The influence of host immunity on infection and on modulating its clinical course remains uncertain. Infection in some hosts may be short lived and spontaneously self-limited, while in others it may result in prolonged debilitating illness. Though specific antibody msponse occurs in the ho...

Serum immunoglobulin E levels predict human airway reactivity in vitro.

BACKGROUND Airway hyperresponsiveness to non-specific stimuli is one characteristic feature of airway diseases such as bronchial asthma and chronic bronchitis. Until now, studies aiming to demonstrate a relationship between in vivo conditions associated with airway hyperreactivity and in vitro airway responsiveness have been inconclusive. OBJECTIVE Since serum immunoglobulin (Ig) E is believe...
