Abstract:
Objective To investigate the roles of the cytokine and chemokine in protective immunity of tuberculosis(TB) patient. Methods The RANTES( CCL5) and MIP1-?( CCL3) content of the Supernatant from PBMC stimulated with IL-4、TNF-?、MIP1-?and LPS in TB patients and normal control subjects was assessed using commercially available ELISA kit. Results The RANTES secretion was increased significantly in both TNF-?plus LPS groups[ (1 731. 86?925. 60) ng/L ] and IFN-?plus LPS [(2 120.78?1 120.72)ng/L] compared with LPS group[ (1 102. 56?873. 44) ng/L] in TB patients (P 0. 05). The MIP1-?secretion in response to IL-4、TNF-?、IFN-?was unchanged significantly in PBMC of TB patients and normal subjects. Conclusion TNF-?、IFN-?and RANTES may play important roles in protective immunity of TB patient
