Abstract

Objective: To estimate the expression level of bitter taste buds TAS2R31 in blood serum in different variations of bronchial asthma (BA).

Methods: 10 practically healthy people and 51 patients having BA (35 having allergic and 16 - non-allergic form). The concentration of the buds in blood serum was defined using immunoenzyme method.

Results: Bitter taste buds' TAS2R31 concentration in blood serum of the practically healthy people didn't have statistically significant difference from the same in patients having BA. However in case of non-allergic course of disease the level of TAS2R31 was 1.7 times higher than in the event of allergic one. Both BA variations were characterized by inverse correlation of the concentration TAS2R31 and external breath functioning indicators reflecting patency of bronchi of the average and little caliber. In case of allergic BA statistical significance was demonstrated by direct correlation between serum concentrations of the TAS2R31 and general immunoglobulin E, cortisol, factor of tumor-a necrosis. Direct correlation between the level of buds with the increased emphasis on basophilia of the peripheral blood, and also content of macrophages, neutrophils and bronchial epithelium in mucus was found. In case of non-allergic BA such clinical phenomena as medicinal and fungi sensitization, myocardial infarction in anamnesis, conducting glucocorticoid therapy defined statistically significant correlation with the level of buds in blood serum.

Conclusions: Findings provide additional facts to prove hypothesis about negative regulation of the membrane buds TAS2R by plasma soluble taste buds. Further issue development should be directed to matching expression of the membrane and free plasma taste buds TAS2R.
