Abstract:
Objective To explore the role of chemokine CCL18 in the occurrence and development of children allergic diseases. Methods The serum levels of CCL18 in 87 children cases of allergic asthma,64 cases of allergic rhinitis,46 cases of allergic con-junctivitis and contemporaneous 50 health students with physical examination as the control group were measured by ELISA and re-measured after 6-month treatment.The detection results were statistically analyzed with combining the clinical related detection data by adopting SPSS18.0 statistical software and t-test.Results The serum levels of CCL18 in the children allergic asthma,allergic rhinitis and allergic conjunctivitis groups were remarkably higher than those in the control group with statistical differences(P <0.05);the levels of CCL18 in the severe groups were remarkably higher than those in the mild and moderate groups with statistical difference(P <0.05);the levels of CCL18 after 6-month treatment in 3 groups were significantly decreased compared with before treatment with statistical difference(P <0.05).Conclusion The serum level of CCL18 is significantly associated with the severity of illness and significantly decreased after treatment,which indicating that the CCL18 detection has the important value in the diag-nosis,severity evaluation and treatment effect monitoring of children allergic diseases.
