Abstract: Objective: To investigate the efficacy and mechanism of nebulized interferon gamma (IFN-r) in the prevention and treatment of allergic rhinitis. Methods: Ovalbumirl (OVA) absorbed to aluminum hydroxide was used to construct the allergic rhinitis model (group C), and nebulized IFN-r 12ug was inhaled once daily on day 23 to day 30. The nasal lavage fluid was collected on day 31, and the cellular constituents, levels of IL-4, IL-5 and IgE were determined. The normal control group (group A), the allergic rhinitic model group (group B) and beclomethasone dipropionate group (group D) consisted of five mice each. Results: Decrease of eosinophils (0.005±0.003)×104/ml was seen in nasal lavage fluid of group C as compared with group B[(0.223±0.068)×104/ml,(P<0.01)], and the levels of IL-4(7.8±3.2pg/mL) and IL-5(12.5±4.6pg/mL) decreased significantly in comparison with group B(P<0.01). The serum levels of total IgE (38.5±9.6ug/ml) and ovalbuminspecific IgE(19.6±5.2U/mL )decreased significantly in comparison with those of group B(P<0.01). Conclusion: IFN-r can inhibit the composition of IL-4 and IL-5, and inhibit the airway inflammation with eosinophilic infiltration and the serum levels of total IgE and ovalbumin specific IgE, and so it is helpful in prevention and treatment of allergic rhinitis.

[12] To investigate the relationship between nasal foreign bodies and allergic rhinitis in children. MethodsThis single-center study retrospectively evaluated the clinical data, treatment methods used, and complications reported for 161 pediatric patients with nasal foreign bodies who were treated between January 2017 and June 2018. ResultsA total of 161 patients were reviewed(91 boys and 70 girls). Among them, the age of high hair was 3-5 years old, and accounted for 81.4% of all the patients. Of these, 137(85.1%)children had nasal itching, rubbing nose, nose-picking, sneezing, epistaxis, nasal congestion, nasal hemorrhage, and other symptoms; 112 cases(69.6%)tested positive for sIgE(specific Immunoglobulin E)and were diagnosed with allergic rhinitis. The prevalence of allergic rhinitis in children with nasal foreign bodies was 69.6%, significantly higher than that reported for the general population(7.83%-20.42%; P<0.001). ConclusionIn children, nasal foreign bodies are closely associated with allergic rhinitis. Children with nasal foreign bodies should be particularly monitored for the development of allergic rhinitis. When allergic rhinitis is suspected, it should be promptly diagnosed and optimal treatment should be administered..

[13] The occurrence and development of allergic rhinitis involves a variety of signal transduction pathways. Studying signal transduction pathways can promote the progress of pathogenesis research, suggesting that we can block the conduction of pathways in a pathway to achieve therapeutic effects. Open up new prospects for designing and developing more effective new drug treatments.The common signaling pathways in allergic rhinitis are reviewed in this article to provide a reference for the treatment of allergic rhinitis..
