目的:通过检测子宫内膜息肉患者外周血辅助性T细胞( Th)中Th1/Th2平衡状态,探讨Th1/Th2与子宫内膜息肉的相关性。方法对25例子宫内膜息肉患者( A组)行宫腔镜下定位诊刮活检,病理诊断为子宫内膜息肉;选择20例孕前检查妇科阴道B超未见异常的健康女性( B组)。对两组均在非月经期抽取空腹肘静脉血,A组宫腔镜术前取血。采用三色荧光标记法流式细胞技术检测两组受检者外周血Th0细胞( CD4+IFN-γ+IL-4+)、Th1细胞( CD4+IFN-γ+IL-4-)/Th2细胞( CD4+IFN-γ-IL-4+)。结果两组中Th0细胞比较无显著性差异(P>0.05)。 A组Th1细胞(33.33±8.68)%明显高于B组(22.35±3.88)%,经比较有显著性差异(t=5.658,P<0.05);A组Th2细胞(3.25±0.89)%低于B组(3.72±0.79)%,但经比较无显著性差异(P>0.05);A组Th1/Th2比值(11.41±6.10)较B组(6.24±1.69)升高,经比较有显著性差异(t=4.047,P<0.05)。结论子宫内膜息肉与Th1/Th2平衡状态有一定的关联,这为研究子宫内膜息肉的发生机制提供了新的思路。
Objective To investigate the relationship between Th1/Th2 lymphocyte balance in peripheral blood and endometrial polyps. Methods There were 25 women with endometrial polyps and diagnosed by pathology ( group A) accepting hysteroscopic curettage biopsy. Without abnormal change in gynecological ultrasound results, another 20 healthy women receiving pre-pregnancy check without abnormal ultrasonic results were selected ( group B) .Fasting venous blood was sampled from all cases during non-menstrual period, and in group A blood samples were colleted before hysteroscope operation.The distributions of Th0 cells ( CD4+IFN-γ+IL-4+) and Th1 ( CD4+IFN-γ+IL-4-)/Th2 ( CD4+IFN-γ-IL-4+) were determined by 3-colored fluorescence labeled flow cytometry in two groups.Results The level of Th0 cells was not significantly different between two groups (P〉0.05).The level of Th1 cells in group A was 33.33 ±8.68%, which was significantly higher than that in group B (22.35±3.88%) (t=5.658,P〉0.05).The level of Th2 cells in group A was lower than that in group B (3.25±0.89%, 3.72 ±0.79%), but the difference was not significant (P〈0.05).Compared with group B, Th1/Th2 ratio was obviously higher in group A (11.41 ±6.10, 6.24 ±1.69) (t=4.047,P<0.05).Conclusion There is a correlation between endometrial polyps and the balance of Th1/Th2, which provides new idea in studying the mechanism of endometrial polyps.
