Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship between type I hypersensitivity reaction and the mechanism of the viral hepatitis B through the research of interleukin(IL-13 ) and prostaglandin(PGE1) levels in serum of patients with viral hepatitis B, and therefore, to provide new theory for the perfection of the immunological mechanism of hepatitis B, especially acute hepatitis B.Methods:Serum IL-13 and PGE1 levels were measured in 50 patients with viral hepatitis B and 35 normal cases using double antibody sandwich ELISA method. AST and ALT levels were studied using omni automatic biochemistry analyzer and those correlation with IL-13 and PGE1 were observed.Results:①The IL-13 and PGE1 levels of 10 acute hepatitis B were significantly higher than those of the normal cases; ②The IL-13 and PGE1 levels of 35 chronic hepatitis B were also significantly higher than those of the normal cases; ③The levels of IL-13 and PGE1 were significantly positively correlated with serum ALT and AST.Conclusion:IL-13 and PGE1 levels in patients with acute hepatitis B are most remarkably increased, and correlate with the damage of liver.
