Cytokine/chemokine production in asthmatic and non‐asthmatic patients with bronchitis. Increased levels of interleukin‐1 beta (IL‐1β), tumour necrosis factor‐alpha (TNF‐α) and interleukins 4 and 5 (IL‐4 and IL‐5) were observed. They remained similar in asthmatic and non‐asthmatic patients (A, B, C, D). Monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1 (MCP‐1) in asthmatic patients was found increased. Regulated on activation normal T cell expressed and secreted factor (RANTES) was found similar in patients compared to control values (E, F). Asthmatic (n = 6); non‐asthmatic (n = 20); control (n = 10). Data were analysed using a nonparametric ANOVA (Kruskal–Wallis test) and Dunn's multiple comparison test. Values were expressed as mean ± standard deviation.
