Researchers demonstrate potential mechanism of food allergy
Researchers have identified one of the proteins that may be responsible for causing food allergies, which could lead to the development of more accurate non-invasive tests to identify true food allergies. view more (2006-07-24)
Self-Hypnosis Was Found To Be Effective On Hay Fever Symptoms
A group of researchers of the University of Basel has performed a randomized controlled trial on the use of self-hypnosis (which was likely to induce relaxation) on a hay fever symptoms. Many people suffer from hay fever symptoms. Hypnosis has proved to be a useful adjunct in the treatment of conditions where allergic phenomena have an important... view more... (2005-04-21)
First analysis of FDA's mifepristone adverse event reports
The abortion drug mifepristone (Mifeprex,TM RU-486), initially touted as a more convenient alternative to surgical abortion, has been linked to serious adverse reactions, including several deaths in otherwise healthy women. view more (2005-12-29)
Scientists move closer to developing a new class of asthma and allergy drugs
A team of Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) funded scientists has moved a step closer to developing a new class of effective asthma and allergy drugs. view more (2008-02-15)
Long-term bouts with hay fever worsen ability to breathe through your nose
New evidence for the first time suggests that people suffering from hay fever (allergic rhinitis) will over time experience a progressive worsening of their nasal passage functioning, depending on how long they have the disorder, according to a new study published in the June 2008 edition of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery. view more (2008-06-02)

Patients with allergic rhinitis, such as that caused by hay fever and other allergies, have more difficulty sleeping and more sleep disorders than those without allergies. view more (2006-09-19)
Halting histamine action means hallelujah for hay fever sufferers
In allergic diseases such as asthma, hay fever, and rhinitis an allergen stimulates the release of antibodies that attach themselves to mast cells causing these cells to release histamine, which can cause symptoms like itching of the nose, skin and eyes, sneezing, and wheezing. view more (2006-05-05)

Some allergic conditions could increase your risk of suffering from blood cancer as an adult, according to a new study published this week in BMC Public Health. This is important news for the increasingly large numbers of allergy sufferers worldwide. view more (2004-11-03)
A site for sore eyes: New target for allergies found under the eyelid
Scientists have found a protein in the eye which plays a critical role in how an allergic response develops over a 24-hour period. The University College London (UCL) team hope their discovery will pave the way for new treatments for allergic diseases such as asthma, eczema and hay fever. view more (2005-01-11)
Scientists identify new role for lung epithelial cells in sensing allergens in the air
Researchers at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, and at Ghent University in Ghent, Belgium, have identified a new role for certain lung cells in the immune response to airborne allergens. view more (2009-03-31)
First-born babies' higher asthma and allergy rates due to pregnancy conditions
First-born children are at higher risk of developing asthma and allergy because of different conditions they experience in the uterus, according to new research from the Isle of Wight in the United Kingdom, which will be presented at the American Thoracic Society's 2008 International Conference in Toronto on Wednesday, May 21. view more (2008-05-20)
Of Mice and Peanuts: A new mouse model for peanut allergy
Chicago researchers report the development of a new mouse model for food allergy that mimics symptoms generated during a human allergic reaction to peanuts. view more (2009-01-13)
Stressed intestine can give rise to food allergy
The intestines of mice which have been subjected to stress, overreact to certain nutritional substances. PhD biologist Annette van Kalkeren from the University of Amsterdam has investigated the relationship between stress and the occurrence of food allergies and various intestinal disorders. The biologist investigated the reaction of pieces of... view more... (2002-04-18)
Anthroposophic lifestyle reduces risk of allergic disease in children
Certain features of the anthroposophic lifestyle, such as restrictive use of antibiotics and fever antipyretics, reduce the risk of allergic disease in children, according to a new study. view more (2006-01-11)
Hydrolysed infant formula prevents childhood allergies in high risk children
Although breast-feeding is recommended to mothers as being the healthiest way to feed babies, it is not always possible. New evidence from a Cochrane review concludes that where exclusive breast-feeding is not possible for an infant, hydrolysed protein formulae in high-risk infants help prevent childhood allergies. Many young children who develop... view more... (2003-11-20)
Homoeopathy is not an effective treatment for asthma
Homoeopathic remedies are no better than placebo for the treatment of asthmatic patients who are allergic to house dust mite, but there is a difference in response between homoeopathy and placebo, concludes a study in this week's BMJ. The research team identified 242 asthmatic people allergic to house dust mite. Participants received either... view more... (2002-02-27)

Children who are exposed to cats soon after birth may have an increased risk of developing eczema. view more (2006-05-22)
Researchers identify a protein that could banish allergies
The suffering of millions of people with allergies could one day be eased thanks to new research from UK investigators. Findings from the University College London branch of the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research (LICR), published in this week's Nature, detail how inactivating a key signalling molecule called p110delta reduced the effect of... view more...

Study reveals dramatic rise in allergic diseases
Dramatic increases in admissions to hospital for allergic diseases have occurred in England over the last decade, finds a study in this week's BMJ. Researchers in London used national hospital discharge statistics from 1990-1 to 2000-1 to identify trends in admissions for four allergic conditions (anaphylaxis, angio-oedema, food allergy, and... view more...
