.76±0.25)%,P<0.05];ABD患者CD28^-ICOS^+CD8^+T细胞的比例较正常对照也明显升高[(8.79±3.41)%vs.(3.04±1.25)%,P<0.05]。结论 ICOS在BD患者外周血T细胞亚群中表达水平的增高在一定程度上独立于CD28分子,提示患者体内仅表达ICOS分子的细胞同样也可能在发病过程中发挥重要作用,为BD的治疗提供了相应的理论依据。
Objective To study the relationship between the co^-expression levels of inducible costimulatory molecule(ICOS)and CD28 on peripheral blood CD4~+and CD8~+T cells and Behcet's disease(BD).Methods Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression levels of ICOS and CD28 on peripheral blood CD4~+and CD8~+T cells of BD patients(n=22),including those with active BD(ABD,n=14)and stable BD(SBD,n=8),and of normal subjects(n=22).Results The proportion of CD28~+ICOS~+CD4~+T cells was significantly increased in ABD patients when compared with normal subjects[(34.72±12.87)% vs.(25.36±8.24)%,P〉0.05].No significant difference was found in the proportion of CD28~+ICOS~+CD8~+T cells[(9.32±4.57)% vs.(7.24±3.36)%,P〈0.05]between the two groups.The proportions of CD28^-ICOS~+CD4~+T cells and CD28^-ICOS~+CD8~+T cells were both obviously increased in ABD patients when compared with those in normal subjects[(2.54±1.63)% vs.(0.76±0.25)% for CD28^-ICOS~+CD4~+T cells,P〈0.05;(8.79±3.41)% vs.(3.04±1.25)% for CD28^-ICOS~+CD8~+T cells,P〈0.05].Conclusion The increased expression level of ICOS on peripheral blood CD4~+and CD8~+T cells is not closely associated with the expression of CD28 to some extent in BD patients,suggesting that cells expressing only ICOS play an important role in the development of BD.
