Pretreatment with low levels of FcεRI-crosslinking stimulation enhances basophil mediator release.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The so-called 'latex-fruit syndrome' is a well-documented phenomenon in cross-reactive allergies. By contrast, there is a lack of information about allergy to exotic fruits in patients with a predominant pollen sensitization. Since the ubiquitous protein profilin has been identified as an allergen in natural...
