Abstract:
Objective To explore the changes and their clinical significance of peripheral blood myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC)and their subtypes in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).Methods From April 2016 to April 2017,99 hospitalized IBD patients in 2nd Xiangya Hospital of Central South University were enrolled as observation group one,which included 84 Crohn's disease (CD) (70 in active phase and 14 in remission phase)and 15 patients with ulcerative colitis(UC).At the same period,32 healthy controls were enrolled as healthy control group one.The proportion of peripheral blood MDSC and subtypes of CD patients,UC patients and healthy controls were examined.Observation group two including 62 IBD patients (47 CD and 15 UC)were selected from observation group one and 21 healthy individuals were selected from healthy control group one as healthy control.The serum levels of tumor necrosis factorα(TNF-α)and interleukin 8 (IL-8)were detected.Chi square test,t test and one-way analysis of variance were performed for statistical analysis.Pearson correlation was performed for correlation analysis.Results The proportion of MDSC in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of CD and UC patients of observation group one were both higher than that of healthy control group one ((6 .30 ± 3.97)% and (7.50±3.12)% vs.(3.94±2.25)%,respectively),and the differences were statistically significant (t=-3.22 and -3.21,both P<0.01).The proportion of granulocytic MDSC in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of CD patients was higher than that of UC patients and healthy control group one ((65.69±20.45)% vs.(50.93±13.56)% and (51.50±11.61)%,respectively),and the differences were statistically significant (t=2 .93 and 3 .79 ,both P<0 .01 ).The proportion of monocytic MDSC in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of UC patients was higher than that of CD patients and healthy control group one ((28.41±18.33)% vs.(18.38±17.43)% and (28.17±10.22)%,respectively),and the differences were statistically significant (t=2.22 and 2.93,both P<0.05 ).The proportion of granulocytic MDSC was higher and the proportion of monocytic MDSC was lower in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of CD patients in active phase than those of CD patients in remission phase ((67 .36 ± 2.27)% vs.(46.49±6.32)%,and (17.19±2.02)% vs.(34.33±6.12)%),and the differences were statistically significant (t=3.60 and 3.26,both P<0.01).The serum level of TNF-αof CD patients of observation group two was higher than that of UC patients and healthy control group two ((7.83± 6.54)ng/L vs.(4.77±2.12)ng/L and (4.40±2.05)ng/L),and the differences were statistically significant (t=2.01 and 2.53,both P<0.05).The serum level of IL-8 of UC patients of observation group two was higher than that of CD patients and healthy control group two ((65.80±45.14)ng/L vs. (25.80±22.32)ng/L and (26.40±22.37)ng/L),and the differences were statistically significant (t=4.87 and 4.21,both P<0.01).Granulocytic MDSC was positively correlated with TNF-α(r=0.319, P=0 .0 1 1 )and was negatively correlated with IL-8 (r=-0 .2 9 6 ,P=0 .0 1 9 ).Monocytic MDSC was negatively correlated with TNF-α(r=-0.260,P=0.040)and was positively correlated with IL-8 (r=0.306,P=0.016).Conclusions The proportion of granulocytic MDSC in peripheral blood mononuclear cells significantly increases in active CD patients,while the proportion of monocytic MDSC significantly increases in UC and CD patients in remission phase.Detection of MDSC and their subtypes maybe helpful in the differentiation of CD and UC as well as the diagnosis and treatment of CD.
