The Journal of Practical Medicine 2016;32(10):1609-1612
Objective To determine the value of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (sTREM-1) in patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (sCOPD). Methods From 2015 January to 2015 August, 101 patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and 81 healthy controls were en-rolled. All subjects underwent pulmonary function test to record FEV1%pred and FEV1%FVC and their serum sTREM-1 levels were determined. Arterial blood gas analyses and COPD assessment tests were also conducted in stable COPD patients. Results Serum sTREM-1 levels were significantly higher in stable COPD patients than healthy controls (113.2 ± 31.5 pg/mL and 83.8 ± 17.9 pg/mL respectively, P=0.000). sTREM-1 levels were posi-tively correlated with CAT score (r=0.507, P=0.000), whereas negatively correlated with FEV1%pred and PaO2 (r = 0.507, P = 0.000; r = 0.439, P = 0.000). Conclusion sTREM-1 is a promising biomarker to evaluate sCOPD in the future.

7.Advances of human leukocyte antigen in juvenile idiopathic arthritis
Journal of Clinical Pediatrics 2010;(2):193-196
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common chronic arthropathy in childhood. Immune and genetic factors take part in the development of JIA and influence its consequence. Studies have identified association between JIA and genes encoding the human leukocyte antigens (HLA) . In this article we discuss the principles behind genetic studies of complex traits like JIA, and comprehensively catalog HLA candidate gene associated with JIA to date, and review several validated associations. Studies indicate that the HLA-Ⅰ, Ⅱ gene and their products play an important role in JIA pathogenesis, clinical course, hormonal effect and prognostic judgment. Studies in different ethnic groups indicate the main relationship between JIA and HLA is concentrated upon A, DR and DQ loci, especially the HLA-Ⅱ gene and some haplotypes. The different type of JIA is always with different HLA susceptible locus and protective locus. Different race, different region and different social environment also affect the JIA's susceptible gene polymorphism. Finally we discuss the problems existed in the study of JIA susceptibility and HLA polymorphism.
