摘要

目的：研究中性粒细胞明胶酶相关脂质转运蛋白（NGAL）在原发性肾病综合征患儿尿中的水平及其意义。方法：原发性肾病综合征初治患儿34例，经口服泼尼松足量治疗4周尿蛋白未转阴患者归入糖皮质激素耐药型肾病综合征（SRNS）组，尿蛋白转阴患者归入糖皮质激素敏感型肾病综合征（SSNS）组。所有病例在口服泼尼松治疗前、治疗1周、2周、3周、4周时分别收集晨起中段尿，采取ELISA法检测尿液NGAL浓度，同时测得尿中肌酐(Cr)值，采用尿Cr排出量来校正单次尿NGAL水平，比较两组间尿NGAL与Cr比值的表达差异。结果：与SRNS组比较，SSNS组病例尿标本中NGAL/Cr比值在泼尼松治疗3、4周时明显下降（P＜0.05）；与SRNS组比较，SSNS组病例尿标本中β2-MG/Cr比值在泼尼松治疗4周时才开始明显下降。SSNS与SRNS两组病例尿NGAL/Cr与尿蛋白/Cr比值呈正相关(r=0.510，P＜0.01)。ROC曲线下分析结果显示，用药3周后尿NGAL/Cr诊断截点为0.043时，敏感度和特异度分别为100%和79.2%。结论：SRNS患儿尿液中NGAL/Cr比值持续维持于高水平，而SSNS患儿尿液中NGAL/Cr比值在泼尼松治疗后逐渐下降，且其下降时间早于β2MG/Cr比值，提示动态监测尿液中NGAL/Cr比值，有助于早期判断原发性肾病综合征的泼尼松治疗效应。

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) concentration in children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS) and its clinical significance. METHODS: Thirty-four children newly diagnosed with INS received oral prednisone for 4 weeks. Patients whose urinary protein did not become negative were classified as steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) group, while those whose urinary protein did become negative were classified as steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS) group. Morning midstream urine specimens were collected from all patients before use of prednisone and after 1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks of treatment with prednisone. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure the urinary NGAL concentration. Meanwhile, urinary creatinine (Cr) concentration was measured, and urinary NGAL concentration in a single urine collection was adjusted according to the urinary Cr excretion. The two groups were compared in terms of urinary NGAL/Cr ratio. RESULTS: Compared with the SRNS group, the SSNS group had significantly decreased urinary NGAL/Cr ratios after 3 and 4 weeks of prednisone treatment (P<0.05). Compared with the SRNS group, the SSNS group had a significantly decreased urinary β2-MG/Cr ratio after 4 weeks of prednisone treatment (P<0.05). In both groups, urinary NGAL/Cr ratio was positively correlated with urinary protein/Cr ratio (r=0.510, P<0.01). The results of ROC curve analysis showed when diagnostic cut-off point of urinary NGAL/Cr was 0.043 by 3 weeks after treatment, sensitivity and specificity achieved 100% and 79.2% respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Urinary NGAL/Cr ratio remains high in children with SRNS, while this ratio decreases gradually during prednisone treatment in children with SSNS, and it falls ahead of urinary β2-MG/Cr ratio. These results suggest that dynamic monitoring of urinary NGAL/Cr ratio is useful for early judgment of response to prednisone in patients with INS.
