Abstract
The serum levels of interlukine-17A and interlukine-17F were determined using ELISA technique for quantitative determination of IL-17A and IL-17F concentrations in serum. A comparison in Immunological parameters between the two groups (patients and control) showed that there was a significant difference in levels of IL-17 A and IL-17F with p-value (<0.05). The means were: IL-17 A (79.29 pgml),( 18.72 pgml ) and IL-17F(226.4 pgml ),( 29.09 pgml ) respectively. Also the serum levels of p ANCA and c ANCA were determined using Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ELISA technique for quantitative determination of pANCA and c ANCA concentrations in human serum. There was a significant difference in levels of perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (pANCA) and cytoplasmic antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies(c ANCA ) with p-value(<0.05), the means were: pANCA ( 60.93 ngml), (10.31ngml), and c ANCA (35.78 ngml), (8.341ngml) respectively.
