Abstract:
Objective To study the correlation between serum thioredoxin 1(TRX-1)and nucleotide-bind-ing oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3)expression levels and functional dyspepsia(FD)in children.Methods A total of 45 children with FD who were admitted to Shijiazhuang Maternal and Child Health Hospital from May 2022 to June 2023 were enrolled as the FD group.Another 40 healthy children were selected as the control group.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to measure the expression lev-els of serum TRX-1 and NLRP3 mRNA.Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation be-tween the expression levels of serum TRX-1 mRNA,NLRP3 mRNA and FD related scores.Multivariate Lo-gistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of FD.Results The expression levels of TRX-1 mRNA and NLRP3 mRNA in FD group were higher than those in control group(P<0.05).The mild and moderate FD groups had significantly lower serum TRX-1 mRNA and NLRP3 mRNA expression levels than the severe FD group,and the mild FD group had significantly lower serum TRX-1 mRNA and NLRP3 mRNA expression levels than the moderate FD group(P<0.05).The expression levels of TRX-1 mRNA and NLRP3 mRNA in serum were positively correlated with egigastric pain,abdominal distension or epigastric discomfort,nausea and vomiting(P<0.05),but were not correlated with early satiety,loss of appetite or food intake,and belching(P>0.05).The expression level of serum NLRP3 mRNA was positively correlated with the total score(P<0.05),while the expression level of serum TRX-1 mRNA was not correlated with the total score(P>0.05).The increased levels of serum TRX-1 mRNA and NLRP3 mRNA were independent risk factors for FD(P<0.05).Conclusion The expression levels of TRX-1 and NLRP3 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of FD.
