Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) induces gene transcription by binding CREB-binding protein (CBP). The aim of the study was to detect the mechanisms by which NF-κB pathway regulated aquaporin 5 (AQP5) in the nasal mucosa of rats with allergic rhinitis (AR). Rats were divided into control (group C),
Haptens causing type I allergy have been shown to predominantly form lysine adducts in the carrier protein, while many haptens giving rise to type IV allergy preferentially form adducts with cysteine residues. Hexahydrophthalic anhydride derivatives are strong sensitizers capable of inducing
Up to 20% of the population in industrialized countries suffer from type I allergic symptoms (rhinitis, conjunctivitis, and bronchial asthma). The cDNA coding for birch pollen profilin, a highly conserved cross-reactive allergen and actin-binding protein was expressed in Escherichia coli. Upon
BACKGROUND
Type 1 allergy affects 20% of industrialized populations and thus represents a major health care issue. The symptoms of type 1 allergy, which include rhinitis, conjunctivitis, dermatitis and asthma, are elicited by the cross-linking of IgE receptors through polyvalent allergens. A
Pasteurella multocida toxin (PMT) induces atrophic rhinitis in animals, which is characterized by a degradation of nasal turbinate bones, indicating an effect of the toxin on bone cells such as osteoblasts and osteoclasts. The underlying molecular mechanism of PMT was defined as a persistent
BACKGROUND
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a heterogeneous disorder that significantly affects daily activity, work productivity, sleep, learning, and quality of life in all generations. Japanese cedar (JC) pollen is the most common allergen responsible for the development of AR in Japan. AR caused by JC
BACKGROUND
Ricinus communis (castor bean) is a species included into the Euphorbiaceae family, common to all the warm regions of the world. Although the allergenicity of its seed is well known, references are scarce regarding the role played by its pollen as a pneumo-allergen.
