Abstract:

Objective To investigate the changes and clinical significance of serum C-X-C chemokine receptor 5(CXCR5),soluble programmed cell death receptor-1(sPD-1) and homocysteine(Hcy) in acquired immune deficiency syndrome(AIDS) patients during antiretroviral therapy(ART). Methods Totally,120 AIDS patients were enrolled in AIDS group,and 45 healthy subjects were enrolled as control group. The human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)-1 load,the absolute number of CD4+T cells,CXCR5,sPD-1,Hcy,blood lipids [triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)] were determined in AIDS patients on 1 d before therapy and 3,6 and 12 months after therapy,respectively. Pearson correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlations between each index and the absolute number of CD4+ T cells and HIV-1 load. Results Before therapy,the levels of sPD-1 and Hcy in AIDS group were higher than those in control group(P<0.01),and CXCR5 and the absolute number of CD4+T cells were lower than those in control group(P<0.01). Compared with those before therapy,with the prolongation of ART time,the absolute numbers of CD4+ T cells and CXCR5 levels in AIDS patients were increased(P<0.05). The peak was reached at 6 months after therapy. Hcy,TC,TG and LDL-C were increased after 12 months of therapy(P<0.05). HDL-C did not change. The HIV-1 load began to decrease after 3 months of therapy(P<0.05),and the decrease was more significant after 6 months of therapy(P<0.05). The level of serum sPD-1 decreased after 12 months of therapy(P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the absolute number of CD4+ T cells was positively correlated with CXCR5 and Hcy(r=0.192 and 0.401,P<0.05),and there was a negative correlation with sPD-1(r=-0.708,P<0.05). The HIV-1 load was negatively correlated with CXCR5 and Hcy(r=-0.682 and -0.318,P<0.05),and it was positively correlated with sPD-1(r=0.368,P<0.05). Conclusions The dynamic monitoring of the absolute number of CD4+ T cells,HIV-1 load,CXCR5,sPD-1,Hcy and blood lipid changes of AIDS patients during ART can help monitor the progress of HIV infection in time.
