Effect of Hanghaedan, which has been used for atopic dermatitis(AD), on the cytokine secretory function of monocyte, which was isolated and cultured from peripheral blood of AD patients, were evaluated. The results were as follows:
1. In Ad patients, Hanghaedan exibits statisfically significant inhibitory effect on IL-4(p<0.05).
2. In Ad patients, Hanghaedan exibits statisfically significant inhibitory effect on IL-5(p<0.05).
3. In Ad patients, Hanghaedan exibits statisfically significant inhibitory effect on IFN-γ(p<0.05).
4. Comparing the cytokine concentration change rate of AD patients with that of NAD patients IL-4 of AD patients exhibits statistically significant decrease(p<0.05).
5. In AD group, there is no significant relation between serum IgE and cytokines.
6. In AD group, there is no significant relation between Total eosinophil and IL-5.
