Abstract:
Objective:To detect the expression of IL-17A、IL-10 and IFN-? in patients wth different forms of inflammatory bowel disease(IBD) during clinical remission phase and investigate their role in the onset and treatment of IBD.Methods:Tissue samples were obtained from patients with ulcerative colitis(UC,n=46),Crohn's disease(CD,n=12),and normal colorectal tissues(n=20).IL-17A expression was evaluated by a standard immunohistochemical procedure.Serum IL-17A、 IL-10 and IFN-? levels were determined by ELISA.Results:IL-17A expression was not detected in samples from normal colonic mucosa but was present in the mucosa of IBD.The level of IL-17A significantly increased in IBD patients while it was not detected in the sera of normal individuals.The level of IL-10 in patients with Crohn's disease was significantly higher than that in patients with ulcerative colitis and control group(P
