  2. Anti-gliadin antibodies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-gliadin_antibodies

    The IgG antibody is similar to AGA IgA, but is found at higher levels in patients with the IgA-less phenotype. It is also associated with coeliac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity. [5] [6] [7] Anti-gliadin antibodies are frequently found with anti-transglutaminase antibodies.

  3. Cross-reactive carbohydrate determinants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-reactive...

    IgE antibodies against plant/insect CCD determinants were shown to have both strict specificity and high affinity, so in principle they might be expected to lead to clinical symptoms just as habitual for anti-peptide IgE. In vitro experiments (histamine-release tests) with polyvalent glyco-allergens corroborated this view.

  4. Isotype (immunology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotype_(immunology)

    The IgG, IgE and IgA antibody isotypes are generated following class-switching during germinal centre reaction and provide different effector functions in response to specific antigens. IgG is the most abundant antibody class in the serum and it is divided into 4 subclasses based on differences in the structure of the constant region genes and ...

  5. Allergy test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allergy_test

    Allergy blood tests measure the presence of IgE antibodies to specific foods, pollens, mites, animals, insects and other environmental factors. (IgE, short for "immunoglobulin E", is the antibody that triggers food allergy symptoms.) The doctor looks at the test results to help determine if the patient has allergies.

  6. Food allergy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_allergy

    IgE and/or non-IgE-mediated – a hybrid of the above two types; Allergic reactions are abnormal immune responses to certain substances that are normally harmless. When immune cells encounter the allergenic protein, IgE antibodies are produced; this is similar to the immune system's reaction to foreign pathogens. The IgE antibodies identify the ...

  7. Immunoglobulin superfamily - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunoglobulin_superfamily

    Antibodies or immunoglobulins: IgA IgD IgE IgG IgM; T-cell receptor chains; Antigen receptors found on the surface of T and B lymphocytes in all jawed vertebrates belong to the IgSF. Immunoglobulin molecules (the antigen receptors of B cells) are the founding members of the IgSF.

  8. Immunoglobulin G - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunoglobulin_G

    The water-accessible surface area of an IgG antibody. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is a type of antibody. Representing approximately 75% of serum antibodies in humans, IgG is the most common type of antibody found in blood circulation. [1] IgG molecules are created and released by plasma B cells. Each IgG antibody has two paratopes.

  9. Anti-immunoglobulin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-immunoglobulin

    This is a recombinant monoclonal antibody to IgE. The antibody binds to IgE circulating in the blood. Therefore, IgE cannot bind to mast cells to trigger a histamine response. Anti-IgE [huMaE11 (Omalizumab)] is used in drugs that treat allergies and asthma. [16] Anti-IgE [TES-C21] This is a recombinant monoclonal antibody to IgE.
