IgE-mediated food-allergic disease differs from non-IgE-mediated disease because the pathophysiology results from activation of the immune system, causing a T helper 2 response which results in IgE binding to Fcε receptors on effector cells like mast cells and basophils. The activation of these ...
by those antigen-presenting cells. This in turn results in the differentiation of naïve T cells into T regulatory cells and suppression of food antigen-specific Th2 cells, as well as increased IgA and IgG4 production and a decrease in IgE by B cells. Finally, there is immune suppression ...

Skin tests should include the relevant allergens ...
We examined the diagnostic value of specific IgE antibody for food allergen, histamine release test and skin prick test in children with food allergy. Methods Specific IgE antibody for food, histamine release test and skin prick test were performed in 119 patients (range, 2 y 1 mo to 17 y ...
