概括
在外周血液单核细胞 (PBMC) 中研究 TUBB1 促进体甲基化可以预测慢性乙型肝炎 (CHB) 患者的乙型肝炎e抗原血清转化 (HBeAg SC). 较低的基线TUBB1甲基化水平与成功的HBeAgSC相关,提供了一个新的预测生物标志物.
科学领域:
- 肝病学和免疫学 肝病学和免疫学
- 表观遗传学和分子生物学
- 病毒性肝炎研究研究
背景情况:
- 乙型肝炎抗原血清转化 (HBeAg SC) 是慢性乙型肝炎 (CHB) 缓解的一个关键指标.
- 对HBeAg SC的预测生物标志物有限,阻碍了有效的患者监测.
- 在CHB进展中的DNA甲基化变化以前已经被注意到.
研究的目的:
- 调查TUBB1促进体甲基化在外周血液单核细胞 (PBMCs) 中作为CHB患者HBeAg SC的预测生物标志物的潜力.
- 确定在72周的随访期内,TUBB1促进体甲基化水平与HBeAg SC发生之间的关联.
主要方法:
- 招募了271名参与者:145名HBeAg阳性CHB,94名HBeAg阴性CHB和32名健康对照 (HC).
- 使用MethyLight和mRNA水平通过PBMCs的定量实时PCR量化TUBB1促进体甲基化的量化.
- 在72周内对HBeAg阳性CHB患者进行纵向随访,以评估HBeAg SC.
主要成果:
- 与HBeAg阴性CHB患者和HCs相比,在HBeAg阳性CHB患者中观察到增加的TUBB1促进剂甲基化和降低的TUBB1mRNA水平.
- 在不同的CHB阶段,TUBB1促进体甲基化水平下降,在获得HBeAg SC.的患者中,在基线时较低.
- TUBB1促进物甲基化独立预测HBeAg SC (OR=0.683,P<0.001) 具有良好的预测值 (AUC=0.805,P<0.001).
结论:
- 在CHB患者中,TUBB1促进物甲基化显著改变,其水平随着疾病进展和血清转化而下降.
- TUBB1促进物甲基化作为一个独立且可靠的非侵入性生物标志物,用于预测CHB患者的HBeAg SC.
- 这一发现为监测CHB和预测治疗结果提供了一个新的工具.

Tuberculosis, more commonly referred to as TB, is an infectious disease stemming from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. While it primarily impacts the lungs, TB can also affect other body areas. Given its severity and global impact, timely and accurate diagnosis is crucial for controlling its spread and improving patient outcomes.
Several diagnostic approaches are used to detect TB. The conventional method is the Tuberculin Skin Test (TST), also known as the Mantoux test. However, this method has...

In clinical practice, the direct measurement of hepatic blood flow to evaluate liver function presents significant challenges due to the intricate and specialized nature of the necessary techniques. Consequently, healthcare professionals often rely on empirical estimates derived from thorough patient examinations and liver function tests to gauge liver health. Among the tools at their disposal, the Child–Pugh and MELD scoring systems stand out for their ability to categorize and assess...
