ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the relationship between the proportion of Th17 cells and IL-17 expression in the peripheral blood and their clinical significance in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods The proportion of Th17 cells determined by flow cytometry (FCM) and IL-17 detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The data was analyzed from 60 untreated patients with NSCLC (NSCLC group) and 20 healthy volunteers (control group).Results The Th17 cells proportion in CD+3 T-cells in NSCLC group was significantly higher than that in control group [(1.23±0.41) % vs (1.05±0.28) %,t =1.679,P =0.097].The expression levels of Th17 cells in peripheral blood of patients with squamous cell carcinoma was significantly higher than that in adenocarcinoma patients [(1.31±0.39) % vs (1.09±0.41) %,t =2.093,P =0.041].The concentration of IL-17 of patients with NSCLC was significantly higher than that in control group [(21.11±7.87) pg/ml vs (17.64±5.07) pg/ml,t =2.280,P =0.027].The expression levels of serum IL-17 of squamous cell carcinoma patients was significantly higher than that of adenocarcinoma patients [(23.11±8.73) pg/ml vs (18.54±6.38) pg/ml,t =2.203,P =0.032].As clinical stage progressed,the proportion of Th17 cells and IL-17 expression were significantly downtrend [F =3.151,P =0.032,F =4.132,P =0.010].Conclusion The levels of Th17 cells and IL-17 in the peripheral blood of patients with NSCLC significantly correlated with the pathological types and TNM stage,might play an important role in the course of the disease.
