A dual CysLT1/2 antagonist attenuates allergen-induced airway responses in subjects with mild allergic asthma.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Specific IgE tests are sometimes difficult to interpret due to structural similarities between certain food and pollen allergens. This may be the reason why concomitant sensitization to peanut and birch pollen is frequently seen. The aim of this study was to investigate reported symptoms to peanut- and birch...
