Abstract:
The autologous mixed lymphocyte reaction(AMLR)is thought to represent the self regula-tion and interaction between T and non-T cells,and play an important role in immune surveil-lance and resistancce to viral infection.This paper established the method of AMLR and investi-gated the changes of AMLR in 102 patients with HBV infection of different clinical types.Theresults showed that all patients except that HBsAg positive carriers and chronic persistent hep-atitis B had unchanged AMLR demonstrated impaired AMLR.Among them AMLR was foundsignificantly decreased in patients with severe viral hepatitis B and cirrhosis,next in patients withchronic active hepatitis B,then in patients with acute hepatitis B.It was suggested that theAMLR relate to the clinical types.Also we discovered that AMLR was associated with serologicevidance of actival HBV replication.Further study showed that the impaired value for theAMLR corrlated with the stimulators dysfunction,but not the defect of the AMLR correlatedwith the stimulators dysfunction,but not the defect of responders.AMLR was indueced greatlyby DR antigen,partly by DQ antigen.Induction of DR antigen and DQ antigen on the stimula-tors in patients with hepatitis B for AMLR was obviously low compared to normal invididual.Itreflect dysfunction for intercellular recognition,and may contribute to the impaired regulation ofimmune function in the mechanism of hepatitis B.
