  • Food Allergy and Food Intolerance: Specific Versus Innate Immunity Roger Davis Deutsch
    The Original Internist article Food Allergy and Food Intolerance: specific versus innate immunity Roger Davis Deutsch Nomenclature The concept of an allergy was fairly well understood when von Pirquet, an Austrian physician, first introduced the term in 1906. It was intended to denote an altered reaction to a normally innocuous substance. Two decades later allergists in Europe agreed to narrow the definition to apply only to such an altered reaction as may be characterized by an immediate onset of symptoms. Contemporary physicians recognize a distinction between immediate and delayed-type altered reactions in their nomenclature by applying the terms, “intolerance” or “sensitivity” in the case of common reactions to foods and other chemicals, where symptom onset is delayed and typically of a less acute nature than that which has come to be known as a “true” allergy, classical allergy, or Type I hypersensitivity, according to the Gell and Coombs classification system. Although both phenomena involve an aberrant immune response, the mechanisms underlying each are quite different. Broadly speaking, classical allergy is a function of the specific immune system, whilst intolerance involves activation of the innate branch of the immune system. Classical allergy is a function of the specific immune system The most prominent hallmark of specific immunity is memory; hence the rationale underlying immunization. It is termed, “specific” because it makes use of pathogen- or allergen-specific binding sites on Immunoglobulins or lymphocyte receptor molecules in the process of recognition. Prior exposure to the activating substance is therefore necessary in order to “prime” or elicit a subsequent response of the specific immune system.

  • Measurement of Mast Cell and Basophil Activation in Vitro As Means for Investigation of Drug Hypersensitivity
    University of Southampton Faculty of Medicine Measurement of mast cell and basophil activation in vitro as means for investigation of drug hypersensitivity by Desiree Ludwig Thesis of the degree of Master of Philosophy May 2015 University of Southampton, Faculty of Medicine, Master of Philosophy, Desiree Ludwig Measurement of mast cell and basophil activation in vitro as means for investigation of drug hypersensitivity Abstract Allergic drug reactions to drugs are becoming more frequent throughout the world and are among the most common and serious form of immuno-pathological process in modern clinical medicine. These reactions can lead to life-threatening anaphylaxis which can occur within minutes of receiving the drug. Symptoms provoked by the explosive release of mediators from mast cells and basophils release may include itchiness, angioedema, difficulty breathing and circulatory collapse. There are few reliable laboratory tests available to identify those with drug hypersensitivity who may be at risk of anaphylactic shock, or even to establish if such a reaction has occurred. Confirmation of drug hypersensitivity by skin testing or oral challenge can put the patient at risk of serious reaction, and as such are expensive and performed at few centres. The aim of the study was to seek to develop new tests for drug allergy based on assessment of mast cell or basophil activation either in vitro or in vivo. Patients were recruited who were suspected of having suffered an allergic reaction to medicine and who were undergoing skin testing or oral drug challenge. Blood was collected before and following the challenge, the nature of symptoms provoked were recorded, and clinical history and demographic data obtained.

    Fakultät für Medizin Lehrstuhl für molekulare Allergologie Improved Diagnosis and Therapy of Hymenoptera Venom Allergy by Component-Resolved Approaches Maximilian Schiener Vollständiger Abdruck der von der Fakultät für Medizin der Technischen Universität München zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines Doktors der Naturwissenschaften (Dr. rer. nat.) genehmigten Dissertation. Vorsitzende: Prof. Dr. Christina Zielinski Prüfende/-r der Dissertation: 1. Priv.-Doz. Dr. Simon Blank 2. Prof. Dr. Michael Sattler Die Dissertation wurde am 23.01.2018 bei der Technischen Universität München eingereicht und durch die Fakultät für Medizin am 04.07.2018 angenommen. Abstract Patients suffering from allergies due to stings of Hymenoptera like Apis mellifera, Vespula vulgaris and Polistes dominula can experience severe to fatal anaphylactic reactions. Be- sides emergency treatment, venom immunotherapy (VIT) is the only curative treatment. VIT products are available from different manufactures and treatment efficacy is very high compared to other forms of allergen-specific immunotherapy. Nevertheless, thera- peutic failures can be observed and possibly originate from different venom extraction or work-up techniques. To reduce the cost resulting from unnecessary treatment with more than one venom and to avoid the chance of de novo sensitization, the identification of the insect causing the systemic reaction has to be unambiguous. Not all patients can correctly identify the causative insect and, moreover, diagnosis by skin testing is not al- ways straightforward. Therefore, serum specific immunoglobulin E (sIgE) levels to crude insect venom can be determined in routine diagnosis. In the past, this was shown to have several disadvantages, as single allergens can be underrepresented in venom extracts due to low biologic availability or stability, thus patients sensitized to those allergens might be missed.

For several years, IgE antibodies have been incriminated in the development of allergic diseases and parasitic infections and different anti-IgE therapies have been developed to encounter the pathogenic role of IgE in these pathologies. Recently, multiple studies showed the presence of elevated total IgE levels and demonstrated a pathogenic role of autoreactive IgE in SLE. This review aims to summarize the findings incriminating IgE and autoreactive IgE in the pathophysiology of SLE, to describe their functional outcomes on their targeted cells as well as to discuss different IgE-related therapeutic modalities that emerged and that may be beneficial for SLE patient care. Keywords: autoantibodies; isotypes; lupus; SLE; Fc receptors; IgE; basophils; plasmacytoid dendritic cells 1. Introduction Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease that predominantly affects women of childbearing age. The etiology of SLE is multifactorial and includes environmental, genetic and hormonal factors. SLE evolves by flares that can be triggered by environmental stimuli such as sun exposure or viral infections [1].
