متن کاملEosinophil cationic protein levels in induced sputum correlate with the severity of bronchial asthma.
Activated eosinophils play an important role in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma. In this study, we analyzed the inflammatory leukocyte population and the concentrations of eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) and albumin in induced sputum from patients with mild to severe asthma (n=36), and assessed the findings in relation to the severity of their asthma. Both the eosinophil numbers and the ...

متن کاملSerum levels of IL-17A increase in Asthma but not in accordance with Serum level of IgE and Asthma Severity
Background and Aims: Recent evidence suggests that T helper (Th) 17 cells are involved in the emergence of asthma. Th17 cells have a key role in inducing inflammation in asthmatic airways thus Interleukin (IL)-17A, the main cytokine of Th17, contributes to airways inflammation. Materials and Methods: We evaluated the level of IL-17A and total immunoglobulin E (IgE) in sera of 100 asthmatic p...
