Circulating immune complexes (ICs) were isolated from cerebrospinal fluids (CSFs) of patients with tuberculous meningitis (TBM), non-tuberculous neurological diseases by a polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitation method. Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigen 5 was detected in CICs of 30% patients with TBM, by sandwich ELISA. CIC level decreases during antituberculosis chemotherapy and therefore its detection can provide a method to monitor the therapeutic schedule in patients with TBM.
采用聚乙二醇(PEG)沉淀法从结核性脑膜炎(TBM)患者及非结核性神经系统疾病患者的脑脊液(CSF)中分离循环免疫复合物(ICs)。通过夹心ELISA法在30%的TBM患者的循环免疫复合物中检测到结核分枝杆菌抗原5。循环免疫复合物水平在抗结核化疗期间下降,因此其检测可为监测TBM患者的治疗进程提供一种方法。
