Skin testing in delayed reactions to drugs.

30 Jul 2009 Drug skin tests (eg, patch tests, prick tests with delayed readings, intradermal tests [IDT], especially with delayed readings) are used to investigate cutaneous adverse drug reactions (CADR) in delayed hypersensitivity reactions caused by a ... Read more...

Immediate and delayed reactions to radiocontrast media: is there an allergic mechanism?

30 Jul 2009 Radiocontrast media can cause immediate (1 hour) and nonimmediate (>1 hour) hypersensitivity reactions that remain unpredictable and a cause of concern for radiologists and cardiologists. Immediate hypersensitivity reactions resemble anaphylaxis, ... Read more...

Direct crosstalk between mast cell-TNF and TNFR1-expressing endothelia mediates local tissue inflammation.

20 Jun 2009 Signaling through tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) controls bacterial infections and the induction of inflammatory Th1 cell-mediated autoimmune diseases. By dissecting Th1 cell-mediated delayed-type hypersensitivity responses (DTHRs) into ... Read more...
