Abstract

【Objective】 To explore the changement of serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-4(IL-4),interleukin-6(IL-6) with allergic purpura and allergic purpura nephritis during the course of the disease. 【Methods】 The serum levels of TNF-α,IL-4,IL-6 were measured with ELISA. 【Results】 At the acute stage, the lever of serum TNF-α, IL-6, IL-4 in HSP group were significantly higher than those in normal control group (P<0.01), in convalescent stage, the lever of serum TNF-α, IL-4, IL -6 were obviously decreased, and the lever of serum TNF-α,IL-4 ,IL-6 were higher in HSPN than in HSP. 【Conclusion】 Cytokine disorder existed in the children with HSP,the TNF-α, IL-4, IL-6 may play important roles in patho-genesis of HSP and HSPN.
