摘要目的: 探讨甲壳质酶蛋白40(YKL-40)水平以及CXC趋化因子配体9(CXCL9)水平预测慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)急性加重风险的意义。方法: 2019年10月至2021年10月,选择本院呼吸与危重症医学科150例COPD患者(女性38例,男性112例)和150例正常人作为研究对象。ELISA法测定血清YKL-40、CXCL9水平,计算住院时间。本次住院治疗后1年内追踪COPD急性加重次数。结果: 与对照组相比,在COPD病例中血清YKL-40水平显著升高(22.23±15.35ng/mL vs 63.96±13.66ng/mL,t=24.79,P<0.0001),而CXCL9水平无显著变化(17.92±9.01ng/mL vs 19.29±9.84ng/mL,t=1.26,P=0.210)。血清YKL-40随着COPD病例的GOLD分级升高而升高(1-2级:51.82±12.82ng/mL;3级:63.26±4.59ng/mL;4级:76.86±7.59ng/mL,F=96.92,P<0.0001)。与mMRC评分≤2的COPD患者相比,mMRC评分为2~3或≥3的COPD患者的血清YKL-40水平上调(58.35±15.37ng/mL vs 64.55±10.60ng/mL、68.79±12.66ng/mL,P<0.05)。在COPD患者中,血清YKL-40与FEV1(r=-0.668,P<0.001)和FEV1/FVC(r=-0.167,P=0.041)之间存在显著的负相关,以及血清YKL-40与IL-6(r=0.257,P=0.002)、TNF-α(r=0.522,P<0.001)和CRP(r=0.231,P=0.006)呈正相关。与住院时间≤8d的COPD患者相比,住院时间8~13d和≥13d的COPD患者血清YKL-40水平上调(57.31±15.82ng/mL vs 64.96±9.98ng/mL、69.79±11.58ng/mL,P<0.05)。急性加重次数≤2次患者入院时血清YKL-40水平显著低于急性加重次数>2次患者(58.77±15.66ng/mL vs 69.58±9.08ng/mL,t=5.17,P<0.001)。多元线性回归显示血清YKL-40与FEV1%呈负相关(OR=0.700,95%CI=-0.958,-0.272),和与住院时间≥13d呈正相关(OR=1.125,95%CI=1.007,1.472)。结论: 入院时血清YKL-40水平与COPD患者的严重程度和不良预后呈正相关。
Abstract:Objective: To explore the significance of chitin enzyme protein 40(YKL-40) and CXC chemokine ligand 9(CXCL9) in predicting the acute exacerbation risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: From October 2019 to October 2021, 150 COPD patients (38 females and 112 males) and 150 normal people were selected as the research objects. Serum YKL-40 and CXCL9 levels were measured by ELISA, and the hospitalization time was calculated. Follow up the number of acute exacerbations of COPD within one year after this hospitalization. Results: Compared with the control group, the serum YKL-40 level in COPD patients increased significantly (22.23±15.35 ng/ml vs 63.96±13.66 ng/ml, t=24.79, P<0.0001), while the level of CXCL9 did not change significantly (17.92±9.01 ng/ml vs 19.29±9.84 ng/mL,t=1.26, P=0.210). Serum YKL-40 increased with the increase of GOLD grade in COPD patients (grade 1-2: 51.82 ±12.82 ng/ml; Grade 3: 63.26±4.59 ng/ml; Grade 4: 76.86±7.59 ng/mL, F=96.92, P<0.0001). Compared with COPD patients with mMRC score ≤ 2, the serum YKL-40 level of COPD patients with mMRC score of 2~3 or ≥3 was increased (58.35±15.37 ng/ml vs 64.55±10.60 ng/ml, 68.79±12.66 ng/mL, P<0.05). In COPD patients, serum YKL-40 was negative correlated with FEV1(r=-0.668, P<0.001) and FEV1/FVC(r=-0.167, P=0.041), and serum YKL-40 was positively correlated with IL-6(r=0.257, P=0.002), TNF-α(r=0.522, P<0.001) and CRP(r=0.231, P=0.006). Compared with COPD patients whose hospitalization time was ≤8 d, the serum YKL-40 level of COPD patients whose hospitalization time was 8~13 d and ≥13 d was increased (57.31±15.82 ng/ml vs 64.96±9.98 ng/ml, 69.79±11.58 ng/mL, P<0.05). The level of serum YKL-40 in patients with acute exacerbation ≤2 times was significantly lower than that in patients with acute exacerbation > 2 times (58.77±15.66 ng/ml vs 69.58±9.08 ng/ml, t=5.17, P<0.001). Multiple linear regression showed that serum YKL-40 was negatively correlated with FEV1% (OR=0.700, 95%CI=-0.958, -0.272) and positively correlated with hospitalization time ≥ 13 d (OR=1.125, 95%CI=1.007, 1.472). Conclusion: The level of serum YKL-40 at admission is positively correlated with the severity and poor prognosis of COPD patients.
