ABSTRACT
Objective To continue to study if there is any other pathogenic gene expression related to Th1/Th2 abnormal differentiation,based on the author′s previous results,which have shown that Th1/Th2 unbalance is due to the cytokines and cytokine receptors of differentiation.Methods TaqMan Real time PCR was used to detect the gene expression of Th1/Th2 control in recent onset systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients ( n =38).The genes include I?B,IRF 1,STAT4,GATA3,IL 4R and the others such as CCR1,CCR2,CCR4,CCR5,caepase 1 and CD38,which participate in inflammation,cell apoptosis and so on.Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients ( n =50) and normal people ( n =28) were control groups.Results ① Resent onset SLE patients comparing to normal peopleSTAT4 expression in IL 2/IL 12R ? 2/STAT4 access which induced Th1 differentiation increased significantly ( P 0 05) ;GATA3 expression which induced Th2 differentiation in IL 4/IL 4R/GATA3 access decreased significantly ( P
