摘要:


文题释义:

半胱天冬酶1(Caspase-1) mRNA:Caspase-1属炎性介导因子,而Caspase-1 mRNA是Caspase-1的表达形式,主要在巨噬细胞和神经元以外的各种细胞类型和组织中表达。当宿主细胞被病原体感染时,可以通过识别特定的特异性蛋白,启动宿主细胞的凋亡,清除抗原,起到抗病毒的作用。
凋亡相关斑点样蛋白(apoptosis associated speck like protein containing a CARD,ASC) mRNA:是ASC编码表达水平的方式,主要在单核细胞和黏膜上皮细胞中表达。ASC是MASUMOTO等在1999年于日本衰老研究中心发现的一种蛋白,因在细胞凋亡时能在细胞质中聚集成中空的斑块而得名,其在炎症、免疫调节等方面广泛发挥作用。


背景:研究表明,核苷酸结合寡聚化结构域样受体蛋白3(nucleotide binding oligomerization domain like receptor protein 3,NLRP3)炎性小体、白细胞介素18和白细胞介素1β均可以通过诱发炎症级联反应释放炎症因子、影响代谢应激、损伤内皮细胞等参与糖尿病足溃疡的发生、发展,可以为早期感染提供参考。

目的:进一步探讨外周血单核细胞NLRP3炎性小体、白细胞介素18和白细胞介素1β水平对糖尿病足溃疡皮瓣修复术后早期感染的预测价值。
方法:选取糖尿病足溃疡患者147例,根据术后1周内发生感染的情况分为感染组与非感染组,Logistic回归分析外周血单核细胞NLRP3炎性小体、白细胞介素18和白细胞介素1β水平与术后早期感染的关系,并评估预测价值。 

结果与结论:①147例糖尿病足溃疡患者术后1周内发生感染35例(23.8%),分离致病菌47株,含革兰阳性菌25株(53.19%);革兰阴性菌22株(46.81%)。②单因素分析显示,Wagner分级、是否合并糖尿病肾病、手术时间、外周血NLRP3、Caspase-1及ASC的mRNA、白细胞介素18、白细胞介素1β水平均是影响术后早期感染的危险因素(均P < 0.05)。③多因素分析提示,Wagner分级、NLRP3、Caspase-1及ASC 的mRNA、高白细胞介素18、白细胞介素1β均是影响术后早期感染的独立危险因素(均P < 0.05)。④ROC曲线结果显示,NLRP3、Caspase-1及ASC的mRNA、白细胞介素18、白细胞介素1β对糖尿病足溃疡患者术后早期感染的区分效能曲线下面积(AUC)分别为0.823,0.705,0.676,0.811和0.853,联合预测效能AUC为0.915。⑤结果说明,糖尿病足溃疡患者主要是受到革兰阳性菌的影响,且外周血单核细胞NLRP3炎性小体、白细胞介素18和白细胞介素1β水平是影响术后早期感染的独立危险因素,上述指标的联合预测效能更优,值得进一步深入研究。

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that nucleotide binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome, interleukin-18, and interleukin-1β levels can induce an inflammatory cascade response to release inflammatory factors, affect metabolic stress, and damage endothelial cells involved in the development and progression of diabetic foot ulcers, which can provide a reference for early infections.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the predictive effect of peripheral blood mononuclear cell NLRP3 inflammasome, interleukin-18 and interleukin-1β levels on early infection after flap repair of diabetic foot ulcers. 
METHODS: A total of 147 patients with diabetic foot ulcers were selected and divided into infection group and non-infection group according to whether they were infected within 1 week after operation. Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between NLRP3 inflammasome, interleukin-18 and interleukin-1β levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and early postoperative infections, and to evaluate their predictive values. 
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In 147 patients with diabetic foot ulcers, 35 cases (23.81%) were infected within 1 week after operation, and 47 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated, including 25 strains of Gram-positive bacteria (53.19%) and 22 strains of Gram-negative bacteria (46.81%). Univariate analysis showed that Wagner grade, presence of comorbid diabetic nephropathy, operation time, peripheral blood NLRP3 mRNA, Caspase-1 mRNA, ASC mRNA, interleukin-18 and interleukin-1β levels were risk factors for early postoperative infections (all P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis suggested that Wagner grade, NLRP3 mRNA, Caspase-1 mRNA, ASC mRNA, high interleukin-18, interleukin-1β were independent risk factors (all P < 0.05). Receiver operator characteristic curve results showed that the area under the receiver operator characteristic curve of NLRP3 mRNA, Caspase-1 mRNA, ASC mRNA, interleukin-18 and interleukin-1β for early postoperative infections in patients with diabetic foot ulcers was 0.823, 0.705, 0.676, 0.811 and 0.853, respectively, and the area under the curve of combined predictive efficacy was 0.915. To conclude, patients with diabetic foot ulcers are mainly affected by Gram-positive bacteria, and the levels of NLRP3 inflammasome, interleukin-18 and interleukin-1β in peripheral blood mononuclear cells are independent risk factors for early postoperative infections. The combined prediction efficacy of these indicators is better and deserves further in-depth study.
