Ancient antibody molecule offers clues to how humans evolved allergies
Scientists funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) have discovered how evolution may have lumbered humans with allergy problems. view more (2008-06-13)
Early exposure to other children lowers adult risk of hay fever but increases risk of asthma
Children who live with several siblings or who go to nurseries have less hay fever, but more asthma as adults, suggests a large international study in Thorax. The findings are based on interviews with over 18,500 adults aged 20 to 44 from 36 countries in Europe, the USA, Australia and New Zealand. Blood samples were also taken from over 13,000... view more... (2002-10-25)
'Allergy cells' can aggravate cancer and psoriasis
The body's mast cells are mainly associated with allergic reaction in the way they release histamine and other inflammatory substances. view more (2006-09-11)
Canberra parents lack allergy awareness: Study
Nearly four per cent of ACT kindergarten children have a peanut allergy and while the region's schools are well prepared to cope with this, some parents are taking inappropriate action when dealing with their child's allergy, according to a new study. view more (2009-03-17)
Children with peanut allergy worry more about their condition than children with diabetes
Research at the University of Southampton suggests children with peanut allergy have a worse quality of life that those living with diabetes, and that they worry more about the potentially life threatening implications of their condition. In a study involving 40 nine and ten years old, half with peanut allergy, half with insulin-dependent diabetes... view more... (2003-11-05)
Allergic reactions to gadolinium-based contrast agents are rare, study finds
Allergic-like reactions to gadolinium-containing contrast injections in adults and pediatric patients (those younger than 19 years of age) are rare, according to a recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Michigan Health Systems in Ann Arbor. view more (2007-12-28)
House dust may protect against allergic disease early in life
Endotoxin, a toxic substance made by certain types of bacteria, may reduce the risk of developing the allergic skin condition eczema or wheezing in children if they are exposed to it up to age 3. view more (2007-05-21)
Tobacco Smoke Linked to Allergic Rhinitis in Infants
University of Cincinnati (UC) epidemiologists say it's environmental tobacco smoke-not the suspected visible mold-that drastically increases an infant's risk for developing allergic rhinitis by age 1. view more (2006-05-18)
Allergy season: Cigarettes to the rescue?
Everyone knows that smoking can kill you, but did you know that it may help with your allergies? A new study shows that cigarette smoke can prevent allergies by decreasing the reaction of immune cells to allergens. view more (2009-05-15)
Anti-allergic mattress covers have no clinical benefit in patients with moderate to severe asthma
The use of anti-allergic mattress covers shows no clinical improvement in patients with moderate to severe asthma, who already use regular treatment. However, they do reduce the exposition of house dust mite during the night, shows research in Thorax. Thirty non-smoking patients with asthma and house dust mite allergy were included in the study.... view more... (2002-08-27)
Evidence of estrogen and progesterone hormone allergy has been discovered by Texas researchers
Some women with menstrual cycle disorders like asthma and migraine headaches may be experiencing allergies to their own estrogen and progesterone hormones, Texas researchers have discovered. view more (2006-03-31)
Scientists puzzled by severe allergic reaction to cancer drug in the middle Southern US
A patient's expectations about the side effects of chemotherapy usually focus on nausea, hair loss, fatigue and other side effects. Worries about severe allergic reactions to their therapy is usually not a concern. view more (2007-08-21)
Fight against hay fever and other allergies helped by new immune system discovery
A mechanism which can lead to hay fever and other allergic reactions, by preventing the immune system from regulating itself properly, has been discovered by scientists. view more (2007-12-27)
Preventing allergies
Allergic diseases are becoming increasingly common in Western industrialized countries. As there is still no etiologically based treatment of allergic asthma, hay fever, or atopic eczema, the prevention of these diseases is a matter of special importance. view more (2009-10-07)
Research Finds Allergic Children Exposed to Peanuts at Younger and Younger Ages Despite Recommendations To Avoid Until Age 3
The age at which children are exposed to peanuts and have an allergic response has dropped significantly over the last decade, despite recommendations that at-risk families avoid exposing children to peanuts during the first three years of life. view more (2007-12-05)
Potential New Therapeutic Target for Asthma, Allergies and Cancer
Virginia Commonwealth University researchers have identified how a bioactive molecule involved with allergy, inflammation and cancer is transported out of mast cells, according to findings published online this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. view more (2006-10-18)
Bleach Found to Neutralize Mold Allergens
Researchers at National Jewish Medical and Research Center have demonstrated that dilute bleach not only kills common household mold, but may also neutralize the mold allergens that cause most mold-related health complaints. view more (2005-09-26)
Protein a possible key to allergy and asthma control
Activating a protein found on some immune cells seems to halt the cells' typical job of spewing out substances that launch allergic reactions, a study by Johns Hopkins researchers suggests. The findings could eventually lead to new treatments for allergic reactions ranging from annoying bouts of hay fever to deadly asthma attacks. view more (2008-01-03)

New data analysis shows possible link between childhood obesity and allergies
A new study indicates there may be yet another reason to reduce childhood obesity - it may help prevent allergies. The study published in the May issue of the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology showed that obese children and adolescents are at increased risk of having some kind of allergy, especially to a food. view more (2009-05-05)
