Immunologic histamine release from isolated human basophils during specific immunotherapy.
Anti-IgE- and antigen-induced histamine release from basophils isolated from 20 atopic patients sensitive to grass pollen allergens was evaluated. The studies were made before and after short-term immunotherapy with Pollinex. It was shown, that after hyposensitization a significant decrease on anti-IgE and specific antigen-induced histamine release from basophils occurs.
