Abstract
Allergic rhinitis is one of the common chronic inflammatory diseases of the nasal mucosa. In order to investigate the effect of zinc on ovalbumin induced allergic rhinitis in BALB/C male mice based on NF-KB signaling pathway, thirty BALB/C male mice are randomly divided into three groups: control group, ovalbumin induced allergic rhinitis asthma group and zinc intervention group. The experimental results show that Zinc supplementation in allergic asthma mice with allergic rhinitis correct the immune response of TH2 cells by inhibiting THE NF-KB signaling pathway, reduce the infiltration of inflammatory cells into lung nasal tissue, and reduce airway co-hyperreactivity to improve the clinical symptoms of asthma and play an immune protective role.
