Nageh Shehata Mohamed Ali;
Abstract
Respiratory distress syndrome remains the most common cause of death and handicapping in preterm neonates<2l
A potential role for ET-1 in. neonatal RDS was suggested by elevated plasma ET-1 levels noted in sick preterm infants compared with healthy term and preterm infants<6• 7
Koteclta and Coworkers,( 185
reported increased concentrations of
serum IL-8 in cases of neonatal RDS.
Bronchial asthma is the most common chronic disease of childhood, characterized by exacerbations and remissions<14
I ET-1 has a m1mber of activities that may contribute to the process involved in the pathogenesis of asthma<246l
Marini et al.,( 18 have been suggested an important role for IL-8 in
asthma pathogenesis.
The ann of this study was to evaluate the plasma levels of ET-1 and IL-8 in neonates with RDS, and in infants and children with bronchial asthma and to determine whether ET-1 and/or IL-8 are specific
markers for lung injury or not.
