Regulatory T cells and regulation of allergic airway disease.
Diseases like asthma have dramatically increased in the last decades. The reasons for the rising prevalence are still controversially discussed. Besides the genetic predisposition a number of different causes are thought to affect the increase of allergies. These include the hygiene hypothesis as well as changes in intestinal microbiota. Allergic airway inflammation is driven by T cells but it ...
متن کاملResponses of IgE, IgG1, and IgG4 to concanavalin A-binding Blomia tropicalis antigens in allergic patients.
Blomia tropicalis (Bt) and Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (Dp) are the prevalent house dust mites in tropical countries and are associated with allergic diseases. Glycosylated antigens are highly immunogenic and involved in different pathologies. We evaluated the presence of IgE, IgG1, and IgG4 to concanavalin A-binding antigens (Bt-Con-A) isolated from Bt-total extract in sera of allergic and ...
متن کاملAnalysis of the allergen expression of Blomia tropicalis and Blomia kulagini (Astigmata: Glycyphagidae) cultures.
Laboratory cultures of the mites Blomia tropicalis (van Bronswijk, Cock & Oshima) and Blomia kulagini (Zakhvatkin) were used to study the population dynamics of the mites and the kinetics of released allergens during the growth cycle. The analysis of extracts obtained after different incubation periods, by means of immunoblotting, and quantification of the major allergen Blo t 5, allowed defini...
متن کاملAllergenic cross-reactivity between Blomia tropicalis and Blomia kulagini (Acari: Echymiopodidae) extracts from optimized mite cultures.
BACKGROUND At present, data about the cross-reactivity of Blomia spp. comes from studies made among different genera of mites, and no results have been published involving different species of the genus Blomia. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to find out the level of cross-reactivity between the two main species of Blomia causing allergy, and its implication in the diagnosis of Blomia sen...
متن کاملPrevalence of Blomia tropicalis in wheezing children in central Taiwan.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In a previous study, we found that wheezing children in rural central Taiwan had a significantly lower average sensitization rate to Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (Der p) than those in Taipei city. We propose that Blomia tropicalis (Blo t) might be the major mite allergen in rural central Taiwan. METHODS Using the preserved sera from our previous study, we retrospectiv...
