摘要: 目的 研究斑秃患者外周血中CD4+CD25+调节性T细胞数量及CD4+、CD8+ T淋巴细胞亚群数量与斑秃疾病严重程度的关系。方法 对斑秃进行病情分组,以流式细胞仪检测17例重度、15例局限型斑秃患者和25例正常人对照者外周血中有功能活性的CD4+CD25+调节性T细胞(即CD4+CD25+ Foxp 3 T 细胞)在CD4+ T淋巴细胞中的比率,CD4+和CD8+占T淋巴细胞的比率。 结果 重度斑秃患者外周血中有功能活性的CD4+CD25+ Foxp 3 T细胞占CD4+ T细胞比率为0.54% ± 0.31%,显著低于正常人对照组(3.21% ± 0.76%)及局限型斑秃患者(2.71% ± 0.37%,P < 0.001);与正常人对照组比较,差异无统计学意义(P > 0.05)。重度斑秃患者的CD4+占T淋巴细胞的比率为32.61% ± 3.48%,显著低于正常人对照组(43.0% ± 3.63%,P < 0.001),而CD8+占T淋巴细胞的比率为40.96% ± 8.54%,显著高于正常人对照组(25.23% ± 2.14%,P < 0.001)。局限型斑秃患者的此两项指标分别为41.25% ± 4.27%和26.6% ± 2.28%,与对照组差异无统计学意义(P > 0.05)。重度斑秃患者的CD8+占T淋巴细胞的比率与CD4+CD25+ Foxp 3调节性 T 细胞占CD4+ T细胞的比率有负相关关系(r = -0.94,P < 0.001)。结论 重度斑秃可能与外周血中CD4+CD25+ T细胞数量的减少和功能活性的降低有关。

Abstract: Objective To investigate the relationship between the severity of alopecia areata (AA)and frequencies of CD4+CD25+Foxp 3 T cells, CD4+ T cells, and CD8+ T cells in peripheral blood of AA patients. Methods Flow cytometry was employed to measure the percentages of CD25+Foxp 3 regulatory T cells and CD25+ T cells among CD4+ T cells, as well as the percentages of CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells among T cells from the peripheral blood of 17 severe AA patients, 15 local AA patients and 25 normal controls. Results The percentage of active CD4+CD25+Foxp 3 T cells was significantly lower in the peripheral blood of severe AA patients than that in the normal controls and local AA patients (0.54% ± 0.31% vs 3.21% ± 0.76%, 0.54% ± 0.31% vs 2.71% ± 0.37%, respectively, both P < 0.001), while no significant difference was found between the latter two groups (P > 0.05). In severe AA patients, the percentage of CD4+ T cells was significantly lower than that in normal controls (32.61% ± 3.48% vs 43.0% ± 3.63%, P < 0.001), while the percentage of CD8+ T cells was significantly higher than that in normal controls (40.96% ± 8.54% vs 25.23% ± 2.14%, P < 0.001). The percentages of CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells of local AA patients were 41.25% ± 4.27% and 26.60% ± 2.28%, respectively, without noticeable difference from those of normal controls (P > 0.05). The percentage of CD8+ T cells of severe AA patients was negatively correlated to that of CD4+CD25+ Foxp 3 regulatory T cells (r = -0.94, P < 0.001). Conclusion The severity of AA may be related to the decrease of percentage and functionality of CD4+CD25+ T cells in peripheral blood of these patients.
