To study some indicators of cytokine status among the patients with pneumonia alveolitis 89 patients have been examined. 60 of those patients suffer from exogenous allergic alveolitis (EAA) and - 60 from idiopathic fibrosing alveolitis (IFA). The average age is 36.4+/-3.0. The patients were devided into three groups: I group - 21 (23.6%) patients with acute disease, II group - 25 (28.1%) patients with subacute disease, III group - 43 (48.3%) patients with chronic disease. The level of IL-1beta and IL-8 in blood serum and bronchoalveolar wash-out (BWO) measured by IFA test system. It is identified that the contents of IL-1beta in blood serum of EAA patients exceeded on 7.2%, the contents of IL-8 exceeded on 14.6% among IFA patients - reliable rise IL-1beta on 35.4% (<0.05) and IL-8 on 31.6% (<0.05). The level of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1beta and IL-8) in peripheric blood corresponded with the level of disease. Along with progressing of disease the contents of cytokine in respiratory space, too high, increased among 21 patients with acute disease, in 13 cases (61.9%) BWO was high in IL-1beta and in 80.8% cases of IL-8. in II group among 25 patients with subacute disease high level of IL-1beta marked in 56.0%, Il-8 in 84% cases; patients in III group high concentration of IL-1beta registered in 51.2%; Il-8 in 81.4% of patients.
