Isolation and characterization of the 68 kD allergen from house dust mite Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus
House dust mites (HDM) represent a major source of allergens, contributing to the increasing incidence of type I hypersensitivity disease worldwide. Over 30 different IgE-binding proteins from the HDM extract were detected. Although group 1 and 2 have been identified as major allergens, due to the safety and efficacy of allergy diagnosis and immunotherapy, there is a need to carefully evaluate ...
متن کاملThe house dust mite Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus is the most important allergen on the island of Mauritius.
To determine the relative importance of mites as a cause of allergic sensitivity and asthma on the western Indian Ocean island of Mauritius, we measured specific IgE antibodies to common inhalant allergens in sera from Mauritians claiming to have allergic symptoms and we examined house dust samples for evidence of mites and their allergens. Seventy-two of the 110 sera tested (65%) contained det...
متن کاملPheromonal Communication in the European House Dust Mite, Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus
Despite the sanitary importance of the European house dust mite Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (Trouessart, 1897), the pheromonal communication in this species has not been sufficiently studied. Headspace analysis using solid phase micro extraction (SPME) revealed that nerol, neryl formate, pentadecane, (6Z,9Z)-6,9-heptadecadiene, and (Z)-8-heptadecene are released by both sexes whereas neryl p...
متن کاملActivated Charcoal Suppresses Breeding of the House Dust Mite, Dermatophagoides Pteronyssinus, in Culture
House dust mite sensitized asthmatics are advised to practice allergen avoidance. Charcoal pillows are used in Korea with unsubstantiated claims regarding their efficacy in alleviating asthma symptoms. We tested the effects of activated charcoal on breeding of house dust mites in culture. Twenty live adult house dust mites (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus) were inoculated, 10 replicates, on cult...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, the European House Dust Mite
Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus is the European dust mite and a major source of human allergens. Here, we present the first draft genome sequence of the mite, as well as the ab initio gene prediction and functional analyses that will facilitate comparative genomic analyses with other mite species.
