The relationship between serum CXCL1 and PTEN mRNA levels and disease severity and prognosis in patients with acute cerebral infarction / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the relationship between the levels of serum CXC chemokine ligand 1(CXCL1)and phosphatase and tensin homology deleted on chromosome ten(PTEN)mRNA in patients with acute cerebral infarction and the severity and prognosis of the disease.Methods A total of 102 patients with acute cerebral infarction admitted to the hospital from March 2022 to March 2023 were enrolled in the study as the experimental group,and 85 healthy people who underwent physical examination in the hospital during the same period were enrolled as the control group.Serum samples of fasting venous blood were collected from people enrolled in the study.The serum CXCL1 level was detected by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent as-say.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qPCR)was used to detect the relative expression level of serum PTEN mRNA(hereinafter referred to as the level).According to the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score,the patients in the experimental group were divided into three groups with different de-grees of neurological impairment(severe group,moderate group and mild group),and the serum CXCL1 and PTEN mRNA levels of the three groups were compared.According to the cerebral infarction volume evaluated by computed tomography(CT)or magnetic resonance imaging(MRI),the patients in the experimental group were divided into small infarction group,medium infarction group and large infarction group,and the serum CXCL1 and PTEN mRNA levels of the three groups were compared.According to the modified Rankin scale(mRS),the patients in the experimental group were divided into the good prognosis group and the poor prog-nosis group,and the serum CXCL1 and PTEN mRNA levels were compared between the two groups.Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlation between serum CXCL1 and PTEN mRNA levels in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors affect-ing the prognosis of patients with acute cerebral infarction.Results The proportion of patients with a history of diabetes and hypertension and serum CXCL1 and PTEN mRNA levels in the experimental group were high-er than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).With the in-crease of the degree of neurological impairment,the serum CXCL1 level and PTEN mRNA level increased,and there were significant differences among the severe group,moderate group,and mild group(P＜0.05).With the increase of infarction size,the serum levels of CXCL1 and PTEN mRNA increased,and there were signifi-cant differences among small infarction group,medium infarction group,and large infarction group(P＜0.05).Compared with the good prognosis group,the poor prognosis group had significantly higher proportions of patients with a history of diabetes,a history of hypertension,and serum CXCL1 and PTEN mRNA levels(P＜0.05).There was a positive correlation between serum CXCL1 level and PTEN mRNA level in patients with acute cerebral infarction(r=0.479,P＜0.001).The levels of serum CXCL1 and PTEN mRNA,history of diabetes and hypertension were all influencing factors for the prognosis of patients with acute cerebral in-farction(P＜0.05).Conclusion The levels of serum CXCL1 and PTEN mRNA in patients with acute cere-bral infarction increase,which can be used to evaluate the disease severity and prognosis of patients.
