对发作期哮喘和慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)病人及正常人各20例,检测外周血淋巴细胞(PBLCs)培养上清液中白细胞介素-4(IL-4)含量、γ-干扰素(IFN-γ)活性及其血清IgE总浓度。结果表明,发作期哮喘组IL-4和IgE均明显高于COPD组及正常对照组(P<0.001)。IL-4和IFN-γ及IFN-γ与IgE均呈负相关(r=-0.48,-0.75;P<0.05,0.001)。而COPD组与正常对照组之间的IL-4和IgE无显著差异(P>0.05)。3组之间IFN-γ活性亦无差异(P>0.05)。提示IL-4和IFN-γ之间的相互平衡是哮喘发病过程中血清IgE浓度调节的一种重要因素。
Twenty patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and 20 normal controls were included in this study. The content of interleukin-4 (IL-4) in supernatant of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLCs) (IFN-γ) activity and serum IgE total concentration. The results showed that the levels of IL-4 and IgE in asthma group were significantly higher than those in COPD group and normal control group (P <0.001). IL-4 and IFN-γ and IFN-γ and IgE were negatively correlated (r = -0.48, -0.75; P <0.05, 0.001). There was no significant difference in IL-4 and IgE between COPD group and normal control group (P> 0.05). There was no difference in IFN-γactivity among the three groups (P> 0.05). It is suggested that the balance between IL-4 and IFN-γ is an important factor in the regulation of serum IgE concentration during asthma pathogenesis.
