Correlation between Serum NfL, sPD-1, sPD-L1 and the Syndrome of Kidney Deficiency and Damp-heat in Relapsing-remitting Multiple Sclerosis Patients during the Remission Period
To preliminarily investigate the serological characteristics of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) patients with kidney deficiency and damp-heat syndrome during the remission period.
Methods
2
Twenty-seven patients with RRMS during the remission period were retrospectively included as the RRMS group, while 26 healthy volunteers of the same time period were recruited as the healthy group. The patients in the RRMS group were further divided into two subgroups according to whether there was damp-heat or not. The clinical data of all subjects was collected, and the expanded disability status scale (EDSS) was used to evaluate the neurological impairment. Single molecule array (Simoa) technology was used to detect the serum levels of neurofilament light chain (NfL), soluble programmed cell death protein 1 (sPD-1), and soluble programmed death-ligand 1 (sPD-L1). Spearman method was taken to analyze the correlation between serum NfL, sPD-1, and sPD-L1 levels in RRMS patients, and their correlations with course of disease, attack times, and EDSS score.
Results
2
The serum levels of NfL, sPD-1 and sPD-L1 were significantly higher in the RRMS group than in the healthy group (
P
<0.05 or
P
<0.01), and were higher in the kidney deficiency and damp-heat subgroup than in the non-damp-heat syndrome subgroup (
P
<0.05 or
P
<0.01). In patients with RRMS, serum NfL level was positively correlated to sPD-1 and sPD-L1 levels (
P
<0.01), and sPD-1 level was positively correlated to sPD-L1 level (
P
<0.001); serum sPD-1 level was positively correlated to attack times (
P
= 0.030).
Conclusion
2
Serum levels of NfL, sPD-1, and sPD-L1 in patients with RRMS significantly increase during the remission period, and more changes are found if there is kidney deficiency and damp-heat syndrome than non-damp-heat syndrome, suggesting that RRMS patients with kidney deficiency and damp-heat syndrome may be related to more serious immune inflammation and nerve damage.
