A longitudinal study of natural antibody development to pneumococcal surface protein A families 1 and 2 in Papua New Guinean Highland children: a cohort study

Pneumococcal surface protein A is immunogenic and natural anti-PspA immune responses are acquired through exposure and develop with age

Effect of amino acid polymorphisms of house dust mite Der p 2 variants on allergic sensitization

Measures of allergic sensitization and therapeutic strategies could be optimized with knowledge of Der p 2 variants

Analysis of IgE binding patterns to house dust mite allergens in scabies-endemic communities: insights for both diseases

This study analysed the IgE binding patterns caused by house dust mite allergens in scabies endemic communities in Australia.

Hypersensitivity: Immunological

This comprehensive review provides an introduction to immunological hypersensitivity, discusses the sensitisation of T-cell lineages.

Lower anti-echovirus antibody responses in children presenting to hospital with asthma exacerbations.

This article assesses the absolute and specific antibody titres to VP1 antigens of the gut-trophic enteroviruses, echovirus 30 and Sabin 1 poliovirus, in...

RSV prophylaxis use in high-risk infants in Western Australia, 2002-2013: a record linkage cohort study

The monoclonal antibody, palivizumab is licensed for use in high-risk infants to prevent severe illness caused by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). The level of its use and compliance with current jurisdictional guidelines which were amended in 2010, is unknown.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Tuberculosis Control

Throughout history, pandemics of viral infections such as HIV, Ebola and Influenza have disrupted health care systems, including the prevention and control of endemic diseases. Such disruption has resulted in an increased burden of endemic diseases in post-pandemic periods.

WHO/IUIS Allergen Nomenclature: Providing a common language

Aim was to standardize the names given to the antigens (allergens) that caused IgE-mediated allergies in humans

Genome-wide association study of IgG1 responses to the choline-binding protein PspC of Streptococcus pneumoniae

Delayed development of antibodies to S. pneumoniae in infancy is associated with the development of atopy and asthma.

Hierarchy and molecular properties of house dust mite allergens

The allergenic load of house dust mite allergy is largely constituted by a few proteins with a hierarchical pattern of allergenicity.
