[Relationship specific IgE and IgG4 antibody to food allergen and other allergic factors in 0-year old allergic children].
We investigated the relation IgE and IgG4 antibody to food allergen and other allergic factors in 94 0-year old allergic children. And then, we compared this result data with the data of allergic children over 2-years old reported before. In 0-year old children, IgE antibody to food allergen and IgE RAST score to egg white were related more tightly to IgE RIST. And the tightness of these factors was 4 times as strong as those in allergic children over 2-year old. This fact was suggested the polyclonal production and induction of IgE antibody in infant children. And IgG4 antibody to food allergen was related tightly to eosinophil counts in 0-year old allergic children. The tightness of 2 factors was about 2 times as strong as those in allergic children over 2-years old. The fact was suggested the necessity of investigation of relationship between 2 factors.
