Embodiment 1

[0023] 1. Sample selection and processing

[0024] Experimental group (DM): Take fresh peripheral blood from patients with dermatomyositis (DM) and centrifuge to separate the plasma, then quickly put it into a cryopreservation tube and store it in a -80°C refrigerator for later use;

[0025] Control group (HC): Fresh peripheral blood was collected from age- and gender-matched healthy people (HC) without immune diseases, and the plasma was separated by centrifugation, then quickly put into cryopreservation tubes, and stored in a -80°C refrigerator for later use.

[0026] 2. Screening and verification of plasma chemokines in patients with diabetes mellitus

[0027] 2.1) Screening: In this experiment, we used the AAH-CYT-G5 protein chip purchased from RayBiotech to analyze the plasma samples of 16 healthy people and 16 patients with DM, and systematically compared and analyzed the plasma samples of HC and DM patients. Expression differences of various chemokines; by figure 1 Th...

Embodiment 2

[0051] A test kit for dermatomyositis condition and prognosis assessment, said test kit comprising:

[0052] a) container;

[0053] b) a specific antibody for the CCL8 protein contained in the container;

[0054] c) a label or an instruction for use, which indicates that the kit is used for evaluating the condition of dermatomyositis and using the kit to predict the prognosis of DM patients in the label or the instruction for use.

[0055] Further, the label or instructions for use indicate: when the plasma CCL8 value of a DM patient is ≥67.3pg / ml, the patient is diagnosed as having a severe condition and poor prognosis; when the plasma CCL8 value of a patient with dermatomyositis is <67.3pg / ml, The patient was diagnosed with a mild condition and a good prognosis.

[0056] Utilize above-mentioned detection kit of the present invention, quantitatively detect 129 routine DM patient's plasma samples (with DM characteristic erythra (Xiangyang rash or Gottron sign) appearing for ...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of biological diagnosis and medicine, and particularly relates to an application of a chemotactic factor CCL8 in preparation of a dermatomyositis condition and prognosis evaluation reagent. According to the invention, a patient plasma specimen for definite diagnosis of dermatomyositis is used as a research object; protein chip detection is carried out; a sample is expanded; a protein chip result is verified by an ELISA method; by combining biochemical indexes and clinical manifestation judgment correlation of patients, it is proved that the blood plasma CCL8level of dermatomyositis patients is remarkably higher than that of healthy people, the expression level of the blood plasma CCL8 is related to the illness state and prognosis of the patients, the blood plasma CCL8 level of dermatomyositis patients effective in treatment is remarkably reduced, and CCL8 can aggravate pulmonary lesions of interstitial pneumonia mice. Therefore, the CCL8 can be usedas a potential biomarker to be applied to a reagent for evaluating the illness state and prognosis of dermatomyositis patients, experimental data and theoretical basis are provided for the applicationof the CCL8 to the illness state and prognosis evaluation of the dermatomyositis patients, and the invention further provides a corresponding kit for evaluating the illness state and prognosis of thedermatomyositis patients.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of biological diagnosis and medicine, in particular to the application of chemokine CCL8 in the preparation of dermatomyositis condition and prognosis evaluation reagents. Background technique [0002] Dermatomyositis (DM) is a type of autoimmune inflammatory myopathy with characteristic skin lesions, non-suppurative inflammatory changes of skeletal muscle and progressive muscle weakness as the main clinical manifestations. The pathogenesis is still unclear. Patients with dermatomyositis are often complicated with interstitial lung disease (ILD), and some patients have rapid progression of lung lesions and poor prognosis. At present, clinical evaluation is mainly based on the patient's clinical manifestations and some laboratory test indicators (such as kinases, C-reactive protein, serum ferritin, and myositis-specific antibody titers, etc.) to comprehensively evaluate the condition. There have been many studies try...
