Synopses & Reviews This book extends investigative studies of allergic disease pathogenesis through a biological and environmental interaction approach - from historical grounding to genetic-nongenetic allergen identification in asthma and allergy development. Book News Annotation: A summary of the genetics of asthma and allergies which provides the
information needed for performing investigative studies to understand
the basis of these conditions and develop new methods for managing
them. A brief historical perspective on allergies and asthma is
followed by 14 chapters addressing human genetics; tools for the
study of genetics; regulation of IgE production and the development
of allergic responses in different organs; clinical methods to study
the immune system in asthma and allergy; genetic studies of asthma
and allergy; the epidemiology of asthma; risk factors for
sensitization and development of allergic diseases; specific immune
responses to purified allergens; regulation of IgE synthesis in vitro
and in vivo; inflammation; ventilation, dynamics, and gas exchange;
bronchial hyperresponsiveness and regulation of total serum IgE
levels; and the genetics of asthma, allergy, and related conditions.
