Abstract: Objective To investigated the significance of serum B7-H3 in differential diagnosis of patients with benign and malignant obstructive jaundice.Methods The B7-H3 levels in 60 patients with obstructive jaundice who were divided into benign (32 patients) and malignant (28 patients) obstructive jaundice group were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay before and after operation.Results The serum B7-H3 levels of malignant obstructive jaundice group were significantly higher than that of benign group (9334.57 ± 1009.57) pg/mL vs (4450.81 ± 406.92) pg/mL,(P ＜ 0.01).The B7-H3 levels of benign and malignant obstructive jaundice group after operation were significantly lower than those before operation (2531.03 ± 415.64) pg/mL vs (4450.81 ±406.92) pg/mL,(5833.00 ± 2190.87) pg/mL vs (9334.57±1009.57) pg/mL,(P＜0.01).Conclusion B7-H3 participate in the inflammatory immune and tumor immune response,The serum B7-H3 can be used as differential diagnosis index of benign and malignant obstructive jaundice.
