Receptor multispecificity and similarities between the immune system, the sense of smell, and the nervous system from the standpoint of clinical allergology.
A discussion of possible future trends in the application of allergology to clinical practice is presented. Using the implications of antibody multispecificity as a basis, we compare the immune system and the sense of smell and examine the similarities between the immune system and the nervous system.
