Advances in allergic skin disease, anaphylaxis, and hypersensitivity reactions to foods, drugs, and insects in 2012
SH Sicherer, DYM Leung - Journal of allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2013 - Elsevier
This review highlights some of the research advances in anaphylaxis; hypersensitivity
reactions to foods, drugs, and insects; and allergic skin diseases that were reported in the
Journal in 2012. Studies support an increase in peanut allergy prevalence in children and
exposure to the antibacterial agent triclosan and having filaggrin (FLG) loss-of-function
mutations as risk factors for food sensitization. The role of specific foods in causing
eosinophilic esophagitis is elucidated by several studies, and microRNA analysis is …
