Aim. Determination of the concentration of interleukin-10 (IL-10) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in serum of patients with periodic disease (PD) before and after treatment with colchicin, as well as the identification of correlation between the indicators of these parameters. Materials and methods. We examined 188 patients with PD (89 men, 99 women) aged from 12 to 69 years, as well as 44 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) as a comparison group and 41 healthy people of the control group. Patients were divided into groups: 1 - PD colchicinotherapy patients with seizures without amyloidosis that do not respond to treatment maximum dose of colchicine 2.0 mg/day; 2nd-PD patients without amyloidosis, not responding to treatment 1.5 mg/day colchicine; 3rd - PD patients that responds to certain doses of colchicine (0.5 to 2.0 mg/day); 4th - PD patients without amyloidosis who did not receive treatment; 5-I of the healthy persons of the control group; 6-I - RA patients. The concentration of IL-10 in blood serum was determined by enzyme immunoassay ELISA, and IL-6 - immunochemiluminescent method. For statistical processing the computer program SPSS is used. The results were considered statistically significant at the level of reliability p
