[CHANGING IMMUNE STATUS IN PATIENTS WITH REACTIVE SPONDYLOARTHRITIS OF CHLAMIDIAL GENESIS].

Aim - to identify deviations in immune parameters in patients with reactive chlamydial spondyloarthritis, allowing more targeted correction of immune status and improve the quality of treatment of these patients. A comparative immunological examination of 14 patients with reactive spondyloarthritis of chlamydial etiology before and after specific treatment and practically healthy people was carried out. CIC, lymphocytotoxic and granulocytotoxic antibodies, including autoimmune, LIF including autoantigens (cartilage, bone, sinewy), neutrophilic leukocytes, lymphocytes, IL-1, IL-4, IL-6, TNF-α, CD-3, CD-4, CD-8, CD-25, Ig A, G, M. The immune status of patients before treatment was characterized by a perverse immune response, which was characterized by hyperactivation of the T-lymphocytic link of immunity, impaired suppressive link of the immune system, a tendency to autoimmune aggression, incomplete anti-infectious immunity, and chronic inflammatory process. Antichlamydial treatment with the eradication of the pathogen within 1 month led to a partial normalization of the immune response, normalization of the neutrophilic / lymphocytic ratio and the amount of granulocytotoxic and lymphocytotoxic antibodies. Desensitization of the organism to autoantigens (cartilage and synovial tissue) was observed. Comprehensive analysis of immunological parameters before and after treatment in patients with reactive spondyloarthritis of chlamydial etiology allows monitoring the effectiveness of the treatment and increases its effectiveness.
