  2. Immunoglobulin E - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunoglobulin_E

    IgE primes the IgE-mediated allergic response by binding to Fc receptors found on the surface of mast cells and basophils. Fc receptors are also found on eosinophils, monocytes, macrophages and platelets in humans. There are two types of Fcε receptors: [citation needed] FcεRI (type I Fcε receptor), the high-affinity IgE receptor

  3. Type I hypersensitivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_I_hypersensitivity

    Type I hypersensitivity (or immediate hypersensitivity), in the Gell and Coombs classification of allergic reactions, is an allergic reaction provoked by re-exposure to a specific type of antigen referred to as an allergen. [1] Type I is distinct from type II, type III and type IV hypersensitivities. The relevance of the Gell and Coombs ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omalizumab

    In conjunction with achieving the practical goal to investigate the applicability of the anti-IgE therapy as a potential treatment for allergic diseases, the many corporate-sponsored clinical trials of TNX-901 and omalizumab on asthma, allergic rhinitis, peanut allergy, chronic idiopathic urticaria, atopic dermatitis, and other allergic ...

  5. Drug allergy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_allergy

    There are two broad mechanisms for a drug allergy to occur: IgE or non-IgE mediated. In IgE-mediated reactions, also known as immunoglobulin E mediated reactions, drug allergens bind to IgE antibodies, which are attached to mast cells and basophils, resulting in IgE cross-linking, cell activation and release of preformed and newly formed mediators.

  6. Hypersensitivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypersensitivity

    The treatment of immediate hypersensitivity reactions includes the management of anaphylaxis with intramuscular adrenaline (epinephrine), oxygen, intravenous (IV) antihistamine, support blood pressure with IV fluids, avoid latex gloves and equipment in patients who are allergic, and surgical procedures such as tracheotomy if there is severe ...

  7. Allergen immunotherapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allergen_immunotherapy

    Allergen immunotherapy, also known as desensitization or hypo-sensitization, is a medical treatment for environmental allergies (such as insect bites) and asthma. [1] [2] Immunotherapy involves exposing people to larger and larger amounts of allergens in an attempt to change the immune system's response.

  8. Bet v I allergen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bet_v_I_allergen

    Bet v 1 is the main cause of type I allergies observed in early spring. Type I, or immunoglobulin E-mediated (IgE-mediated) allergies affect 1 in 5 people in Europe and North America. Commonly observed symptoms are hay fever, dermatitis, asthma and, in severe cases, anaphylactic shock.

  9. Wikipedia : Osmosis/Type I hypersensitivity

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Osmosis/Type_I...

    Actually, it takes two or more bound antigens to cross-link the IgE antibodies, which signals the mast cell to degranulate and release a bunch of pro-inflammatory molecules called mediators that ultimately causes the effects seen in an allergic reaction. One of the major mediators released in an allergic reaction is histamine.
