Diabetes Downregulates Allergen-Induced Airway Inflammation in Mice

Figure 5

Alloxan diabetes reduces serum OVA-specific IgE antibody levels in mice sensitized with ovalbumin. The levels of OVA-specific IgE were measured at 24 h after the last allergen challenge. Blood was collected by cardiac puncture for measurement of OVA-specific IgE by ELISA. Each value indicates the mean ± SEM from six animals per group. versus nondiabetic nonsensitized group. versus nondiabetic sensitized group.
