چکیده
Methods This was a comparative cross sectional study. Cases were patients having allergic diseases such as atopic dermatitis (AD) attending the skin clinic of Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (HUSM) and Hospital Raja Perempuan Zainab II (HRPZ II), Malaysia, allergic rhinitis (AR) attending ENT clinic in HUSM and atopic asthma (AA) attending chest clinic and pediatric clinic in HUSM. The patients were chosen from the history taking by the physician. The blood was centrifuged and analyzed for IL 33 using ELISA kits (Human IL 33 Duoset, RnD System). Independent T-test was used to compare the level of serum IL 33 between those with and without history of pruritus.

Background: Allergic diseases have increased during the past decade worldwide. Th2 type lymphocyte response is known to play an important role in the process of allergic inflammation. IL-4, a mediator of type II cytokine response increases IgE synthesis and Interferon gamma, a cytokine of type I response interferes with IL-4 and inhibits IgE production. Selenium is an essential component of glu...

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...
