目的 检测抗PUF60抗体在中国特发性炎性肌病(idiopathic inflammatory myopathy,IIM)患者中的阳性率,并探索其临床意义。方法 选取1989年10月至2016年8月于中日友好医院住院治疗的388例IIM患者[275例皮肌炎(dermatomyositis,DM)、76例多发性肌炎(polymyositis,PM)及37例肌炎重叠综合征],211例其他自身免疫性疾病患者[28例神经肌肉疾病(noninflammatory neuromuscular disease,NMD)、104例系统性红斑狼疮(systemic lupus erythematosus,SLE)及79例干燥综合征(Sj9gren syndrome,SS)]作为疾病对照组;同时选取门诊体检的167例健康成年人作为健康对照组(healthy controls,HCs)。采用酶联免疫吸附法(enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,ELISA)检测入组患者及HCs的抗体滴度,并联合免疫印迹实验验证ELISA结果的可靠性。组间比较用独立Mann-Whitney U检验,相关性分析采用Spearman秩检验。结果 抗PUF60抗体可见于11.6%(45/388)的IIM患者,17.3%(18/104)的SLE患者,10.1%(8/79)的SS患者,阳性率均高于HCs(IIM比HCs,P〈0.001;SLE比HCs,P〈0.001;SS比HCs,P=0.009)。且该抗体可见于各IIM亚组,包括11.3%(31/275)的DM患者和21.6%(8/37)的肌炎重叠综合征患者,阳性率均高于HCs(DM比HCs,P〈0.001;肌炎重叠综合征比HCs,P〈0.001)。此外,抗PUF60抗体在不同自身免疫性疾病中的临床相关性各异。在经典DM中,该抗体常见于肌炎抗体阴性(P=0.018)及并发技工手(P=0.046)的患者;而且该抗体在无肌病性皮肌炎中的阳性率较高,且多伴发皮肤溃疡(P=0.029)。在其他自身免疫性疾病中发现,抗体阳性的SS患者皮疹发生率及类风湿因子、抗SSB抗体、抗RNP抗体阳性比例增加,且抗体阳性的SLE患者外周血CD5+CD19+B细胞数目升高及抗双链DNA、抗Sm、抗SSB抗体阳性比例同样增加(P均〈0.05)。结论 抗PUF60抗体可见于中国DM、肌炎重叠综合征、SLE和SS患者,且在不同类型自身?
Objective The aim of our study was to detect the positive incidence and analyze the clinical significance of anti- PUF60 antibody in Chinese patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM ). Methods This study involved, from October 1989 to August 2016, 388 IIM patients (including 275 patients with dermato- myositis (DM) , 76 patients with polymyositis (PM) , and 37 patients with myositis overlap syndrome) , 211 pa-tients with control diseases (including 28 patients with noninflammatory neuromuscular disease ( NMD) , 104 pa-tients with systemic lupus erythematosus ( SLE) , and 79 patients with Sjogren’s syndrome (SS) ) as disease controls, and 167 healthy adults as healthy controls (HCs). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to detect serum anti- PUF60 antibody, and immunoblotting analyses were performed to validate the ELISA results. The results of two groups were compared using unpaired Mann-Whitney U test, and the relevance was analyzed using Spearman correlation analysis. Results Anti- PUF60 antibody was detected in 11. 6% (45/388) of patients with I IM , 17. 3% (18/104) of patients with SLE, and 10. 1% (8/79) of patients with SS, and the antibody positive rates were significantly higher than that of HCs (P〈0.001, P〈0.001, and P = 0.009, respectively). In IIM subgroups, anti- PUF60 antibody presented in 11.3% (31/275) of DM patients and 21. 6% (8/37) of patients with myositis overlap syndrome, and the antibody positive rates were significantly higher than that of HCs (P =0.001 and P 〈0.001, respectively). The clinical associations of anti- PUF60 anti-body in different groups of immune disease were varied. Classical DM patients with anti- PUF60 antibody had lower prevalence of currently known myositis antibodies ( P = 0. 018) and higher prevalence of mechanic’s hands (P = 0. 046). While, the prevalence of anti- PUF60 antibody was particularly hig
