Biphasic Effects on Allergen-Specific Type 2 Memory B Cells Over 18 Months Sublingual Immunotherapy for House Dust Mite Allergy. [PDF]

Allergy
Rapid clinical relief of allergy symptoms during 18 months of sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) for house dust mite (HDM) is associated with increased serum IgE, IgG2, and IgG4 to Der p 1 and Der p 2. Der p 1 and Der p 2 specific Type 2 memory B cells are expanded at 4 months and 12 months of SLIT, with increased expression of CD29 and IgG4.

Distinct Nasal Microbiome Profiles and Prediction Model for Allergic Rhinitis, Nonallergic Rhinitis, and Healthy Children

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
The alpha and beta diversity of the nasal microbiome differed among children with allergic rhinitis (AR), nonallergic rhinitis (NAR), and healthy controls (HCs). Compared to HC, AR had more Escherichia‐Shigella, Negativicoccus, and Campylobacter, while NAR had more Dolosigranulum and fewer Enterobacteriaceae.
