Effects of interferon-alpha-2b on the clinical course, inflammatory skin infiltrates and peripheral blood lymphocytes in patients with severe atopic eczema.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Asthma is a common co-morbidity of allergic rhinitis (AR). The prevalence of these two allergic diseases has increased in China and has been shown to cluster in families independently. This study evaluated the association between maternal AR (presenting with or without asthma) and the allergic conditions in ...

abstract：BACKGROUND:The human IgE response is associated with allergy and with host defence against parasitic worms. A response to Sm22.6, the dominant IgE antigen in adult Schistosoma mansoni worms, correlates with resistance to re-infection after treatment. Sm22.6 is one of a family of EF-hand containing parasite proteins wit...
