Objective To investigate the significance of Notch1 and PTEN on bronchial asthma in children.Methods A total of 41 children with bronchial asthma(the study group)and 40 healthy children(the control group)in a hospital in Henan from January 2015 to January 2018 were selected as study objects.Indexes of pulmonary function[forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1)
FEV1/forced vital capacity(FVC)
middle forced expiratory flow(FEF25%-75%)
forced expiratory flow at 50% of FVC(FEF50%)
forced expiratory flow at75% of FVC(FEF75%)and fractional exhaled nitric oxide(FeNO)]
interleukin-6(IL-6)and eosinophils(Eos)were detected;expression levels of Notch1 and PTEN mRNA were detected by qRT-PCR;all data were statistically analyzed.Results FEV1

FEF25%-75%
FEF50%and FEF75%in the study group were(1.38±0.65)L
(60.35±10.42)%
(3.15±1.23)L/s
(1.76±0.79)L/s and(0.78±0.54)L/s
respectively.All were lower than those in the control group
which were(2.47±0.53)L
(79.46±13.26)%
(4.09±1.57)L/s
(2.57±1.03)L/s and(1.25±0.38)L/s
respectively(all P
<

which was higher than that of(10.46±4.25)ppb in the control group(P
<
0.05).Eos and IL-6 in the study group were(0.36±0.13)×109/L and(0.73±0.17)ng/mL
rspectively.Both were higher than those in the control group
which were(0.16±0.11)×109/L and(0.38±0.14)ng/mL
respectively(both P
<
0.05).Level of Notch1 mRNA in the study group was 1.52±0.13
which was significantly higher than that of 0.87±0.09 in the control group(P
<
0.05).Level of PTEN mRNA in the study group was 0.38±0.08
which was significantly lower than that of 1.17±0.19 in the control group(P
<
0.05).The corresponding analysis results showed that expression level of Notch1 mRNA was negatively related with FEV

so as to induce the development and progression of asthma.
