摘要:

背景:Toll样受体及其信号通路在自身免疫性疾病、超敏反应、炎症反应、细胞凋亡及移植排斥反应中发挥重要的作用,其在过敏性紫癜患儿免疫发病机制中的地位尚未完全阐明。

目的:探讨过敏性紫癜患儿外周血单核细胞TLR2的表达及其与免疫应答的相关性。
方法:64例过敏性紫癜患儿分为2组,即过敏性紫癜无肾损害组(36例)、过敏性紫癜肾损害组(28例),选择同期入院的30例健康体检儿童设置为对照组,采用流式细胞术检测外周血单核细胞TLR2表达,荧光定量PCR技术检测外周血单核细胞TLR2 mRNA相对表达量, ELISA检测血浆干扰素γ、白细胞介素4水平, ELISA法测定Treg细胞分泌的转化生长因子β、白细胞介素10水平。
结果与结论:过敏性紫癜组干扰素γ、干扰素γ/白细胞介素4水平均显著低于对照组(P < 0.05),白细胞介素4水平显著高于对照组(P < 0.05);过敏性紫癜组TLR2 mRNA和蛋白表达显著高于对照组(P < 0.05);过敏性紫癜肾损害组TLR2 mRNA和蛋白表达显著高于过敏性紫癜无肾损害组(P < 0.05);过敏性紫癜组患者白细胞介素10和转化生长因子β表达显著高于对照组(P < 0.05)。结果表明过敏性紫癜患儿外周单核细胞TLR2 mRNA及蛋白表达增高,且患儿存在免疫表达失衡现象,TLR2参与过敏性紫癜免疫发病机制,转化生长因子β表达量能够评估Treg的免疫应答,可作为过敏性紫癜患儿诊断、治疗及预后参考依据。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Toll-like receptor (TLR) and its signaling pathway play an important role in autoimmune diseases, hypersensitivity, inflammation, apoptosis and transplant rejection; however, its effects on immune pathogenesis of Henoeh-Schonlein purpura in children have not been fully elucidated.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the TLR2 expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in children with Henoeh-Schonlein purpura and its correlation with immune response.
METHODS: Sixty-four children with Henoeh-Schonlein purpura were divided into two groups: non-renal damage group (n=36) and renal damage group (n=28). Meanwhile, another 30 healthy children subjected to health examination acted as control group. Flow cytometry and florescent quantitative PCR were employed to detect TLR2 protein and mRNA expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, respectively. ELISA was used to detect plasma interferon-γ and interleukin-4 levels and transforming growth factor β and interleukin-10 levels secreted from Treg cells.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Levels of interferon-γ and interferon-γ/interleukin-4 in the children with Henoeh-Schonlein purpura were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05), while the level of interleukin-4 was higher than the control group (P < 0.05). The expression of TLR2 protein and mRNA was significantly higher in the Henoeh-Schonlein purpura children than the healthy children (P < 0.05) and significantly higher in the renal damage group than the non-renal damage group (P < 0.05). Compared with the control group, the levels of interleukin-10 and transforming growth factor β were significantly higher in the children with Henoeh- Schonlein purpura (P < 0.05). These findings indicate that Henoeh-Schonlein purpura children have increased levels of TLR2 protein and mRNA in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and exhibit immune imbalance. TLR2 is involved in the pathogenesis of Henoeh-Schonlein purpura, and transforming growth factor β can be used to evaluate Treg immune response and provide reference for diagnosis, treatment of prognosis of Henoeh-Schonlein purpura children.
