概括
调节性T细胞 (Treg) 功能障碍和增加的microRNA-21 (miR-21) 与类风湿性关节炎 (RA) 活动有关. 较低的Treg频率和较高的miR-21水平可以作为RA进展的生物标志物.
科学领域:
- 免疫学 免疫学 免疫学
- 分子生物学分子生物学
- 类风湿病学 类风湿病学
背景情况:
- 类风湿性关节炎 (RA) 的病因是复杂的,调节性T细胞 (Treg) 功能障碍是可疑的因素.
- 微RNA-21 (miR-21) 呈现出亲骨质细胞原和免疫原性质,这表明它在RA进展中发挥了作用.
研究的目的:
- 研究血miR-21和Treg细胞频率作为RA进展的生物标志物.
- 评估RA患者miR-21和Treg频率之间的关系.
主要方法:
- 60名RA患者根据DAS28-ESR被分为不活跃 (n=30) 和活跃 (n=30) 组.
- 使用流细胞计测量测量了Treg细胞的频率.
- 血miR-21表达水平使用实时定量PCR量化量化.
主要成果:
- 与不活跃的患者相比,活跃的RA患者表现出显著更高的miR-21表达 (p=0.004) 和较低的Treg频率 (p<0.001).
- 特雷格频率与DAS-28-ESR负相关 (r=-0.508,p<0.001),而miR-21折叠变化与正相关 (r=0.334,p<0.009).
- 在miR-21和Treg频率之间没有发现相关性. 在区分活性与非活性RA时,Treg频率显示出比miR-21 (AUC=0.717) 更高的诊断准确性 (AUC=0.907) .
结论:
- 特雷格频率和miR-21水平与RA疾病活性有差异性相关.
- 对Treg频率的下调和对miR-21的上调可以作为RA活动的潜在生物标志物.

T Cell Types and Functions
946
When T cells with CD4 markers are activated, they give rise to two types of effector cells: helper T cells and regulatory T cells. Meanwhile, T cells with CD8 markers differentiate into effector cytotoxic T cells. The differentiation of CD4 T cells into helper T cell subsets, such as Th1, Th2, and Th17 cells, is dependent on the antigen type, antigen-presenting cell, and regulatory cytokines.

The JAK-STAT Signaling Pathway
8.6K
Several cytokine receptors have tightly bound Janus kinase or JAK proteins attached at their cytosolic tail. Small signaling molecules such as cytokines, growth hormones, or prolactins bind to the cytokine receptors and initiate their dimerization. The dimerization brings the cytosolic JAKs together that trans-phosphorylate and activates each other. The activated JAKs now phosphorylate cytosolic tails of the cytokine receptors, which serve as binding sites for adaptor proteins such as SH2...
