Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is a neurological condition caused by the presence of cysts of Taenia solium in the brain, which manifests with a range of clinical symptoms. The severity of NCC and its prognosis following anti-helminth drug (AHD) treatment are closely linked to peripheral and local inflammation. The study aimed to analyse the efficiency of cysticidal therapy impacted by the host's immune response in NCC patients. A total of 104 patients were screened in this study, and blood samples were collected from 30 patients. The follow-up samples within 3 to 6 months of treatment were collected. Patients were categorised as Responder (R) and Non-Responder (NR). Cytokines IL-6, IL-10, IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha were estimated using ELISA kits in PBMC cells. T0 is the time point before the AHD treatment begins, and T1 is between 3 to 6 months after the treatment starts. The responder patients showed significantly lower IL-10 and IL-6 levels in the supernatants at T0 as compared to T1, while in non-responder patients, IL-10 and IL-6 levels were higher at T0 as compared to T1. The IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha levels were found to be higher in the supernatants at T0 as compared to T1 in both the responder and non-responder patients. These observations imply that these cytokines might have an impact on the efficacy of AHD treatment in NCC patients.
