Abstract:
OBJECTIVE The roles of sense neuropeptides in the allergic rhinitis were investigated by observing the symptoms and changes in the level of the neuropeptides in rabbits sensitized after severing of their sphenoidpalatine or sympathetic nerve. METHODS ①SP and CGRP were observed in nasal mucosa of rabbits in four weeks. ② Twenty rabbits were divided into three groups: group C(sphenoidpalatine nerve severed),group D(sympathetic nerve severed) and group E(not operated on).Groups C and D were sensitized three days after the operation. Four rabbits were killed at two and four weeks post-operation in groups C and D. RESULTS ①There was no difference between SP and CGRP levels in four weeks. ②The levels of SP in the nasal mucosa of group C at two and four weeks after sensitization were 16.1?0.77 and 15.02?0.24, respectively. The levels of SP in group D were 34.13?1.45 and 33.23?1.99, respectively. The levels of SP in group E were 20.68?0.01 and 20.56?1.27, respectively. The level of SP in Group C was lower than in Group E. The level of SP in Group D was higher than in Group E. The level of CGRP correlates with the level of SP. CONCLUSION SP and CGRP levels are correlated with the occurrence and development of allergic rhinitis.
