title: Lack of effect of salmon calcitonin on serum level of soluble form of E-selectin (CD 62E) in patients with atopic bronchial asthma.
abstract: The effect of salmon calcitonin on serum level of soluble form of E-selectin was investigated in patients with atopic bronchial asthma. A slight decrease in serum soluble E-selectin level was shown in patients with mild asthma. There was no effect of calcitonin (100 units, s.c., daily for three days) on serum E-selectin.
