BACKGROUND Hypersensitivity reactions to cyclosporine are rare. The mechanism of the reaction and guidelines for subsequent use of cyclosporine are not well defined. OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanisms involved in hypersensitivity reactions to cyclosporine and determine the feasibility of future

Cyclosporine is one of the main drugs used for the prophylaxis of graft versus host disease in bone marrow transplanted patients. Hypersensitivity reaction to intravenous cyclosporine is rare and might be due to its vehicle polyoxyethylated castor oil, Cremophor EL. The exact mechanism is unknown,

We have developed a guinea pig model of immediate airway responses following intradermal sensitization with free trimellitic anhydride (TMA). Guinea pigs were given an intradermal injection with either 0.1 ml of 0.3% TMA in corn oil (n = 8) or 0.1 ml of corn oil alone (n = 6). A guinea pig serum

Peanut (Arachis Hypogaea) Oil is the refined fixed oil obtained from the seed kernels of Arachis hypogaea. Hydrogenated Peanut Oil, Peanut Acid, and Peanut Glycerides are all derived from Peanut Oil. Peanut Flour is a powder obtained by the grinding of peanuts. The oils and glycerides function in

Vaccination is the most effective technique suggested now days for allergy treatment. Recombinant-based approaches are mostly focused on genetic modification of allergens to produce molecules with reduced allergenic activity and conserved antigenicity. The molecules developed for vaccination in

BACKGROUND The consumption of cooking oils may exacerbate some allergic diseases. In the present study, the effects of naturally oxidized olive oil on immediate- and/or delayed-type allergic reactions were investigated in BALB/c mice. METHODS Mouse models of 3 types of allergic reactions: contact
