Abstract

We describe a two year-old multiallergic boy who developed generalized urticaria after the third Di-Te-Pol vaccination. A Type I reaction to the vaccine was demonstrated by performing basophil histamine release to the complete vaccine. Further, we found that the reaction could be exclusively ascribed to Diphtheria-Toxoid whereas no release was observed by the Polio and Tetanus component. The latter result was confirmed since no specific IgE to Tetanus Toxoid could be demonstrated.

Atopic Dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory genetically determined disease of the skin marked by increased ability to form reagin (IgE), with increased susceptibility to allergic rhinitis and asthma, and hereditary disposition to a lowered threshold for pruritus. Discover the latest research on atopic dermatitis here.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.

Basophils

Basophils are myeloid cells with a high affinity IgE receptor and is involved in inflammatory responses during allergy. Discover the latest research on Basophils here.
