Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an acquired autoimmune hematologic disorder with heterogeneous bleeding manifestations. Many biomarkers such as interleukin-37 (IL-37), vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA), and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGFß1) have a role in immunity, inflammation, and megakaryopoiesis. In the present study, immunoassay of interleukin-37 as well as the gene expression of vascular endothelial growth factor A and transforming growth factor-β1 were done in 60 primary ITP patients, 60 thrombocytopenia patients, and 60 healthy volunteers. Increased IL-37 level and down regulation of VEGFA and TGFß1gene expression were detected in primary ITP patients when compared with other groups. A negative correlation was observed between IL-37 and platelet count. However, a positive correlation was observed between VEGFA and TGFß1 levels and platelet count. Current results suggested that interleukin-37, vascular endothelial growth factor A, and transforming growth factor-β may be promising indicators in the diagnosis of ITP and detection of disease severity with inexpensive and cost-effectiveness compared to the benefits.
