ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To explore the relationship between GATA-3 and IL-12 in patients with allergic rhinitis.@*METHOD@#The expression of GATA-3 was detected by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in 37 patients with allergic rhinitis and 12 control samples. IL-12 was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.@*RESULT@#The relative density ratio of GATA-3 to GAPDH in AR patients was 0.579 +/- 0.102, and in control group was 0.128 +/- 0.021. The concentrations of IL-12 were (53.7 +/- 12.3) ng/g and (121.9 +/- 20.4) ng/g in the two groups respectively. The expression of GATA-3 was negatively correlated to the expression of IL-12 in patients with allergic rhinitis.@*CONCLUSION@#The overexpression of GATA-3 in patients with allergic rhinitis was related to the decrease of IL-12, and to increasing the expression of IL-12 in topical tissue could suppress the expression of GATA-3 and may improve the therapeutic effectiveness of AR.
