ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To research serum level of interleukin-17 (IL-17) associated with the progression of hepatic injury in the chronic patients with hepatitis B.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The serum level of IL-17 was measured by ELISA and the serum levels of IL-6, IL-8 were measured by RIA in patient groups and healthy group, the patient groups including 42 mild patients, 37 moderate patients and 38 severe patients.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>IL-17,IL-6 and IL-8 levels in patient patients were significantly higher than those in healthy people (P < 0.01). There is no significant difference among mild patients and moderate patients. Compared with mild patients and moderate patients,the cytokines lever were significantly higher in severe patients (P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>IL-17 as a new cytokine probably play a multiple role as immune factor and inflammation element in the progression of the chronic hepatitis B disease. Maybe, it can provide a new approach to the therapy of the chronic hepatitis B.</p>
