Interleukin-13 level accompanying with Helicobacter pylori gastric infection in Kirkuk city
Main Article Content
Abstract
Background: Helicobacter pylori recognized as the most common cause of chronic gastritis and an important pathogenic factor in peptic ulcer, after colonization and stomach mucus layers caused increase in the levels of anti-inflammatory cytokine such as IL-13.
The aims of this study is compare of IL-13 levels among treated patients with H. Pylori gastric infection, patients with H. Pylori gastric infection without treatment and healthy person
Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in Kirkuk city from the September 2020 to March 2020, ELISA test used for interleukin -13 with peptic ulcer diseases (PUD).
Results: Elevated levels of IL-13 reported in patients with acute and chronic H. pylori gastric infection compared to control group (44.74+8.18). A moderate significant in IL-13 level determined in infected patients without treatment, previously treated patients (140.12+45.36 vs 105+22.71). While, there was a high significant difference when these two groups and compared with the control group (44.74+8.18)).
Conclusion: IL-13 levels is highest in patients with H. pylori gastric infection in compare healthy person.
