title: A new pair of surface molecules involved in human IgE regulation.
abstract: The molecules controlling IgE production are the subject of intense study in the effort to find new ways to treat allergic diseases. One candidate, the CD23 molecule, a low affinity receptor for IgE, was recently identified to interact with another molecule, named CD21, in the regulation of IgE production.
