The expression of the gene of pattern recognition receptor TLR2, proinflammatory cytokine IL-1β, and anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 was analyzed in the peripheral blood of nonagenarians (n=219; mean age 92.1 years, 77 men and 142 women) in comparison with healthy young donors (n=24; mean age 22.5 years, 16 women and 8 men).

[Features of innate immunity indicators in patients with recurrent exudative otitis media].

The article presents the features of the indicators of the innate immune response (, , , , and ) in the exudate of the tympanic cavity in patients with recurrent exudative otitis media (EOM) with normal patency of the auditory tube and its dysfunction. The results of the study demonstrate changes in the indices of the innate immune response characteristic of the inflammatory process in patients with recurrent EOM against the background of dysfunction of the auditory tube in comparison with the group where it is absent. The data obtained can be used to clarify the pathogenesis of otitis media with dysfunction of the auditory tube, to develop new methods of diagnosis, prevention and therapy.
