Elevated levels of serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) are found in many parasitic diseases. In order to determine the influence of Entamoeba histolytica on IgE levels of clinically symptomatic patients with intestinal amoebiasis, a controlled study was performed. There was no difference between the serum IgE values from Brazilian patients with amoebiasis and those from age-, race- and sex-matched normal Brazilian controls. Based also on our previous similar studies on giardiasis and Chagas' disease, we conclude that protozoan infections do not elevate serum IgE levels.
在许多寄生虫病中都发现血清免疫球蛋白E（IgE）水平升高。为了确定溶组织内阿米巴对有肠道阿米巴病临床症状患者IgE水平的影响，进行了一项对照研究。患有阿米巴病的巴西患者与年龄、种族和性别匹配的巴西正常对照者的血清IgE值没有差异。基于我们之前对贾第虫病和恰加斯病的类似研究，我们得出结论，原生动物感染不会提高血清IgE水平。
