Brucellosis in humans – etiology, diagnostics, clinical forms. Ann Agric Environ Med. 2013; 20(2): 233–238. Abstract Brucellosis in humans is a zoonosis of greatly varied clinical image. It occurs on all inhabited continents. The course of the disease may be acute, sub-acute or chronic. The etiologic factors of brucellosis are small, aerobic Gram-negative rods of the genus Brucella, which currently contains ten species: B. abortus, B. suis, B. ovis, B. melitensis, B. canis, B. neotomae, B. pinnipedialis, B. ceti, B. microti and B. inopinata. In humans, the disease is caused mainly by: B. melitensis as the most pathogenic species, followed by B. suis, whereas B. abortus is considered as the mildest type of brucellosis. The natural reservoir of the germ and the source of infection in humans are infected domestic animals, primarily cattle, sheep, goats, as well as wild animals. Infection in humans occurs by penetration through damaged skin, conjunctiva, and more rarely via the alimentary route by the consumption of infected products. Especially exposed are: veterinarians, veterinary technicians, insemination service employees, zoo technicians,

The question here was if in turn skin allergens can induce allergy in the respiratory tract. Respiratory allergy was tested in Th2-prone Brown Norway (BN) rats by dermal sensitization with the contact allergen dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB; 1%, day 0; 0.5%, day 7) and a head/nose-only inhalation challenge of 27 mg/m3 of DNCB (15 min, day 21), using a protocol that successfully identified chemical respiratory allergens. Skin allergy to DNCB was examined in BN rats and Th1-prone Wistar rats in a local lymph node assay followed by a topical patch challenge of 0.1% DNCB. Sensitization of BN rats via the skin induced DNCB-specific IgG in serum, but not in all animals, and an increased number of CD4+ cells in the lung parenchyma. Subsequent inhalation challenge with DNCB did not provoke apneas or allergic inflammation (signs of respiratory allergy) in the BN rats.

  • Skin Allergy Test Information for Patients, Relatives and Carers
    Lung Function Laboratory Skin allergy test Information for patients, relatives and carers This leaflet has been designed to give you information about skin allergy test and answers some of the questions that you or those who care for you may have. It is not meant to replace the discussion between you and your medical team but aims to help you understand more about what is discussed. If you have any questions about the information below, please contact us. Introduction The skin allergy test or skin prick test is a diagnostic test that investigates the immediate response of your body when exposed to specific allergens. This can aid your doctor in diagnosing and treating the symptoms you may be suffering from. What to expect on the day The test will be performed by putting drops of liquid allergen on the skin of your forearm and then lightly pricking the skin to see if a reaction occurs. Once the reactions have had a sufficient time to develop they will then be measured with the entire process taking roughly 30 minute in duration. During this time you may experience some minor swelling and itchiness around the test sites which should subside prior to you leaving the lung function department. Allergens we test for Air-borne allergens are transported through the air and into the nose, which can cause an allergic reaction. We test the most common allergy triggers from within and around your home environment. These include animal fur, feathers, tree and flower pollen, mould spores and house dust mite. We test 10 allergens as well as two control solutions.

  • Sensitivity to House Dust Mites Allergens in Patients with Allergic
    34 Original Investigation / Özgün Araştırma Sensitivity to House Dust Mites Allergens in Patients with Allergic Asthma in Erzincan Province, Turkey Erzincan’da Alerjik Astımlı Hastaların Ev Tozu Akar Alerjenlerine Karşı Duyarlılığı Erhan Zeytun1, Salih Doğan1, Fatih Özçiçek2, Edhem Ünver3 1Department of Biology, Erzincan University Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Erzincan, Turkey 2Department of Internal Medicine, Erzincan University School of Medicine, Erzincan, Turkey 3Department of Chest Disease, Erzincan University School of Medicine, Erzincan, Turkey ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the sensitivity of allergic asthma (AA) patients to house dust mites (HDM) by conducting skin tests, measuring total and specific IgE antibodies toDermatophagoides pteronyssinus and D. farinae mites, and examining HDM fauna in patients’ homes. Methods: The study included 25 patients with AA and 31 healthy controls, who were challenged with Der p and Der f allergens; serum levels of allergen-specific lgE and total IgE were measured. Dust samples were collected from the homes of all participants, and mite species and the number of mites per gram of dust were investigated. Results: D. pteronyssinus was found in the homes of 94.7% patients with positive Der p reactions in the skin test (p<0.001). D. farinae was found in the homes of 22.2% patients with positive Der f reactions in the skin test (p>0.05). D. pteronyssinus-specific IgE was detected in 75% patients in whose homes D. pteronyssinus was also found, while D. farinae-specific IgE was detected in 16.6% patients in whose homesD. farinae was also found. Conclusion: A part of AA patients residing in Erzincan are sensitive to HDM allergens, and high numbers of mites leading to allergic sensi- tization are found in their homes.

  • Atopic Dermatitis with Possible Polysensitization and Monkey Esophagus Reactivity
    www.najms.org North American Journal of Medical Sciences 2010 July, Volume 2. No. 7. Case Report OPEN ACCESS Atopic dermatitis with possible polysensitization and monkey esophagus reactivity Ana Maria Abreu Velez, MD, Ph.D1, Michael S. Howard, MD,1 Bruce R. Smoller MD 2 1Georgia Dermatopathology Associates, Atlanta, Georgia, USA. 2Department of Pathology, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas, USA. Citation: Abreu Velez AM, Howard MS, Smoller BR. Atopic dermatitis with possible polysensitization and monkey esophagus reactivity. North Am J Med Sci 2010; 2: 336-340. Availability: www.najms.org ISSN: 1947 – 2714 Abstract Context: Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease resulting from interactions between environmental and genetic factors. Recent studies link atopic dermatitis with asthma and with eosinophilic esophagitis. Case Report: Based on this association, we investigated by indirect immunofluorescence the immunoreactivity patterns on monkey esophagus substrate utilizing the serum of a patient with severe atopic dermatitis. We also examined the patient’s skin biopsy by H&E histology and immunohistochemistry. We detected strong deposits of albumin, IgE, IgG, IgD, IgA, Complement/C1q and mast cell tryptase in multiples structures of the skin, as well as a broad pattern of intraepithelial staining on monkey esophagus. Strong staining positivity was also detected within the inflammatory infiltrate around the upper dermal vessels, as well as additional positive staining for the human leukocyte antigen system antigens DR DP and DQ. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrate that there could be an indication for testing patients with severe atopic dermatitis for autoreactivity to filaggrin (anti-keratin antibodies) utilizing monkey esophagus.

An extensive search of the literature was performed in Medline/PubMed with the key terms “mango”, “anaphylaxis”, “contact dermatitis”, “cross-reactivity”, “food hypersensitivity”, “oral allergy syndrome” and “urticaria”. The bibliographies of all papers thus located were searched for further relevant articles. A total of 17 reports describing 22 patients were documented, including ten patients with immediate hypersensitivity reaction and twelve patients with delayed hypersensitivity reaction to mango. Ten of these patients (four with immediate reaction; six with delayed reaction) were from geographical areas cultivating mango, whereas twelve patients (six with immediate reaction; six with delayed reaction) were from the countries where large scale mango cultivation does not occur. The clinical features, pathogenesis and diagnostic modalities of both these presentations are highlighted. The fruit mango can cause immediate and delayed hypersensitivity reactions, as also “oral allergy syndrome”. Although rare, it can even result in a life threatening event.
