In this pilot study, the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and healthy volunteers were stained and analyzed by flow cytometry to distinguish gamma-delta T cells and its subtypes, and then to report the distribution of gamma-delta T cells and iyts subtypes and their correlation with ankylosing spondylitis. A total of 17 patients with active AS and 10 age- and gender- matched healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study, and their peripheral blood were drawn to collect mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Flow cytometry was used to analyze gamma-delta T cell subpopulations by measuring the surface and intracellular expressions of phenotypic markers. Serum levels of inflammatory and bone turnover markers were measured, and their correlations with subpopulations of gamma-delta T cells were evaluated. In patients with AS, the Vdelta2 fractions within gamma-delta T cells and CD3+ T cells decreased significantly, in particular, the proportions of CD27+ Vdelta2 T cells, CD86+CD80+ Vdelta1 T cells, and IL17A-secreting and TNFalpha-secreting Vdelta1 T cells within the parental cells decreased significantly. gamma-delta T cells/PBMCs, Vdelta2 cells/gamma-delta T cells, and Vdelta2 cells/CD3+ T cells were negatively correlated with CRP, whereas Vdelta1 cells/CD3+ T cells were negatively correlated with ESR. Vdelta1 cells/gamma-delta T cells were positively correlated with CRP, gamma-deltaT cells/PBMCs were positively correlated with beta-CTx, CD69+CD25+ and IL-17A-secreting Vdelta1 cells were positively correlated with TP1NP, and CD69+CD25+ Vdelta1 and Vdelta2 cells were positively correlated with osteocalcin. Decreases in peripheral Vdelta2, CD27+ Vdelta2, CD86+CD80+ Vdelta1, and IL17A or TNFalpha-secreting Vdelta1 T cells are associated with AS. The correlations between gamma-delta T cell subpopulations and CRP and the CD69+CD25+ subpopulation with TP1NP or osteocalcin suggest that an imbalance in peripheral gamma-delta T cell subpopulations contributes to the pathogenesis of AS.</p>","PeriodicalId":20235,"journal":{"name":"Physiological research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10805258/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139432843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it is necessary to effectively evaluate the severity of cough for its diagnosis and treatment. There are subjective and objective methods for assessing cough. These methods should help describe the heterogeneity of cough phenotypes and may establish better treatment by monitoring response to nonpharmacological or pharmacological therapies. It is important to keep in mind that the clinical assessment of cough should include both tools that measure the amount and severity of the cough. The importance of a combined subjective and objective evaluation for a comprehensive assessment of cough has been advocated in the guidelines of the European Respiratory Society on cough evaluation.

However, it is not clear how cisplatin regulates the pyroptosis of RTECs cells in AKI. The current study aimed to determine the regulation mechanism of AKI induced by cisplatin. We used cisplatin to induce AKI in vivo. We performed H&E staining of mouse kidney tissue sections and evaluated serological indicators of kidney injury (including blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)). We used immunohistochemistry and western blot to detect the important substrate protein gasdermin D (GSDMD) and key target caspase-1 of pyroptosis, respectively.

Exosome-derived miR-122 affected cisplatin-induced AKI and HK2 cells pyroptosis by regulating the expression of embryonic lethal abnormal vision (ELAVL1).
