ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the influence of polysaccharide and nucleoside extract from bacille Calmett-Gueiin (PNCG) on the frequency of peripheral cutaneous lymphocyte-associated antigen positive (CLA~+) T lymphocyte derived lymphokines in atopic dermatitis (AD) and to explore their associations with the disease severity. Methods A randomized,double blind and placebo cross-over control method was used to treat the AD patients. Before and after the treatment,flow cytometry was used to measure the frequencies of IL-4,IL-5, IFN-γ,TNFα positive CLA~+T cells. Disease severity was evaluated by atopic dermatitis area and severity index score (ADASIS). Results After the PNCG treatment,the frequency of IL-5~+ CLA~+T cell decreased significantly,while IFN-γ increased,compared with the placebo con-trol group. PNCG could improve the ADASIS. Conclusion PNCG may treat AD through restoring the immune balance of CLA~+T cells.
