Japanese cedar pollinosis and HLA‐DP5

Tissue Antigens, 1996
Japanese cedar pollinosis is a type I allergic disease caused by Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) pollen. We investigated the association between the disease and HLA class II alleles by HLA‐DNA typing using a PCR‐SSOP method and found that the frequency of HLA‐DP5 (DPA1*02022 and DPB1*0501) was significantly increased in the patients.

Daily Japanese cedar pollen forecast in Sendai.

Nippon Jibiinkoka Gakkai Kaiho, 1990
The forecast of daily Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) pollen counts was performed in Sendai in 1987, 1988 and 1989. The expected daily maximum temperature was used as a main determinative factor, and the term "pollen index", which is a ratio of a daily pollen count to the rest of the total seasonal pollen count, was devised and proved to be ...
