Abstract: Objective To investigate the relationship between NO2-,LTB4,PGE2,IL-6 and IL-10levels in exhaled breath condensate (EBC) and airway inflammation as well as pulmonary function from COPD patients.Methods Twenty cases of COPD and twenty healthy control were enrolled.ALL subjects detected FEV1/FVC and FEV1% predict.EBC were collected using EcoScreen system.The NO2-levei in EBC was determined by the spectrophotometry.The levels of LTB4,PGE2,IL-6 and IL-10in EBC were measured by enzyme linked immuosorbent assay.Results The levels of NO2-and LTB4 in EBC of COPDgroup were significantly higher than that of the control group [(2.029 ± 1.992) μmol/L,(13.598±3.910)ng/L vs (0.400 ±0.235) μmol/L,(9.742 ±2.348) ng/L,respectively,all P <0.05].There were no signficant difference of PGE2,IL-6 and IL-10 levels in EBC both groups (all P >0.05).There were no correlation between NO2-,LTB4,PGE2,IL-6,IL-10 in EBC with FEV1/FVC and FEV1% predict (P >0.05).Conclusions The COPD patients NO2-and LTB4 levels in EBC are related to airway inflammation and oxidative stress.Whether PGE2,IL-6,IL-10 reflecting airway inflammation need further study.All of cytokines were failed to correlate with Lung functiom.
