Immune Responses to Allergens in Atopic Disease: Considerations for Bioinformatics

Allergies are mediated by several immunological mechanisms that make different contributions in different patients.

Der p 11 is a major allergen for house dust mite-allergic patients suffering from atopic dermatitis

House dust mites (HDMs) belong to the most potent indoor allergen sources worldwide and are associated with allergic manifestations in the respiratory tract.

Children with chronic suppurative lung disease have a reduced capacity to synthesize interferon-gamma in vitro in response to non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae

The aim of this study was to identify features of innate, cell-mediated and humoral immunity that may increase susceptibility to respiratory infections in...

Update of the WHO/IUIS Allergen Nomenclature Database based on analysis of allergen sequences

This paper summarizes updates of allergen names approved at the meetings of the IUIS Allergen Nomenclature Sub-Committee in 2011 through 2013.

Comparison of rhinovirus antibody titers in children with asthma exacerbations and species-specific rhinovirus infection

Asthma exacerbations are associated with human rhinovirus (HRV) infections, and more severe exacerbations are associated with HRV-C.

Defective respiratory tract immune surveillance in asthma : A primary causal factor in disease onset and progression

The relative importance of respiratory viral infections vs inhalant allergy in asthma pathogenesis is the subject of ongoing debate.

Species-Specific and Cross-Reactive IgG1 Antibody Binding to Viral Capsid Protein 1 (VP1) Antigens of Human Rhinovirus Species A, B and C

Human rhinoviruses (HRV) are associated with upper and lower respiratory illnesses, including severe infections causing hospitalization in both children...

Recombinant house dust mite allergens

House dust mites (HDM) are a globally important source of allergen responsible for the sensitization of more than 50% of allergic patients.

Protective anti-outer membrane protein immunity against Pasteurella pneumotropica infection of mice

The proteins examined were the homologues of the P4, P6, P26, and D15 proteins of Haemophilus influenzae.

Innate affairs of allergens

Activation of receptors of the innate immune system is a critical step in the initiation of immune responses.
