  1. 1. Novel allergen preparations for use in allergen-specific immunotherapy

    Författare :Theresa Neimert Andersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Allergy; allergen-specific immunotherapy; adjuvants; carbohydrate-based particles; allergic asthma; mouse models; hypoallergens;

    Sammanfattning : Allergy is a common disease in the industrialized countries, affecting approximately 25% of the population. Therefore, there is a need to find new treatment strategies to improve the quality of life for allergic individuals. Today the only treatment that gives long-lasting reduction of allergic symptoms is allergen-specific immunotherapy (SIT). LÄS MER

  2. 2. Molecular characterisation of major allergens from mite (Lep d 2) and cat (Fel d 1)

    Författare :Liselotte Kaiser; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Allergens allergy; cat; mite; immunotherapy; recombinant allergens.;

    Sammanfattning : The prevalence of allergic disease has increased significantly during the last decades and today more than 30% of the Swedish population is affected. By using recombinant allergens, diagnostics and treatment can be improved and the mechanisms of allergic reactions may be further explored. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Novel treatment strategies and regulation of IgE-mediated allergic disease

    Författare :Sarah Thunberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Allergic symptoms such as rhinoconjunctivitis, asthma or gastrointestinal symptoms, triggered by inhaled or ingested allergens cross-linking allergen-specific IgE on mast cells or basophils, are defined as IgE-mediated allergy. The major allergens from birch pollen (Bet v 1) and cat dander (Fel d 1) are two common allergens eliciting allergic disease. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Recombinant cat and mite allergens as tools in the study of diagnosis and treatment of allergy

    Författare :Tiiu Saarne; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Allergic diseases, such as allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis and atopic eczema, are a major health problem world-wide, affecting up to 30% of the population. A large proportion of the patients are allergic to indoor allergens, such as mite and cat allergens, which are airborne and thus cause symptoms in the airways upon inhalation. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Diagnosis of IgE-mediated allergy : new approaches using recombinant allergens

    Författare :Hans Grönlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Allergens; allergy; cat; diagnostics; immunotherapy; recombinant allergens;

    Sammanfattning : More than 10% of the population in industrialized countries suffer from lgE-mediated cat allergy. Allergens produced by recombinant techniques offer new possibilites to diagnose and treat allergic patients but will also help to uncover the mechanisms behind the sensitisation. LÄS MER
