BACKGROUND Some second-generation antihistamines have anti-inflammatory activities, but the clinical relevance of this property is still unclear. OBJECTIVE The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of azelastine when administered during the early-phase reaction. METHODS This investigation

BACKGROUND The ultra-short course pre-seasonal allergy vaccine, containing appropriate allergoids with the adjuvant monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL), may be effective in treating allergic symptoms. OBJECTIVE To explore the timing of the immunological responses to the pre-seasonal allergy

OBJECTIVE The ultra-short course preseasonal allergy vaccine, containing the adjuvant monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL), is effective in treating allergic symptoms; however, the efficacy in controlling asthmatics symptoms has not been fully demonstrated. We aimed at evaluating whether the ultra-short

The allergic rhinitis (AR) is an important risk factor for the development of asthma. In significant number of patients with AR, the non-specific bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) could be demonstrated. It has been anticipated that these patients were at the greater risk for asthma. This study was

Chemokines are cytokines with chemotactic properties on leukocyte subsets whose modulation plays a key role in allergic inflammatory processes. To better understand the possible anti-inflammatory effects of histamine-1 receptor antagonists in allergic asthma, we studied the mRNA expression of a set
