Objectives: To investigate the expression of IL-25,IL-33 and EOS in children with allergic rhinitis (AR).
Methods: Ninety-four AR children receiving immunotherapy and 23 healthy people were concluded in the study. The serum levels of IL-25 and IL-33 were detected by Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), and a count of EOS were measured.
Results: The serum levels of IL-25 and IL-33 in the mild group were higher than control group (<0.05). The count of EOS showed no difference between the mild group and the control group (>0.05). The serum levels of IL-25 and IL-33 in the severe group were higher than those in mild group (<0.05). The serum levels of IL-25 and IL-33 in the severe group were higher than control group (<0.05). The count of EOS in the severe group were higher than those in mild group (<0.05). The count of EOS in the severe group were higher than those in control group (<0.05). Spearman test showed the serum levels of IL-25 in the children with AR patients have positive correlation with the serum levels of IL-33 (<0.05, =0.238).
Conclusions: Expression of IL-25 levels, IL-33 levels and the count of EOS in patients with AR are enhanced, which shows that IL-25, IL-33 and the count of EOS are involved in the AR. If we can understand the mechanism of them, it will profound implications for treatment.

: In the world, approximately 1% of the population suffers from chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), burdening patients' quality of life and challenging clinicians in terms of treatment. Recent scientific evidence has unveiled the potential role of a family of molecules known as "alarmins" in the pathogenesis of CSU. : Papers focusing on the potential pathogenetic role of alarmins in CSU with diagnostic (as biomarkers) and therapeutic implications, in English and published in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, as well as clinical studies registered in ClinicalTrials.

Objective: To investigate the effect of baijinpingchuan (, BJPC) on the asthma rat model and identify differential metabolites and disturbed metabolic pathways.
Methods: The rats were categorized into six groups: control, dexamethasone (DEX), ovalbumin (OVA), and low-, median-, and high-dose BJPC. The rats, except for the control group, were initially treated with OVA to develop the asthma model, which was then activated using DEX, OVA, and low-, median-, and high-dose BJPC.

Alarmin cytokines including IL-25, IL-33, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) function as danger signals to trigger host immunity in response to tissue injury caused by pathogenic factors such as parasitic infections. Parasitic diseases also provide an excellent context to study their functions and mechanisms. Numerous studies have indicated that alarmin cytokine released by non-immune cells such as epithelial and stromal cells induce the hosts to initiate a type 2 immunity that drives parasite expulsion but also host pathology such as tissue injury and fibrosis.
