The aim of the study was to determine the effect of mometasone, nortriptyline, and a combination of these agents on the proportion of Th (CD4+) lymphocyte isolated from the blood of patients with allergic rhinitis that contained the proinflammatory cytokines IFN-γ, IL-4, and IL-17A. Methods. The study included six subjects with allergic rhinitis aged 18–19 years. Blood mononuclear cells were isolated by centrifugation and incubated in the presence of mometasone, nortriptyline, or a combination of these agents. Recombinant proteins were then added to stimulate immune responses of types 1, 2, or 17. After 3 days of culture, the percentage of CD4+ cells containing IL-4, IL-17A, and IFN-γ was determined by flow cytometry. Results. According to data obtained, mometasone effectively suppresses the intracellular expression of proinflammatory cytokines IFN-γ, IL-4, and IL-17A induced by immune responses of types 1, 2, and 17. Nortriptyline, acting on the same cells under stimulated type 1, type 2 or type 17 of immune responses, reduces the proportion of cells expressing IL-4 and IL-17A, and IFN-γ (the latter only under stimulated type 17 of immune response). The combination of mometasone and nortriptyline further suppresses the expression of IL-4 by CD4+ cells in all the studied immune responses, IL-17A – under activation types 2 and 17 of immune response, and IFN-γ – in type 1, compared to mometasone alone. Conclusion. The results of the study demonstrate the ability of nortriptyline to enhance the effect of glucocorticosteroids in suppressing the immune response of CD4+ lymphocytes in patients with allergic rhinitis.
