Abstract: Objective To study the effect of CA/PEI membrane on cytokines, immunoglubin and complements along with bilirubin clearance in chronic liver diseases. Methods We used CA/PEI membrane to adsorb jaundice sera from 30 cases for 2 hours. Serum IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α and TGF-β1 were measured by ELISA before and after the adsorption. IgA, IgM, IgG, C3 and C4 were detected by immune scatter turbidimetry. Results After the adsorption, serum IL-6, TNF-α and TGF-β1 decreased (P<0.05), and IL-10, immunoglobulin and complements remained unchanged. Conclusion CA/PEI membrane may affect several cytokines relating to the progress of liver diseases in company with bilirubin clearance.
