Comparative analysis of sublingual and subcutaneous allergen-specific immunotherapy in children with bronchial asthma sensitized to pollen allergens: effect on cytokine profile and immune response

Zdorovʹe Rebenka
Background. Allergen-specific immunotherapy is currently the only disease-modifying treatment for allergic disea­ses. Among its delivery methods, sublingual (SLIT) and subcutaneous (SCIT) immunotherapy are commonly used.

A Straightforward Algorithm for Diagnosing Hymenoptera Venom Allergy and Identifying the Relevant Venom for Immunotherapy

Allergy, EarlyView.
Conventional tests, such as specific IgE (sIgE) or intradermal testing (IDT), are usually sufficient. Combining both tests increases sensitivity, while additional tests, like the basophil activation test (BAT), provide no further benefit for the majority of patients.

Sublingual immunotherapy for the treatment of allergies

South African Family Practice, 2016
The treatment of allergies often involves pharmacological therapy and recommendations by healthcare workers that the allergen should be avoided. Allergen-specific immunotherapy has emerged as an alternative to effectively decrease the immunoglobulin (Ig)

Decreased Severity of Oral Immunotherapy Induced Gastrointestinal Eosinophilic Reactions Following Revisions in Milk‐Treatment Protocol

Allergy, EarlyView.
A revised milk OIT protocol with lower daily allergen load and slower dose escalation reduced the severity and delayed onset of OIT‐induced gastrointestinal eosinophilic reactions (OITIGER). Elevated baseline absolute eosinophil count (AEC > 600/μL) was a consistent independent risk factor for OITIGER, while older age was protective.

Oral Immunotherapy Induces Shift in lncRNA Expression Modulating Allergen‐Specific Immune Responses

Allergy, EarlyView.
We used PBMC transcriptome from 50 hen's egg‐allergic patients to study the role of lncRNA in OIT. Positive correlation was found between 17 lncRNAs and the IL‐4/IL‐13 pathway in vivo, and the expression of the selected lncRNA aligned with CXCL8 upon PBMC egg‐restimulation.

Allergen Immunotherapy in Asthma: Current Status and Future Perspectives

Allergology International, 2010
Allergen immunotherapy targets Th2 cells activated by specific allergens, which constitutes the basis of allergic disease. Therefore, this approach has therapeutic potential for a variety of allergic diseases, including asthma, and may modify their ...
