Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression characteristics of T lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood of patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma(MM),as well as the equilibrium relationship between the ratio of helper T cells 17(Thl7)and CD4+CD25+Foxp3+regulatory T cells(Treg cells),and analyze their clinical significance in the pathogenesis of MM.Methods The proportion of CD3+,CD3+CD4+,CD3+CD8+cells,Th17 cells,Treg cells in peripheral blood and the ratios of CD3+CD4+/CD3+CD8+、Th17/Treg were analyzed between the 30 patients with MM in newly diagnosed and 20 healthy volunteers(control group),then analysis the differences between MM patients and control group.In 30 cases of newly diagnosed MM patients(patient group)and 20 healthy volunteers(control group),total T cells in peripheral blood(CD3+),auxiliary T cells /induced T cells(CD3+CD4+),the inhibitory T cell /cytotoxic T cells(CD3+CD8+),the ratio of(CD3+CD4)/(CD3+CD8+),the percentages of Th17 cells and Treg cell and the ratio of Thl7 and Treg were detected,and the differences between MM patients and control group were compared.Results The ratio of inhibition/cytotoxic T cells(CD3+CD8+)in the patient group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).(CD3+CD4+)/(CD3+CD8+)ratio in the patient group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05);in the patient group,the ratio of Th17 cells in peripheral blood of patients was(5.9 ± 1.9)%,which was increased compared with the control group(4.0 ± 0.9)%(P<0.05);the ratio of Treg cells in the patient group was(1.2 ± 0.3)%,which was decreased com-pared with the control group(2.1 ± 0.4%)(P< 0.05);and the ratio of Th17/Treg cells was significantly higher in the patient group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Peripheral blood T cell subsets disorder exists in pa-tients with MM,Thl7/Treg cell imbalance caused by the increase of Thl7 cell ratio and the decrease of the ratio of Treg cells,and the imbalance of immune system may play a role in the occurrence and development of MM,and has some guiding value for the prognosis.
