ABSTRACT
AIM:
To investigate the feasibility of chemokines and cytokines potentially elevated in the bladder tissue of Hunner type interstitial cystitis (HIC) as urinary markers for distinguishing HIC from non-Hunner type interstitial cystitis (NHIC)METHODS:
Urine specimens were collected from 41 HIC patients, 25 NHIC patients, and 31 healthy volunteers (control). The supernatants of urine specimens were subjected to ELISA kits for measurements of 10 cytokines and chemokines, whose gene expression was known to be elevated in HIC bladder tissue. Urinary levels normalized by urinary creatinine (Cr) concentration were compared among three groups. Efficiency in differentiating IC and IC subtypes was explored by ROC analysis. The correlation of marker levels with symptom severity, assessed by O'Leary-Sant's symptom index (OSSI) and problem index (OSPI), was examined.RESULTS:
The urinary levels of CXCL10 and NGF were significantly higher in HIC than NHIC. CXCL10 and NGF differentiated HIC against NHIC with AUC of 0.78 and 0.68, respectively. Combination of CXCL10 and NGF levels yielded an AUS of 0.81. The CXCL10 cut-off of 53.2 pg/mg Cr had sensitivity of 46.1%, specificity of 93.7%, positive predictive value of 97.7%, and negative predictive value of 60.0%. The urinary level of other cytokines showed no significant difference between HIC and NHIC. Significant correlation with symptoms was detected for CXCL10 alone.CONCLUSION:
The results suggested that increased urinary level of CXCL10 combined with or without high NGF level could be a promising supplementary biomarker for differentiating HIC from NHIC with modest sensitivity and high specificity.Palavras-chave
