目的:研究肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)在慢性肝病中的作用和意义.方法:采用放射免疫分析法测定20例慢性迁延性肝炎(CPH),20例慢性活动性肝炎(CAH)和51例肝炎后肝硬变(LC)患者血清中TNF-α的含量.结果:CAH和LC患者血清TNF-α含量(1.11±0.59μg/L,0.92±0.66μg/L)显著高于正常对照组[0.56±0.08μg/L(P<0.01,P<0.05)].肝病中TNF-α的含量与其胆红质(BIL)和谷丙转氨酶(ALT)的含量呈正相关(r=0.9791,P<0.05).LC组中,按Child肝功分级标准,A,B,C各组血清TNF-α含量依次递增,且各组间有显著差异(P<0.01).LC合并感染者血清TNF-α含量(1.88±0.87μg/L)显著高于未合并感染者[0.89±0.43μg/L(P<0.01)],且易发生肝-肾综合征(P<0.05).结论:TNF-α可能参与慢性肝病肝细胞损害过程,其含量越高,肝功能损害就越重.同时,血清中高浓度的TNF-α可能是LC患者发生合并症的原因之一.
Objective: To study the role and significance of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in chronic liver disease. Methods: Serum levels of TNF-α in 20 patients with chronic persistent hepatitis (CPH), 20 patients with chronic active hepatitis (CAH) and 51 patients with posthepatitic cirrhosis (LC) were determined by radioimmunoassay. Results: The levels of TNF-α in serum of CAH and LC patients (1.11 ± 0.59μg / L, 0.92 ± 0.66μg / L) were significantly higher than those of the normal control group [0.56 ± 0.08μg / L <0.01, P <0.05)]. The level of TNF-α in liver disease was positively correlated with the levels of bilirubin and ALT (r = 0.9791, P <0.05). LC group, according to Child’s liver function grading standards, serum TNF-αlevels in groups A, B and C increased in sequence with significant difference (P <0.01). The level of TNF-α in serum of LC co-infected patients (1.88 ± 0.87μg / L) was significantly higher than that of non-co-infected patients (0.89 ± 0.43μg / L, P <0.01) - Renal syndrome (P <0.05). Conclusion: TNF-α may be involved in the process of liver cell damage in chronic liver disease. The higher the content of TNF-α, the more severe liver damage. In the meantime, the high concentration of serum TNF-α may be one of the causes of complications in LC patients.
