Abstract:
Objective: To observe the changes of blood T-cell subpopulations, ASO,IL-6 and IL-8 in children with Tic disorder and explore the pathogenesis. Methods: T-cell subpopulations and concentration of IL-6, IL-8, ASO were measured in 52 children with tic disorder and 30 normal children using SAP and ELISA.Results:The numbers of CD3+、CD4+ and CD8+ cells had no significant difference between 32 children with tic disorder and 30 normal children, and the concentration of ASO in serum of children with tic disorder was markedly higher than those in normal children. The concentrations of IL-6 and IL-8 in serum had no significant difference between the two groups.Conclusion: There may be dysfunction in humoral immunity in tic disorder.
