目的:测定变应性鼻炎(allergic rhinitis,AR)患者血中白细胞介素-5(IL-5)、内皮素(ET)及降钙素基因相关肽(CGRP)水平的变化,观察它们在变应性鼻炎中的作用及相互关系,为变应性鼻炎的发病机制、发展及治疗提供依据。方法:选择变应性鼻炎患者36例,慢性鼻-鼻窦炎(chronic rhinosinusitis,CRS)32例,健康对照组30例。分别测定血清IL-5、血浆ET及CGRP水平。结果:IL-5、ET及CGRP含量在变应性鼻炎患者血中较慢性鼻-鼻窦炎患者有明显增高,IL-5、ET及CGRP含量分别为(88.25±33.47)、(77.81±8.26)、(45.32±7.35)ng/L,显著高于慢性鼻-鼻窦炎组[(44.34±16.32)、(72.53±8.34)、(40.07±7.13)ng/L]及健康对照组[(31.24±8.43)、(66.12±7.73)、(35.53±8.02)ng/L]。慢性鼻-鼻窦炎与健康对照组比较亦有明显差异。结论:IL-5、ET及CGRP在变应性鼻炎患者血液中含量较高,它们可能参与了变应性鼻炎的病理生理过程,其变化可能与变应性鼻炎的发生、发展有关。
Objective:To detect expression of interleukin-5,endothelin and calcitonin gene-related peptide in the blood of allergic rhinitis(AR) patients,and observe the relationship between them.Methods:36 cases with AR,32 cases with CRS and 30 healthy individual served as control group.The levels of interleukin-5 and ET and CGRP were measured and analyzed.Results:IL-5 and ET and CGRP levels [(88.25±33.47)、(77.81±8.26)、(45.32±7.35) ng/L]were significantly higher in AR than in CRS [(44.34 ±16.32)、(72.53 ±8.34)、(40.07 ±7.13) ng/L].IL-5 and ET and CGRP levels were significantly higher in CRS than control.Conclusion:It is found that concentrations of IL-5,ET and CGRP rised significantly in AR.IL-5,ET and CGRP may be involved in pathogenesis of AR and be related with the development of AR.
