We carried out sequential measurements of the intensity of simultaneously occurring late onset skin and bronchial reactivity in seven atopic subjects following skin and inhalation challenge with pollen antigen. All subjects demonstrated dual bronchial and cutaneous reactions. Although the intensity of the late onset bronchial responses correlated temporally and quantitatively with the degree of increase in serum neutrophil chemotactic activity, the intensity of the late onset skin responses correlated with the level of specific antigen-IgE in the serum. This suggests that even in the same subjects, different factors govern the intensity of late onset skin and bronchial responses.

D011852 Radioallergosorbent Test An in vitro allergen radioimmunoassay in which allergens are coupled to an immunosorbent. The coupled allergens bind the IgE in the sera of patients which in turn binds radioisotope-labeled anti-IMMUNOGLOBULIN E antibodies.

D001985 Bronchial Provocation Tests Tests involving inhalation of allergens (nebulized or in dust form), nebulized pharmacologically active solutions (e.g., histamine, methacholine), or control solutions, followed by assessment of respiratory function. These tests are used in the diagnosis of asthma.
