Abstract:
[Objective] To explore the affecting of moxibustion on allergic asthma immune function and mechanism by observing the serum level of immunoglobulin E (IgE),interleukin-4(IL-4),interleukin-13(IL-13).[Methods] 30 cases of allergic asthma were distributed randomly and respectively into groups A,B and C,and another 10 healthy subjects were chosen as controls.Serum IgE,IL-4,IL-13 were measured by ELISA.[Result] The efficiency of groups A,B,C were 80%、90% and 40% respectively.Serum IgE and IL-4,IL-13 levels were significantly lower in groups A and B by the treatment(P0.05).There was significant difference between the three groups and controls (P
