45 patients, hypersensitive to house-dust mites, were examined by the method of skin tests to D. pteronyssinus allergen. Besides, in their blood sera the levels of allergen-specific IgE antibodies were determined in the radioallergosorbent test and allergen-specific IgG antibodies, in the enzyme immunoassay. These tests revealed that in 91% of the patients the results of skin tests were positive, in 68% an elevated level of specific IgE antibodies and in 93% of the patients an elevated level of specific IgG antibodies were detected. All patients showed the positive result in one of the above-mentioned tests. The largest group of the patients (55%) included persons showing the positive result of the skin test and having elevated levels of allergen-specific IgG and IgE antibodies. Thus, in cases of hypersensitivity to house-dust mites the levels of allergen-specific IgG and IgE antibodies in the patients' blood sera should be determined.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D008925 Mites Any arthropod of the subclass ACARI except the TICKS. They are minute animals related to the spiders, usually having transparent or semitransparent bodies. They may be parasitic on humans and domestic animals, producing various irritations of the skin (MITE INFESTATIONS). Many mite species are important to human and veterinary medicine as both parasite and vector. Mites also infest plants. Acarus,Mite
