Prevalence of specific immunoglobulin E and G against Aspergillus fumigatus in patients with asthma
Background and Purpose: Aspergillus fumigatus as a ubiquitous fungus can be found in the respiratory tract of the asthmatic and healthy people. The inhalation of Aspergillus spores leads to an immune response in individuals with asthma and results in the aggravation of the clinical symptoms. The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of specific immunoglobulin E and G (IgE and IgG) a...
متن کاملTargeted therapy in severe asthma today: focus on immunoglobulin E
Asthma is a complex chronic inflammatory disease of multifactorial etiology. International guidelines increasingly recognize that a standard "one size fits all" approach is no longer an effective approach to achieve optimal treatment outcomes, and a number of disease phenotypes have been proposed for asthma, which has the potential to guide treatment decisions. Among the many asthma phenotypes,...
متن کاملTreatment of childhood asthma with anti-immunoglobulin E antibody (omalizumab).
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE There seems to be a strong causal relationship between allergy and the origins of asthma. Susceptibility to both is determined by a combination of genetics and environment acting through a complex network of cytokines. Nearly 90% of affected children have positive skin tests indicating the presence of specific immunoglobulin E (IgE), with sensitivity to house dust mite,...
متن کاملSerum immunoglobulin E and immunoglobulin G reactivity to Agaricus bisporus proteins in mushroom cultivation workers
Background and Purpose: Although molds are regarded as the main fungal allergen sources, evidence indicates that spores of Basidiomycota including Agaricus bisporus (A. bisporus) can be also found at high concentrations in the environment and may cause as many respiratory allergies as molds. The aim of the present study was to evaluate specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) and immunoglobulin G (IgG) ...
متن کاملA case of follicular bronchiolitis associated with asthma, eosinophilia, and increased immunoglobulin E.
A 49-year-old woman, who had been diagnosed with asthma, showed a bilateral diffuse pattern of small centrilobular nodules on CT. Laboratory data revealed peripheral eosinophilia and a marked increase in total serum IgE levels. The nodules detected on CT were initially considered to be associated with bronchiolar infiltration of eosinophils. Pathological findings from thoracoscopy revealed infi...
