Abstract:
Objective To study the content of interleukin- 6 (IL-6) and the altering pattern of erythrocyte immunity and T cell subgroup in the blood of outer circulation in the patients with cerebral glioma, and to expl ore their relationship and the clinical significance. Methods Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the content o f IL-6. The immunoabsorption was employed to examine the erythrocytic immune ac tivity and its regulatory function. Streptavidin-Peroxidase (S-P) was used to determine the cell number of CD3 (cluster of differentiation 3), CD4, CD8. Results The content of IL-6 in the group with cerebral glioma i s significantly lower than that in the control group (P0.05). Conclusion The weakening of immune function is obse rved in the patients with cerebral glioma. Testing of the content of IL-6, eryt hrocyte immunity and the activity of T subgroup has important clinical significa nce in the occurrence, development, treatment, outcome and prognosis of the cere bral glioma.
