Basophil Reactivity as Biomarker in Immediate Drug Hypersensitivity Reactions—Potential and Limitations
Immediate drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) resemble typical immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated symptoms. Clinical manifestations range from local skin reactions, gastrointestinal and/or respiratory symptoms to severe systemic involvement with potential fatal outcome. Depending on the substance group of the eliciting drug the correct diagnosis is a major challenge. Skin testing and in vitro d...
متن کاملImmediate hypersensitivity to quinolones: moxifloxacin cross-reactivity.
INTRODUCTION Immediate hypersensitivity reactions to quinolones are rare. Moxifloxacin is an quinolone chemically different from other fluoroquinolones. We report 6 patients diagnosed with hypersensitivity to different fluoroquinolones in whom the response to moxifloxacin and cross-reactivity with other quinolones was studied. MATERIAL-METHODS An allergenic study was made by prick and intrade...
متن کاملIn Vitro Diagnosis of Immediate Drug Hypersensitivity Anno 2017: Potentials and Limitations
BACKGROUND For most physicians, quantification of drug-specific immunoglobulin E (drug-sIgE) antibodies constitutes the primary in vitro measure to document immediate drug hypersensitivity reactions (IDHR). Unfortunately, this is often insufficient to correctly identify patients with IgE-mediated IDHR and impossible for non-IgE-mediated IDHR that result from alternative routes of basophil and m...
متن کاملCutaneous Basophil Hypersensitivity
Delayed onset erythematous skin reactions elicited in guinea pigs early in the course of sensitization with azobenzenearsonate-protein conjugates or with protein antigens in incomplete Freund's adjuvant or in saline were found to have a characteristic morphology which sets them apart from delayed hypersensitivity and the classic antibody mediated reactions. The principle feature was massive der...
متن کاملComparison of basophil activation test and lymphocyte transformation test as diagnostic assays for drug hypersensitivity
Lymphocyte transformation test (LTT) is a widely used assay to detect drug-specific T cell reaction, but its relatively low sensitivity renders risk for pseudo-negativity. Basophil activation test (BAT) is an emerging assay initially used to diagnose food allergy, but its application to drug hypersensitivity as been reported anecdotally. Although a promising assay, the clinical settings or a pa...
