Abstract:
:Since the discovery that IgE antibodies mediate allergy, decades of research have unraveled complex mechanisms associated with conventional immunotherapy and the vital protagonists that shape 'immune tolerance' to allergens. Debate exists on what should constitute the dominant effector mechanism in driving rational drug designs for next-generation immunotherapies. As vaccine technology continues to advance, the development of novel vaccines in this area of continued medical need might stand on a threshold of breakthrough inspired by experiments by Dunbar on the passive vaccination of allergic animals more than 100 years ago. In this opinion article, we discuss both novel insights into IgG antibodies as the principle effector modality induced by specific immunotherapy and advances in antigen-carrier design that may catapult allergy treatment into our modern world.
