Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of hepatitis B virus(HBV) on the expression of high sensitive C-reaction protein(hs-CRP) and its clinical implication.Methods mRNA expression of hs-CRP in HepG2 and HepG2.2.15 cells was measured by RT-PCR,serum hs-CRP levels in patients with HBV infection and in healthy individuals were measured by biochemical analyzer Olympus5400,the expression of hs-CRP difference among patients with chronic hepatitis B,liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma were analyzed.Results Expression of hs-CRP mRNA was higher in HepG2.2.15 cells than in HepG2 cells,serum hs-CRP levels was much higher in HBV patients as compared to healthy individuals ( P<0.05 ),hs-CRP was detected at higher levels in patients with liver cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma than those with chronic hepatitis B.Conclusion HBV can upregulated the expression of hs-CRP,which is associated with the disease progression.
