Dependence of immediate hypersensitivity in the adolescent period on factors encountered in infancy.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Over 100 million people worldwide suffer from birch pollen allergy. Bet v 1 has been identified as the major birch pollen allergen. However, the molecular mechanisms of birch allergic sensitization, including the roles of Bet v 1 and other components of the birch pollen extract, remain incompletely understoo...
