Abstract:
Objective To detect the lymphocyte subpopulations in patients with early syphilis ,so as to know their immunity con‐dition and guide clinical treatment .Methods Flow cytometry was used to detect CD3+ ,CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocyte subpopula‐tions in peripheral blood from 59 volunteers ,including 20 normal individuals (Cont group) ,10 patients with primary syphilis (PS group) ,15 patients with secondary syphilis (SS group) and 14 patients with early latent syphilis (ELS group) .Results CD3+ , CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocyte subpopulations in each syphilis groups were higher than Cont group .SS group had the highest CD3+level ,second was PS group ,and third was ELS group .There was significant difference among three groups (P<0 .05) .The CD3+level of SS group was significantly higher than that of Cont group (P<0 .05) .ELS group had the highest CD4+ level ,second was SS group ,third was PS group .The difference of CD4+ level was significant among three groups (P<0 .05) .PS group had the high‐est CD8+ level ,second was SS group ,third was ELS group .However ,the difference of CD8+ level among three groups was not sig‐nificant (P>0 .05) .There was no significant difference of CD4+ /CD8+ among three groups(P>0 .05) .Conclusion Cytoimmunity in early syphilis enhances ,which could be benefit to eliminate Treponema Pallidum .
