Abstract
Summary
House dust mites are among the most important allergy triggers worldwide. While mites of the genus Dermatophagoides occur almost worldwide, the tropical mite Blomia tropicalis and storage mites are only of importance for certain areas or groups of people. The most important allergens of Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus are Der p 1, Der p 2, and Der p 23 with immunoglobulin E (IgE)-binding frequencies of more than 70% and high allergenic activity. Also of importance are Der p 5, Der p 7, and Der p 21, which have IgE-binding frequencies of about 30%. According to the current state of knowledge, these six allergens are the allergens of clinical relevance which are also required for diagnosis and immunotherapy with individual components.
夏季屋尘螨是全球最重要的过敏诱因之一。虽然皮螨属的螨虫几乎在世界各地都有发生,但热带斑点螨和储藏螨只对某些地区或人群重要。屋尘螨最重要的过敏原是Der p1、Der p2和Der p2 3,免疫球蛋白E(IgE)结合频率超过70%,具有高致敏活性。同样重要的是Der p 5、Der p 7和Der p 21,它们具有约30%的IgE结合频率。根据目前的知识状况,这六种过敏原是具有临床相关性的过敏原,也是诊断和免疫治疗所需的单独成分。
期刊介绍:
Allergo Journal International is the official Journal of the German Society for Applied Allergology (AeDA) and the Austrian Society for Allergology and Immunology (ÖGAI). The journal is a forum for the communication and exchange of ideas concerning the various aspects of allergy (including related fields such as clinical immunology and environmental medicine) and promotes German allergy research in an international context. The aim of Allergo Journal International is to provide state of the art information for all medical and scientific disciplines that deal with allergic, immunological and environmental diseases. Allergo Journal International publishes original articles, reviews, short communications, case reports, and letters to the editor. The articles cover topics such as allergic, immunological and environmental diseases, the latest developments in diagnosis and therapy as well as current research work concerning antigens and allergens and aspects related to occupational and environmental medicine. In addition, it publishes clinical guidelines and position papers approved by expert panels of the German, Austrian and Swiss Allergy Societies.
All submissions are reviewed in single-blind fashion by at least two reviewers.
Originally, the journal started as a German journal called Allergo Journal back in 1992. Throughout the years, English articles amounted to a considerable portion in Allergo Journal. This was one of the reasons to extract the scientific content and publish it in a separate journal. Hence, Allergo Journal International was born and now is the international continuation of the original German journal. Nowadays, all original content is published in Allergo Journal International first. Later, selected manuscripts will be translated and published in German and included in Allergo Journal.
