Study on Lymphocyte Subsets of Peripheral Blood in Patients With Nonmyopathic Dermatomyositis Complicated With Pulmonary Interstitial Disease

Recruiting

• Conditions: Dermatomyositis

• Registration Number: NCT06149039
• Lead Sponsor: Yanfeng Hou

Brief Summary

To detect the changes of lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood of non-myopathic dermatomyositis with pulmonary interstitial disease, classical dermatomyositis with pulmonary interstitial disease, rheumatism with non-inflammatory myopathy with pulmonary interstitial disease and healthy adults among the 4 groups, and to detect the related cytokines secreted by lymphocyte subsets Th1,Th2 and Th17. Clinical features, distribution of peripheral lymphocyte subsets ratio and related cytokine content secreted by each lymphocyte subset were analyzed in each group, so as to explore the pathogenesis characteristics of nonmyopathic dermatomyositis complicated with pulmonary interstitial disease, in order to facilitate clinical guidance for diagnosis and treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
T helper 17 cell	2023-04-01 - 2024-06-30	Th17 cells are an important subset of CD4+T lymphocytes, which can express specific transcription factor RORγT and secrete cytokine IL-17.
T helper 1 cell	2023-04-01 - 2024-06-30	Th1 cells are a type of lymphocytes that can produce pro-inflammatory cytokines to support the body's immune response.
T helper 2 cell	2023-04-01 - 2024-06-30	Th2 is a T cell subset that can secrete Th2 type cytokines (such as interleukin IL-4, IL-5, IL-10 and IL-13, etc.), belonging to CD4+T cells.
