Abstract:
Objective To detect mRNA expressions of STING and type Ⅰ interferons(IFN-α and IFN-β) in peripheral blood mononuclear ceils (PBMCs) of patients with chronic hepatitis C(CHC).Methods 113 patients with CHC and 94 healthy controls were collected from Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University during January 2015 and January 2016.Expressions of mRNA of STING,RIG-1,IFN-α and IFN-β were detected by real-time quantitative PCR,and their relative expression values were obtained by 2-△△Ct method and the results were statistically analyzed.Results The expression of mRNA of STING,RIG-1,IFN-α and IFN-β in CHC were 0.018,0.361,0.578 and 0.573 times than its in healthy controls respectively and the differences were statistically significant (t-8.28,4.26,2.18 and 2.07,all P < 0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that mRNA expressions of STING in healthy controls were positively correlated with that of IFN-α mRNA and IFN-β mRNA (r=0.487 and 0.207,all P<0.05),which had no correlation in CHC (r=0.174 and 0.091,all P>0.05).The expressions of STING mRNA was positively correlated with that of RIG-1 mRNA in healthycontrols (r=0.222,P<0.05),but there was no correlation of expression in CHC between STING mRNA and RIG-1 mRNA (r=-0.029,P>0.05).Conclusion Compared with healthy controls,the expression of STING,RIG-1,IFN-α and IFN-β mRNA were all reduced.There was positive correlation between STING and RIG-1,IFN-α and IFN-β in healthy controls,but no correlation in CHC.
