Introduction: An increase in the number of asthma patients which has recently been observed depends on their place of residence and their occupation. This suggests that both external factors and genetic predispositions affect the development of the disease. The contact with bacterial lypopolysaccharide (LPS) may suppress the development of asthma among rural inhabitants. The mechanism of LPS effect most probably consists in the activation of macrophages and granulocytes by TLR4 and CD14 receptors for the production of cytokines, which affect Th1/Th2 balance. The objective of the study was the evaluation of CD14 and TLR4 expression on mononuclear cells and the analysis of Th1/Th2 balance in peripheral blood among asthma patients. Material an...
