  •   Objective  To investigate the characteristic manifestation of the peripheral seroimmunological indicators such as cellular immunity and cytokines in drug-induced liver injury (DILI).  Methods  The medical records of 219 patients with DILI collected in Shuguang Hospital and Baoshan Branch from January 2019 to August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, grouped according to the type of drug injury and the degree of injury, and their clinical characteristics, biochemical and peripheral serum immunological characteristics were analyzed. analyze.Twenty-nine cases were selected from the healthy subjects as the normal liver function group, and 42 cases of DILI cases who had undergone cytokine and cellular immune evaluation within 1 week before the acute onset treatment were confirmed as the DILI control group. The t-test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between groups, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between groups; the Fisher test was used to compare the count data between groups.  Results  Among the 219 DILI patients, 122 (56%) were female and 97 (44 %) were male. 89 cases (40%) of injuries were caused by traditional Chinese medicines, proprietary Chinese medicines or health products, and 130 cases (60%) were caused by western medicines such as anti-tuberculosis and anti-tumor. Among them, 82 cases (37%) were classified as hepatocyte injury type, 17 cases (8%) of cholestatic type, and 120 cases (55%) of mixed injury type. The longest incubation period was 180 days, the shortest was 1 day, and the median was 15 days. Fatigue accounted for 49% of the main symptoms. There were statistically significant differences in cytotoxic T lymphocytes (%) and CD4/CD8 ratio between the traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese patent medicine or health product group and the western medicine group (Z=2.55 and 3.08, P=0.011 and 0.002, ). From 219 DILI patients, it was confirmed that 42 patients who had detected peripheral immune indicators were compared with 29 patients with normal liver function physical examination. The statistical analysis showed that IL-6 and IL-10 were statistically significant in the peripheral immune serum distribution of DILI. Significance (Z=3.828 and 2.695, P < 0.001 and 0.007).  Conclusion  Cytotoxic T lymphocytes may play different roles in the pathogenic mechanisms of Chinese herbal medicines, Chinese patent medicine preparations or health products and western medicines; drugs or drug-protein complexes may affect inflammatory and immune pathways and release related cytokines For example, IL-6 and IL-10 are involved in the pathogenesis of DILI.
