Aspergillus fumigatus viability drives allergic responses to inhaled conidia.
CONCLUSION: Our studies demonstrate that A. fumigatus conidial viability in vivo is critical to the immunopathological presentation of chronic fungal allergic disease. PMID: 29660515 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Bedroom Exposure to Airborne Allergens in the Chicago Area Using a Patient-Operated Sampling Device.
CONCLUSION: The combination of ease of use, high air sampling rate and sensitive immunoassays permitted the measurement of airborne allergens concentrations in homes and establishment of reference ranges. Patientreported information permitted identification of factors that could relate to allergen concentrations and suggest remedial measures. PMID: 29860049 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis complicating Swyer-James-Macleod's syndrome: case report and review of literature.
Authors: Sehgal IS, Dhooria S, Behera D, Agarwal R Abstract Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a pulmonary disorder that results from immune responses mounted against antigens of Aspergillus fumigatus, resulting in non-specific respiratory symptoms and structural lung damage. Classically defined in individuals suffering from bronchial asthma and cystic fibrosis, ABPA has recently been described in other lung diseases including COPD, pulmonary tuberculosis, idiopathic bronchiectasis and others. Herein, we report the first case of ABPA complicating Swyer-James-Macleod's syndrome that was successfully t...

Allergic Bronchopulmonary Mycosis due to fungi other than Aspergillus.
Authors: Deepak L, Singh Rajput M, Sharma B Abstract Summary: Allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis (ABPM) is a clinical syndrome associated with immune sensitivity to various fungi that colonize the airways. Early diagnosis and treatment with systemic corticosteroids is the key in preventing the progression of the disease to irreversible lung fibrosis. Although Aspergillus has progressively gained recognition as a causative agent in past few decades, other fungi, that have been reported to cause ABPM, are not yet widely evaluated. We studied hundred and two patients with asthma for occurrence of ABPM. Patients were te...

Monitoring the profile of mould sensitization in children and adults in Volga region
Conclusions: The prevalence of mould allergy to AA increases. Monitoring of etiological factors and common associations of IgE-antibodies in allergic rhinitis and asthma is important for of elimination, prevention and treatment programs.

Variable risk of atopic disease due to indoor fungal exposure in NHANES 2005‐2006
ConclusionExposure to a mildew/musty odour, as a proxy for exposure to fungus, was implicated in an increased risk of atopic diseases. Sensitisation may play a different role in children and adults and exposure to multiple allergens may reduce the risk of atopic disease.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

IgE sensitization to Aspergillus fumigatus among children in allergological centre of Saratov
Conclusions: IgE sensitization to Af increases the risk of rhinosinusitis in children with allergic rhinitis, and often combined with allergen-induced inflammation in epidermal allergy.

Optimizing cultivation conditions for highest expression of fungal allergens
CONCLUSION: This study shows the impact of different environmental conditions on the expression of the fungal allergens Alt a 1, Ulo c 1, and different fungal enolases. It further, broadens the knowledge about the expression pattern of the major fungal allergens Alt a 1 and Ulo c 1. Information obtained in this study will help to optimize fungal cultivation to produce diagnostic fungal extracts of high quality and therefore improve diagnosis' specificity and sensitivity.PMID:36435304 | DOI:10.1016/j.anai.2022.11.017

The IL-17F/IL-17RC Axis Promotes Respiratory Allergy in the Proximal Airways
Publication date: 15 August 2017 Source:Cell Reports, Volume 20, Issue 7 Author(s): Antonella De Luca, Marilena Pariano, Barbara Cellini, Claudio Costantini, Valeria Rachela Villella, Shyam Sushama Jose, Melissa Palmieri, Monica Borghi, Claudia Galosi, Giuseppe Paolicelli, Luigi Maiuri, Jan Fric, Teresa Zelante The interleukin 17 (IL-17) cytokine and receptor family is central to antimicrobial resistance and inflammation in the lung. Mice lacking IL-17A, IL-17F, or the IL-17RA subunit were compared with wild-type mice for susceptibility to airway inflammation in models of infection and allergy. Signaling through IL-17RA w...

Exposure to household dust, allergens, and endotoxin and allergy-related outcomes alternation in the general U.S. population
Environ Res. 2023 Mar 17:115713. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.115713. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIt has been widely reported that the general population was at an increased risk of allergy diseases, which probably be related with household allergens exposure. However, the difference of local and systemic allergic reactions exposure to allergens has not been reported in general population previously. The data of 1094 U.S. adults from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2006 data bank were analyzed. Dust, allergens (Bia g 1, Bia g 2, Can f 1, Feld 1, Derp 1, Mus m 1, Rat n 1, Alternaria altern...

Effect of Canavalia gladiata Extract Fermented with Aspergillus oryzae on the Development of Atopic Dermatitis in NC/Nga Mice
Canavalia gladiata has been used as a Chinese traditional folk medicine for its anti-inflammatory properties. However, the use of C. gladiata is limited because it contains antinutritional and allergy-causing proteins. We fermented C. gladiata with Aspergillus oryzae and investigated the effects of fermented C. gladiata (FCG) on the development of atopic dermatitis (AD) in mice. The mice were divided into five groups: untreated Balb/c mice; AD control (NC/Nga mice); FCGH (NC/Nga mice fed a dietary supplement of 300 mg/kg fermented C. gladiata water extract); FCG30 (NC/Nga mice fed a dietary supplement of 300 mg/kg of ferme...
