摘　　要：目的探讨急性髓系白血病(AML)患者中NK和NKT细胞的数量和功能及其与临床生物学特征和预后的关系。方法回顾性收集2018年1月至2020年1月山西医科大学第二医院血液科血液病研究所初诊的172例成年AML患者,同期体检中心健康人105例作为做对照,采用流式细胞术检测外周血NK和NKT细胞的百分比,并分析其与AML患者临床生物学特征、预后的关系,荧光定量PCR和Western Blot检测NK和NKT细胞激活受体DNAM-1和抑制受体TIGIT、TACTILE的mRNA和相应分子的表达,分析其与AML患者病理特征的关系。结果和健康者相比,AML患者的NK和NKT细胞中位百分比较低8.77%vs 10.93%(P=0.006),0.55%vs 1.15%(P=0.003);NK细胞百分比与骨髓中原始细胞比例成负相关性(r=-0.313,P=0.044);NK和NKT细胞的中位百分比越大其危险度分层越低(P<0.05);NKT细胞的百分比较高的AML患者有较好的OS和DFS(P<0.05);NK细胞的百分比与AML患者的OS和DFS的关系无显著统计学意义(P>0.05);NK和NKT细胞的激活受体DNAM-1mRNA和蛋白表达较低(P<0.05),而抑制受体TIGIT和TACTILE的mRNA和蛋白表达较高(P<0.05);诱导治疗缓解、部分缓解和难治患者NK和NKT细胞中位百分比分别为10.32%、11.04%与10.56%,0.37%、0.41%和0.34%,差别无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论AML患者的NK和NKT细胞百分比降低具有特异性临床特点和预后相关,同时其激活受体DNAM-1表达较低而抑制受体TIGIT、TACTILE的表达较高,这可能限制其细胞毒性并促进了AML的免疫逃逸;NK和NKT细胞的百分比可以作为预后评价,甚至有望成为治疗AML的潜在靶标。ObjectiveTo investigate the number and function of natural killer (NK) and natural killer T (NKT) cells in AML patients and to analyze their relationship with clinical biological characteristics and prognosis.MethodsOne hundred and seventy-two adult AML patients initially diagnosed at the Hematology Department and Hematology Research Institute of the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from January 2018 to January 2020 were collected retrospectively, and 105 healthy individuals from the physical examination center were included as controls. The percentage of NK and NKT cells in peripheral blood was detected by flow cytometry, and the relationship between NK and NKT cells and clinical biological characteristics and prognosis of AML patients was analyzed. Fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western Blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of the activating NK and NKT cell receptor DNAM-1 and their inhibitory receptors TIGIT and TACTILE. The relationship between the expression of these molecules and the pathological characteristics of AML patients was analyzed.ResultsCompared with healthy people, the median percentage of NK and NKT cells in AML patients was lower (8.77% vs 10.93%, P=0.006;0.55% vs 1.15%, P=0.003). The percentage of NK cells was negatively correlated with the proportion of blasts in bone marrow (r=-0.313, P=0.044). The higher the median percentage of NK and NKT cells, the lower the risk grade (P<0.05). AML patients with a higher percentage of NKT cells had better overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) (P<0.05). The relationship between the percentage of NK cells and OS and DFS in AML patients was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The mRNA and protein expression of the activating receptor DNAM-1 in NK and NKT cells was higher (P<0.05). However, the mRNA and protein expression of the inhibitory receptors TIGIT and TACTILE receptor was low (P<0.05). The median percentages of NK and NKT cells in patients with induced remission, partial remission, and refractori
