摘要

Adrenal androgens, particularly dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), may have important regulatory effects on the immune system in humans. This study measured the changes in adrenal steroidogenesis in 13 non-infected cirrhosis patients with sterile ascites and 13 patients with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis and the relation with circulating interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels. Comparisons were made with 10 healthy age-matched control subjects. The severity of bacterial peritonitis in liver cirrhosis was significantly associated with enhanced serum IL-6 and cortisol levels, and a decrease in serum DHEA sulfate in relation to serum IL-6 concentrations. Careful, long-term studies on DHEA administered to cirrhosis patients are needed to assess its safety in improving a number of pathological conditions that complicate liver cirrhosis.
