Abstract: In order to investigate the mechanism how Yichuanping (a Chinese herb agent) treat asthma and allergy,the expression of IL-4 and IL-5 in the lung tissue of allergic mouse were observed . The result showed that the expression of IL-4 mRNA+ cell and IL-5 mRNA+ cells was lower in Yichnanping group (29.2±7.1,39.1±10.5) than in OVAgroup (46.4±8.9,64.8±13.7). The result indicated that Yichuanping can suppress the expression of IL-4 mRNA+ and IL-5 mRNA+ cells in the lung tissue of allergic mouse,suggesting it may be beneficial for treating asthma.

Key words: Yichuanping, asthma, IL-4, IL-5, allergy
