METHODS:Flow cytometry was used to detect the population of CD8+CD28 -Ts cells present in peripheral blood in A-A LDLT recipients(n=31),patients with end- stage liver disease(n=24)and healthy controls(n=19). Meanwhile,we tested the graft function and trough levels of immunosuppression in recipients.The clinical and follow- up data of 31 transplant recipients were analyzed. RESULTS:Compared with diseased controls(P=0.007) and healthy individuals(P=0.000),a notable expansion of CD8 + CD28 - Ts cells was found in recipients of A-A LDLT.This was associated with graft function,levels of immunosuppression and rejection episodes. CONCLUSIONS:To monitor the CD8 + CD28 - Ts cells levels is important to evaluate the immune state of recipients. Meanwhile,it is also important to promote expansion of CD8+CD28 -Ts cells in recipients of A-A LDLT,not only to sustain good graft function and decrease the dosage of immunosuppressants,but also to reduce the occurrence of rejection.展开更多

对31例风湿性心脏病进行细胞免疫功能试验,结果表明该病存在自身免疫功能紊乱,主要表现为淋巴细胞绝对值增高,T 抑制淋巴细胞数量减少(p<0.01)。淋巴细胞转化试验显示 T 细胞转化率低.风湿性心脏病免疫自稳平衡受到破坏,其免疫功能...对31例风湿性心脏病进行细胞免疫功能试验,结果表明该病存在自身免疫功能紊乱,主要表现为淋巴细胞绝对值增高,T 抑制淋巴细胞数量减少(p<0.01)。淋巴细胞转化试验显示 T 细胞转化率低.风湿性心脏病免疫自稳平衡受到破坏,其免疫功能亢进可能与发病有关。展开更多
本实验在体外测定了自身免疫性甲状腺疾病(autoimmune thyroid disease,AITD)患者外周血淋巴细胞培养的上清IgG含量,并根据Concanaralin(ConA)可诱导抑制性T细胞(suppressor T cell,Ts)的原理,检测了ConA诱导Ts对淋巴细胞分泌IgG的抑制...本实验在体外测定了自身免疫性甲状腺疾病(autoimmune thyroid disease,AITD)患者外周血淋巴细胞培养的上清IgG含量,并根据Concanaralin(ConA)可诱导抑制性T细胞(suppressor T cell,Ts)的原理,检测了ConA诱导Ts对淋巴细胞分泌IgG的抑制率(suppressiverate,SR)。结果表明AITD患者淋巴细胞分泌IgG与正常人无明显差别(P>0.05),而其SR较正常对照显著低下(P<0.05),且SR与Graves病患者血T_3值呈负相关。实验进一步证明甲状腺素在体外并不影响ConA诱导Ts的抑制作用。本研究结果支持本病具有Ts功能的缺陷,且提示这种异常并不是继发于本病,而是本病原发性的免疫表现。展开更多
