The current study was designed to asses some immunological parameters that may be related with scabies disease Blood samples were collected from 60 patients (30 first infestation,30 re-infestation) with ordinary scabies and 30 healthy individuals as a control group to determine the total and differential WBCs count , in addition sera levels of some immunological parameters including, C3,IgE and Indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase (IDO). The results revealed that a significant increase (P?0.05) in total and differential WBCs count of patients groups compared with healthy group , also the levels of immunoglobulin IgE and IDO showed a significant increase (P?0.05) in patients groups in comparison with healthy group . Concerning with complement components (C3) its levels observed a significant differences (P?0.05) between patients groups(first infestation and re infestation) , also between patients and healthy group .
