[Expression of eosinophils and IL-33 levels in peripheral blood of patients with allergic rhinitis].

: Objective:To investigate the relationship between the count of eosinophils(EOS) in peripheral blood and the serum levels of IL-33, and to discuss the relations among serum levels of IL-33, the count of EOS, visual analog scale (VAS) in different groups.Method:According to different treatments, the patients are divided into three groups: the untreated allergic rhinitis (AR) group (group A), the AR group who had been treated subcutaneous imunotherapy (SCIT) for at least a year (group B) and the AR complicated with allergic asthma group who had been treated subcutaneous imunotherapy (SCIT) for at least a year (gourp C). All subjects were conducted blood cell analysis, and EOS were counted. The serum levels of IL-33 were measured by enzyme linked immune (ELISA), and the obtained date were analysed by GraphPad.Prism 5.0 and SPSS 22.0.AR patients were asked to fill out VAS and were assessed nasal symptoms.Result:The serum levels of IL-33 in the group A were higher than that in other subjects (P 0.05).The serum levels of IL-33 in the group B were higher than that in the control group (P 0.05).The VAS in the group A were higher than that in the group B (P 0.05, r=0.287).Conclusion:SCIT is an effective treatment for AR patients. role on AR, which can alleviate the symptoms of patients, also can reduce the levels of IL-33 and the count of EOS in peripheral blood.
