Abstract:
Objective To investigate the proportion of CD4+CD25highTreg and CD4+CD25+CD127low/-Treg in peripheral blood in patients with chronic hepatitis B(CHB) and determine the relationship between the proportion of CD4+CD25+Treg and clinical parameters.Methods Fresh isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs) of 28 patients with CHB and 24 healthy donors were analyzed for the proportion of CD4+CD25+Treg using flow cytometry by surface staining for CD4-PC5,CD25-FITC,CD127-PE.HBsAg,HBsAb,HBeAg,HBeAb and HBcAb were evaluated.HBV DNA levels were measured using real-time RT-PCR.Results The proportions of CD4+CD25highTreg to CD4+ T cells(3.36%?2.59%) and CD4+CD25+CD127low/-Treg(4.05%?1.63%) to CD4+ T cells in patients with CHB were higher than those in health controls(1.60%?0.66%,1.75%?0.83%,P100U?L-1) had a higher fraction(4.26%?3.10%) of CD4+CD25highTreg in peripheral blood than those patients with low level ALT(ALT
