To observe the variation of soluble interleukin-6 receptor (sIL-6R) and soluble interleukin-6 receptor beta strands (sgp130) in patients with chronic hepatopath.
We examined sIL-6R and sgp130 level in 40 patients with chronic hepatitis (CH), 15 with cirrhosis following hepatitis, and 35 normal controls (NC) in serum by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method.
The content of sIL-6R and sgp130 in serum was higher in CH group (224.27 mug/L and 489.35 mug/L, respectively) than NC group (174.81 mug/L and 273.64 mug/L respectively). The two parameters above in patients with hepatocirrhosis were higher than those in patients with chronic hepatitis, and the content in order of quantity was severe>moderate>slight. There was significant difference among the three groups (P<0.05, P<0.01), and positive correlation between sIL-6R and sgp130 level (r=0.481, P<0.05), between sIL-6R, sgp130 level and total bilirubin level (r=0.417, r=0. 428, P<0.01). While sIL-6R, sgp130 was no significant correlation to ALT (r=0.173, r=0.182, P>0.05).
sIL-6R and sgp130 in serum are associated with the development of chronic hepatopath, and therefore can guide the assessment of prognosis.
观察慢性肝病患者可溶性白细胞介素-6受体(sIL-6R)和可溶性白细胞介素-6受体β链(sgp130)的变化。
采用酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)法检测40例慢性肝炎(CH)患者、15例肝炎后肝硬化患者及35例正常对照(NC)血清中的sIL-6R和sgp130水平。
CH组血清中sIL-6R和sgp130含量(分别为224.27μg/L和489.35μg/L)高于NC组(分别为174.81μg/L和273.64μg/L)。肝硬化患者上述两项指标高于慢性肝炎患者,且含量严重程度顺序为重度>中度>轻度。三组间差异有统计学意义(P<0.05,P<0.01),sIL-6R与sgp130水平呈正相关(r=0.481,P<0.05),sIL-6R、sgp130水平与总胆红素水平呈正相关(r=0.417,r=0.428,P<0.01)。而sIL-6R、sgp130与ALT无显著相关性(r=0.173,r=0.182,P>0.05)。
血清中sIL-6R和sgp130与慢性肝病的发生发展相关,可指导预后评估。
