IgE is one of 5 human antibodies and is important in causing allergic symptoms. The IgE antibody attaches selectively to mast cells lining the respiratory mucous membrane, gastrointestinal tract, and skin. When the part of the IgE antibody is exposed to its matching allergen, then the mast cell is stimulated to release chemical mediators that cause allergic symptoms.
The antibody, which is formed in response to pollens, dust mites, grass, and other allergens.
Immunoglobin E, a class of antibodies, which play a major role in allergic diseases
One type of antibody that defends the body against outside invaders. The resulting reaction is an allergic reaction.
one of the five major classes of immunoglobulins; present primarily in the skin and mucous membranes
Predominant antibody type in involved in allergic reactions.
antibody associated with allergic reactions
A type of antibody that results in the sensitisation of mast cells to subsequent exposure to an allergen
Immunoglobulins E, type of immunoglobin that triggers the release of histamine from mast cells which causes an allergic reaction.
Immunoglobulins E, a family of antibodies responsible for allergic reactions.
an immunoglobulin found in trace amounts in the blood and considered to be responsible for allergic reactions.
An antibody produced by the body that is concentrated in the mucous membranes. Reactions with IgE release chemical mediators chat cause asthma symptoms. leukocriene modifiers: A class of drugs taken daily, in pill form, to control chronic asthma.
A naturally occurring substance in the body that, in some people, can cause a series of chemical reactions that may lead to asthma symptoms and attacks.
E-class immunoglobin. The type of immunoglobin that triggers release of Histamine from Mast Cells and sets off an acute allergic reaction.
