Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the genotypes of HCV RNA in alcoholic and nonalcoholic HCV patients and contrast the distribution of the genotypes between those,identifying whether alcoholic patients have a higher susceptibility to certain genotype than nonalcoholic patients.Meanwhile,to detect the level of IFN-? and TNF-? for gaining the mechanism of hepatic lesion in alcoholic HCV patients.Method:114 HCV patients,according to the history of alcohol abuse,were divided into the alcohol group and nonalcohol group.The genotypes of HCV RNA in the two groups were performed by gene chip technique.Liver biopsy was practiced in 30 patients to diagnose.Ficoll gradient centrifugation and ELISA were used for extraction of PBMC and detection of IFN-?and TNF-?,respectively.Result:The genotype 1b was greater than other genotypes in the two groups,and there was no statistical significance(Alcohol group was 60% and nonalcohol group was 43.75%,P=0.22).The serum titers of HCV RNA of alcohol group were(1 1100?14 174.3)?103copies/ml and the nonalcohol group were(3 927.8?4 549.6)?103copies/ml,and there was statistical significance between the two groups(P=0.025).Among 18 alcoholic patients of 30 patients practiced liver biopsy,their liver inflammation was higher than nonalcoholic patients.The level of TNF-?of the alcohol was higher than that of nonalcohol,there was statistical significance between the two groups(P=0.048) and no statistical significance between those of IFN-?.Conclusion:Alcohol can promote the copies of HCV RNA in HCV patients and aggravate liver injury,but can't add susceptibility to certain genotypes of HCV RNA.The liver inflammation of alcoholic patients is higher than that of nonalcoholic patients.TNF-?,which builds an important effect in alcoholic HCV patients,is one of the important mechanisms in the liver injury.
