Abstract:Objective To investigate the expression of PTEN in CD4+T of elderly patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease during perioperative period of interventive therapy. Methods A total of 80 patients with senile ischemic encephalopathy who were admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to December 2017 for interventional surgery were selected as the study subjects. They were randomly divided into observation group and control group (n?=?40). All the patients received standard treatments while patients in observation group received additional Atorvastatin. 20?ml peripheral blood was extracted before and after the surgery. CD4+T lymphocytes were separated by immunomagnetic beads. PTEN expression was detected by Western blotting and fluorescence quantitative PCR. Levels of interleukin 10 (IL-10) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) were detected by ELISA prior to and post intervention. Results In observation group, postoperative expression of PTEN were higher than that before surgery (P?0.05). No obvious difference in PTEN prior to and post interventive procedure was witnessed in the control group (P?>?0.05). In the observation group, levels of TNF-α decreased while IL-10 increased after surgery compared with those before surgery (P?0.05). In the control group, there was no significant difference in TNF-α and IL-10 before and after surgery (P?>?0.05). Correlation analysis showed that IL-10 was positively correlated with PTEN expression while TNF-α was negatively correlated with PTEN expression (P?0.05). Conclusions Interventive surgery induced inflammatory response may be down-regulated with oral intake of Atorvastatin in elderly patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease; anti-inflammatory effect of Atorvastatin may be achieved through upregulatioin of PTEN.
