Abstract

An immunohistological study was performed on allergic and nonallergic nasal mucosa to examine interleukin-5 (IL-5) expression. Many cells in the superficial portion of lamina propria expressed IL-5 in allergic nasal mucosa, whereas few cells expressed IL-5 in nonallergic mucosa. Furthermore, it was suggested by immunohistological double staining that CD45RO-positive cells, EG2-positive cells and metachromasia-positive cells expressed IL-5 in allergic nasal mucosa.
