Abstract:
Objective To explore the features of peripheral blood immune cells in long-term survival recipients after liver transplantation.Methods The expression of T subsets (Th1,Th2,Th17,Th22,Tregs),NK cells,NKt cells,Bregs,MDSC in long-term survival recipients (postoperative follow-up time ≥5 years,30 cases),short-term survival recipients(postoperative follow-up time ≤1 year,15 cases) and healthy control (15 cases) were determined by flowcytometry.Results Th17 cells were significantly higher in the long-term group compared with short-term group and healthy control group(P <0.01).Tregs in long-term group compared with short-term group were significantly higher (P < 0.01),but the difference was not statistically significant compared with healthy control group (P > 0.05).NK cells were significantly higher in long-term group compared with short-term group and healthy control group (P < 0.01).MDSC were significantly higher in long-term group compared with short-term group and healthy control group (P <0.01).Conclusions Th17,Tregs,NK cells and MDSC were significantly higher in long-term survival of liver recipients,which may be related to immune tolerance.
