Abstract:
Objective To investigate the significance of B7-CD28/CTLA-4 (CD152),co-stimulatory molecules of T lymphocytes,in the onset,development and prognosis of genital congdyloma acuminatum (CA) in females.Methods Flow cytometry was utilized to detect the expression levels of CD80/CD86 in peripheral blood lymphocytes and of CD28/CD152 (CTLA-4) in CD4~+/CD8~+ T lymphocytes from 30 CA patients (17 primary CA,13 recurrent CA,15 at recovery stage of CA) and 15 healthy volunteers as con- trols.Results No significant difference was found for the frequencies of CD80~+,CD86~+,CD4~+/CD28~+ and CD8~+/CD28~+ lymphocytes between the primary or recurrent group and the control group.The frequencies of CD8~+/CD28~+,CD4~+/CD28~+ and CD80~+ lymphocytes were significantly higher in the recovery group than those in the recurrent group (P0.05).Conclusions There is an abnormal expression of co-stimulatory molecules B7-CD28/CTLA-4 (CD152) in periphoral blood lym- phocytes,CD4~+ and CD8~+ T lymphocytes in female patients with genital CA,and the expression abnormaility is closely linked with different disease stages of CA.
