In vitro tests in drug hypersensitivity diagnosis.

30 Jul 2009 The diagnosis of a drug hypersensitivity reaction (DHR) is a challenging task because multiple and complex mechanisms are involved. Better understanding of immunologic pathomechanisms in DHRs and rapid progress in cellular-based in-vitro tests can ... Read more...

Decreased risk for atopic disorder associated with highly hyperreactive tuberculin skin test reaction in children and adolescents.

29 Jun 2009 BACKGROUND: It is speculated that the exposure to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, either by infection or by Bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccination, may inhibit the onset of atopy by the modification of immune profiles leading to a shift of T(H)1/T(H)2 ... Read more...

[Activation processes in the lymphocytes of patients with latent sensitization]

30 Dec 2008 Latent sensitization is a risk factor of a clinically manifest atopic reaction. Investigation of a phenotypic composition of lymphocytes reveals function of the immune system in this condition. Indirect fluorescence assessed differential and ... Read more...
