Abstract
The present study was conducted from November 2014 to March 2015. Seventy four patients aged from six to forty five years old were examined. The present study aims to determine white blood cell counts, antibody response and some complement components levels changes in the serum of patients with scabies. Immunological reaction to scabies evaluated were including leucocyte count, which was significantly increased, and Immunologic reactions mediated by immunoglobulins including IgG, IgM, IgA and IgE. All of them were significantly increased except IgA. Concerning complement protein levels (C3 and C4) non-significant changes were seen in their levels. None of these reactions have been shown to eliminate all mites from the skin surface in patients who followed by the clinic reports, but locally these reactions may prevent the epidemic multiplication of scabies' organisms on the skin surface.
