1. Diagnosis of IgE-mediated allergy : new approaches using 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
2. Use of Recombinant Allergens for Component-Resolved Diagnostics (CRD) in IgE-Mediated Allergy
Sammanfattning : Immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated allergy occurs when our immune system causes a reaction to otherwise harmless substances (allergens). Allergens are predominantly proteins present in biological materials such as pollens, mites, animal epithelia, moulds and foods. LÄS MER
3. Molecular characterisation of major allergens from mite (Lep d 2) and cat (Fel d 1)
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
4. A study of allergens in the mite Lepidoglyphus destructor, using monoclonal antibodies and recombinant techniques
Sammanfattning : Mites are one of the most common causes of allergic reactions in many parts of the world. They can broadly be divided into two categories: house dust mites, primarily found in dwellings, and storage mites, primarily found in farming environments and grain storage facilities. Storage mites have now also been shown to exist in house dust. LÄS MER
5. Recombinant cat and mite allergens as tools in the study of diagnosis and treatment of allergy
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
