Abstract:
Objective To study the histone acetylation level of CD4+ T cells in peripheral blood of lupus nephritis ,to explore the role of histone acetylation in pathogenesis of lupus nephritis .Methods According to Feng X ,Bernstein ,Wagner S J and other scholars′s classification criteria for LN ,those who met the following conditions considered for the activity of LN :proteinuria >0 .5 g/d ,change or activity of urinary sediment (hematuria > 5 red blood cell /Hp ,or pyuria > 5 Hp white blood cells ,or 1 cell type/Hp) ,serum creatinine increased >1 .2 mg/L ,and the exclusion of infection ,kidney stones and other causes .Lupus nephritis pa‐tients were divided into inactive group (group I) 8 people ,active group (group A) 10 people .18 patients with LN and 8 normal con‐trols were collected peripheral blood 50 mL ,density gradient centrifugation method (Ficoll method) for separation of mononuclear cells in peripheral blood;CD4+ T cell was analyzed by immunomagnetic beads ,extracted histone acetylation level and detected H3/H4 protein by the acetylation of histone H3/H4 kits and the relationship of histone H3/H4 acetylation with diseases was analyzed . Results First ,compared with group N ,the histone H3 and H4 of CD4+ T cells in peripheral blood both in A and I of group LN pa‐tients showed low acetylation status (P<0 .01);Second ,the acetylation level of histone H4 in group A was lower than that in group I (P<0 .01) ,histione H3 acetyl the level of the group of two groups had no statistical significant (P>0 .05) .Third ,it was nega‐tively related to the acetylation level of histone H4 and 24 h urinary protein excretion(r= -0 .661 ,P<0 .05) .Conclusion Histone H3 and histone H4 of the CD4+ T cells showed low acetylation may be involved in the pathogenesis of lupus nephritis .The acetyla‐tion level of histone H4 in CD4+ T cells may be related to the activity of the LN .
