Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the correlation between the levels of serum secreted frizzled-related protein 5 (SFRP5), sputum CXC chemokine receptor 2(CXCR2), chemokine receptor 1 (CCR1) and airway inflammation in children with acute asthma.Methods:A total of 53 cases of acute asthma (acute group), 50 cases of asthma at remission stage (stable group) and 50 cases of healthy children (control group) in our hospital from January 2017 to January 2020 were enrolled.The expression levels of serum SFRP5, CXCR2 and CCR1, as well as pulmonary function indicators (FEV1/FVC, FEV1%), fractional exhaled nitric oxide(FeNO), and airway inflammation-related cytokines[interleukin(IL-13), vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)] were detected, respectively.Results:The levels of serum SFRP5 was the lowest in acute group, followed by stable group, which was the highest in control group, with statistic difference ( P<0.05). The mRNA expression levels of CXCR2 and CCR1 were the highest in acute group, followed by stable group, which were the lowest in control group, with statistic difference ( P<0.05). The predicted values of FEV1/FVC and FEV1% in acute group were significantly lower than those in stable group and control group, while FeNO in acute group was significantly higher than those in stable group and control group ( P<0.05). The predicted values of FEV1/FVC and FEV1% in stable group were significantly lower than those in control group, and FeNO was significantly higher than that in control group( P<0.05). The values of FEV1/FVC and FEV1% were the lowest in acute group, followed by stable group, which were the highest in control group ( P<0.05). The values of serum IL-13 and VEGF were the highest in acute group, followed by stable group, which were the lowest in control group, with statistic difference( P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that the level of serum SFRP5 was positively correlated with lung function index FEV1/FVC and FEV1% to the predicted value( P<0.05), and negatively correlated with the levels of inflammatory index IL-13 and FeNO ( P<0.05). The levels of sputum CXCR2 and CCR1 were negatively correlated with lung function index FEV1/FVC and FEV1% to predicted value( P<0.05), and positively correlated with inflammatory index IL-13, VEGF and FeNO( P<0.05). Conclusion:Serum SFPR5 is decreased, and septum mRNA expression levels of CCR1 and CXCR2 are elevated in asthma children, so these three indicators could be used to predict the severity of airway inflammation in asthma children, thus providing reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
