摘要: 目的: 检测慢性丙型肝炎(CHC)患者血清白细胞介素21(IL-21)水平及肝功能、HCV-RNA,探讨血清IL-21水平变化与肝功能各项参数及HCV-RNA的关系,研究IL-21在慢性丙型肝炎发病中的作用。方法: 双抗体夹心(ELISA)法检测27例慢性丙型肝炎患者和10例正常对照者血清中IL-21的水平。同时检测患者HCV-RNA、肝功能等指标,并与患者的其他临床数据进行统计分析。结果: 慢性丙型肝炎患者血清IL-21水平显著高于正常对照组(P<0.01);ALT升高的慢性丙型肝炎患者血清IL-21显著高于ALT正常的慢性丙型肝炎患者,且其血清IL-21水平与ALT、AST显著正相关(分别为r=0.647, P<0.01;r=0.591, P<0.01);慢性丙型肝炎患者血清IL-21水平与HCV-RNA水平无显著相关性。结论: IL-21与慢性丙型肝炎肝脏炎症密切相关,是反应慢性丙型肝炎炎症程度的灵敏指标。

Abstract: AIM: To determine serum interleukin-21 (IL-21) level and evaluate the roles of IL-21 in chronic hepatitis C (CHC). METHODS: Serum IL-21 levels of 27 CHC patients and 10 control subjects were determined by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the relationship between serum IL-21 levels and HCV-RNA, the live biochemical parameters were studied. RESULTS: Serum IL-21 levels in CHC patients were significantly higher than those in control subjects (P<0.01). Especially, CHC patients with elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) have higher IL-21 than patients with normal ALT. There were highly significant positive associations between serum IL-21 and ALT (r=0.647, P<0.01) as well as aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (r=0.591, P<0.01). But no association was observed between IL-21 and HCV-RNA. CONCLUSION: IL-21 is a cytokine involved in HCV-associated liver pathological damage and may be an available marker to evaluate hepatic inflammation for CHC.
