Popis: | Background and Aims Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) plays an important role in downregulating T lymphocytes but the mechanisms are still poorly understood. This study aimed to explore the role of PD-1 in CD8+ T lymphocyte dysfunction in hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). Methods Thirty patients with HBV-ACLF and 30 healthy controls (HCs) were recruited. The differences in the numbers and functions of CD8+ T lymphocytes, PD-1 and glucose transporter-1 (Glut1) expression from the peripheral blood of patients with HBV-ACLF and HCs were analyzed. In vitro, the CD8+ T lymphocytes from HCs were cultured (HC group) and the CD8+ T lymphocytes from ACLF patients were cultured with PD-L1-IgG (ACLF+PD-1 group) or IgG (ACLF group). The numbers and functions of CD8+ T lymphocytes, PD-1 expression, glycogen uptake capacity, and Glut1, hexokinase-2 (HK2), and pyruvate kinase (PKM2) expression were analyzed among the HC group, ACLF group and ACLF+ PD-1group. Results The absolute numbers of CD8+ T lymphocytes in the peripheral blood from patients with HBV-ACLF were lower than in the HCs (p |
