Tuyển tập các báo cáo nghiên cứu về y học được đăng trên tạp chí y học General Psychiatry cung cấp cho các bạn kiến thức về ngành y đề tài: Interleukin-12 Peripheral Blood Levels in Asthmatic Children. | ORIGINAL ARTICLE Interleukin-12 Peripheral Blood Levels in Asthmatic Children Ruth Soferman MD Idit Rosenzwig MD and Elizabeth Fireman PhD Interleukin-12 IL-12 was measured in 45 asthmatic children aged 3 to 16 years. The assessments were performed on 20 children during an episode of acute exacerbation and on 25 children during remission. There was no significant difference between the mean IL-12 level during exacerbation pg mL and during remission pg mL p 5 .83 . A positive but insignificant correlation was found between forced expiratory volume in 1 second and IL-12 p 5 .634 . IL-12 levels were significantly lower in children with a positive family history of asthma pg mL compared with those without pg mL p .012 supporting the theory that the gene-environment interactions affect the immune responses. IL-12 peripheral blood levels had no detectable impact on the course of established asthma in the study population.
