The relationship between T lymphocyte subsets and hepatitis B reactivation after chemotherapy / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the changes ofT lymphocyte subsets CD3+,CD4+,CD8+ in hepatitis B reactivation after chemotherapy.Methods Flow cytometry was used to detect T lymphocyte subsets of 32 patients with hepatitis B reactivation before and after chemotherapy.In addition,25 patients without hepatitis B reactivition were chosen as control group.Results After chemotherapy,the percentage of CD3+ and CD4+ T lymphocytes and the ratio of CD4+/CDs+ were significantly reduced than those before chemotherapy (P ＜ 0.05).However,the percentage of CD8+ T lymphocytes was not significantly changed(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The chemotherapy can change the number and ratio of T lymphocyte subsets,the inhibition of the cellular immune function is one of the reason of hepatitis B virus reactivation.
