    Summary

    Vitamin E supplementation in bronchial asthma patients boosts T and B lymphocyte levels and enhances granulocyte activity. This immunological effect also reduces serum lysozyme and complement activity.

    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Pulmonology
    • Nutritional Science

    Context:

    • Bronchial asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by airway inflammation.
    • Multimodality therapy is the standard approach for managing asthma.
    • The role of micronutrients like Vitamin E in modulating the immune response in asthma is under investigation.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the immunological effects of Vitamin E supplementation in patients with bronchial asthma receiving multimodality therapy.

    Summary:

    • Vitamin E supplementation in bronchial asthma patients led to increased peripheral blood levels of T lymphocytes, with enhanced functional activity.
    • The study observed an increase in B cell levels, characterized by a higher count of mature B lymphocytes and a decrease in immature B cells.
    • Vitamin E was found to enhance the phagocytic activity of peripheral granulocytes, while serum lysozyme and complement activity declined.

    Impact:

    • These findings suggest Vitamin E may play a beneficial role in modulating the immune system of asthma patients.
    • Further research could explore Vitamin E as an adjunct therapy to improve immunological parameters in bronchial asthma.
    • Understanding these immunological changes could lead to novel therapeutic strategies for asthma management.
