Abstract:
Objective To explore the mechanism of blood-stage treatment in patients with psoriasis vulgaris through studying the level change of IFN-?, IL-4, IL-10 and IL-17 in patients with blood-stage treatment during activity and quiescence period separately. Methods 20 patients with psoriasis vulgaris in active stage(blood heat syndrome)and 20 patients with psoriasis vulgaris in resting stage(blood stasis syndrome) were recruitedto observe the treatment effects by the PASI score,and to observe thechange of IFN-?, IL-4, IL-10, IL-17 before and after treatment in the serum by ELISA. Results The PASI scores of two groups were both significantly decreased after treatment (blood heat syndrome group t=6.685, P<0.01;blood stasis syndrome group t=4.959, P<0.01). The levels of cytokines were significantly different between patients in the periods of activity and quiescence. Onvarying degrees, the levels of cytokines of two groups were improved after treatment. The levels of cytokines IFN-?, IL-17 in blood heat group significantly decreased(t=3.024, P<0.01;t=2.543, P<0.05). The levels of cytokines IL-17 drop but the levels of cytokines IL-4 raised in blood stasis group,that were significantly differentwith the levels before treatment(t=2.417, P<0.05; t=2.547, P<0.05). Conclusion The levels of INF-?, IL-4, IL-10 and IL-17 could be effectively modulated with blood-stage treatment in treating psoriasis vulgaris.
