目的研究肝细胞癌患者免疫抑制性Treg细胞对CD8+T淋巴细胞穿孔素表达的影响。方法采集20例肝细胞癌患者和20名健康人的外周血,用流式分析法检测抗-CD3/CD28刺激48 h后CD8+T淋巴细胞的穿孔素表达情况。免疫磁珠分离法分离健康人CD8+T淋巴细胞和肝细胞癌患者Treg细胞,一组CD8+T淋巴细胞单独培养,另一组CD8+T淋巴细胞与Treg细胞共同培养,用流式细胞法检测抗-CD3/CD28刺激48 h后两组CD8+T淋巴细胞穿孔素表达情况。结果肝细胞癌患者外周血中CD8+T淋巴细胞穿孔素表达量与健康人相近,分别为(10.74±3.96)%和(12.6±2.48)%,差异无统计学意义(P〉0.05)。CD8+T淋巴细胞单独培养和与肝癌患者Treg细胞共培养后,健康人CD8+T淋巴细胞穿孔素表达量分别为(34.2±3.65)%和(20.43±4.52)%,差异有统计学意义(t=11.42,P〈0.01)。结论肝癌患者免疫抑制性Treg细胞可使CD8+T淋巴细胞穿孔素表达量降低。
Objective To investigate the influence of immunosuppressive regulatory T cells (Treg)in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)on perforin expression of CD8 + T lymphocytes.Methods Perforin expression of CD8 + T lymphocytes in 20 healthy subjects and 20 HCC patients was detected by flow cytometry.CD8 + T lymphocytes from 20 healthy subjects and Treg from 20 HCC patients were collected by magnetic activated cell sorting (MACS),then were divided into two groups:single culture of CD8 + T lymphocytes and co-culture of CD8 + T lymphocytes and Treg.Both groups were stimulated by anti-CD3/CD28 for 48 hours.Perforin expressions of CD8 + T lymphocytes in both groups were quantitatively detected by flow cytometry.Results Perforin expression of CD8 + T lymphocytes in HCC patients (10.74%&±3.96%)was similar with that in healthy subjects (12.6% &±2.48%)(P 〉0.05 ).However,perforin expression was significantly decreased after CD8 + T lymphocytes were co-cultured with Treg [(34.2%&±3.65%)and (20.43%&±4.52%), respectively (P 〈0.01)].Conclusion Treg could significantly reduce perforin expression of CD8 + T lymphocytes.
