目的 探讨2型糖尿病(T2DM)周围神经病变(diabetic peripheral neuropathy, DPN)患者外周血中CD4+CD25+Foxp3+调节性T细胞(Treg)的变化及其检测的临床应用。方法 采用流式细胞技术多色荧光分析法,对20例初诊老年2型DPN患者(DPN组)、20例初诊老年T2DM不伴并发症患者(T2DM组)及20例性别、年龄匹配的健康对照者(CON组)外周血中Treg细胞进行测定,对各组结果进行统计分析并进行比较。结果 与CON组相比,DPN组和T2DM组患者外周血CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg细胞数量均减少(P<0.05),且DPN组少于T2DM组患者(P<0.05)。DPN组患者外周血CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg细胞比例与密歇根神经病变筛查量表(Michigan neuropathy screening instrument, MNSI)评分呈负相关,但无统计学意义;与密歇根糖尿病神经病变评分量表(Michigan diabetic neuropathy score, MDNS)评分负相关,有统计学意义(r=-0.339,P<0.05)。结论 老年DPN患者外周血CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg细胞数量减少,可能在DPN的发生、发展中起到一定作用。 |

Abstract: |
Objective To investigate the changes of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T cell (Treg) in the peripheral blood of elderly patients with type 2 diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) and its clinical implication. Methods Treg cells were detected by flow cytometry in the peripheral blood of elderly patients with type 2 DPN (DNP group, 20 cases), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with no complications (T2DM group, 20 cases) and age-matched healthy volunteers (CON group, 20 cases). The results were statistically analyzed and compared between different groups. Results The numbers of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg in DPN group and T2DM group were significantly less than that in the healthy volunteers (P<0.05), and the number of Treg cells in DPN group was significantly less than that in T2DM group (P<0.05). The proportion of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg was negatively associated with Michigan neuropathy screening instrument (MNSI) scores in DPN group, but with no statistical significance; however, the proportion had a significantly negative correlation with Michigan diabetic neuropathy score (r=-0.339, P<0.05). Conclusion The number of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg is decreased in the peripheral blood of elderly patients with DPN, which may play a role in the development and progression of DPN in elderly patients. |
