OBJECTIVE: To study the expression of IL-33 and its receptor ST2 in the nasal mucosa of allergic rhinitis (AR) patients, and to explore the role of IL-33 and ST2 in the pathogenesis of AR. METHOD: Collected 24 cases of nasal septum deviation of patients with AR as AR group,and selected 20 patients with simple septum deviation as normal control. In addition, collected 20 cases diagnosed with AR, who accepted standardized specific immunotherapy(SIT). RESULT: Immunohistochemical results found more positively stained cells of IL-33 and ST2 in AR patients than normal control group, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05), Western-Blot detected that IL-33 and ST2 protein level were significantly higher in AR than the normal control group (P < 0.01), PCR detected that the expression of IL-33mRNA and ST2mRNA were increased in AR group compared with the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). While, the serum IL-33 levels in AR were decreased before treatment (72.37 ± 16.18) ng/L than after six months of SIT (47.35 ± 10.59) ng/L,and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION IL-33 and its receptor ST2 were highly expressed in the nasal mucosa of patients with AR, suggesting that IL-33/ST2 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of allergic rhinitis. Serum levels of IL-33 were significantly decreased after SIT treatment, suggesting that IL-33 may have a positive correlation with the severity of AR.

AIM: To analyze and compare the changes of pressure phase plane(PPP) derived τ and K on isolated rat heart during ischemia/reperfusion, and to explore the value of PPP derived τ and K for evaluation of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. METHODS: LVEDP, -d(p/dt)_(max), τ and K were measured and calculated during ischemia/reperfusion in Sprague-Dawley rat hearts. Meanwhile, the level of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the coronary effluent was measured, and the ultrastructure changes in myocardium were observed under electron microscope. RESULTS: Compared with control group, τ increased and K reduced significantly in each ischemic group in a time dependent manner (P<0.05). With prolonged ischemia, τ was even higher and K was even lower (P<0.05). Compared with control group, except ischemia 15 min, LDH in other groups increased significantly at 10 min and 20 min after reperfusion (P<0.05). Compared with ischemia 30 min, LDH of ischemia 45 min and ischemia 60 min were even higher at 10 min and 20 min after reperfusion (P<0.05). With prolonged ischemia, the abnormal changes of the myocardial ultrastructure were observed. CONCLUSION: PPP derived τ and K may be promising indexes for quantitative assessment of left ventricular diastolic function on isolated) rat heart during ischemia/reperfusion, and indication of the severity of ischemia/reperfusion injury.
