Antiasthma Drugs: Mast Cell Stabilizers and Anti-IgE Drugs

310
Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition for which new therapeutic avenues, including anti-inflammatory drugs like mast cell stabilizers and anti-IgE treatments, continue to be developed.
Mast cell stabilizers, such as cromolyn (also known as sodium cromoglycate) and nedocromil (Tilade), are effective drugs in asthma management. These stabilizers hinder histamine release by skillfully obstructing the activation of mast cells and other cellular entities. Notably, they navigate this task without...

Hypersensitivities

689
Hypersensitivity, also known as a hypersensitivity reaction or allergic reaction, is a condition where the body's immune system reacts abnormally to a foreign substance. Such substances, that cause hypersensitivity are referred to as an allergen, could be something typically harmless to most people, like pollen or certain foods.
Types of Hypersensitivities
Hypersensitivity reactions are categorized into four types: Type 1, Type 2, Type 3, and Type 4. Each type has a distinct mechanism...

Antiasthma Drugs: Inhaled Corticosteroids and Glucocorticoids

273
Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are anti-inflammatory drugs used primarily in treating persistent asthma and providing long-term maintenance. They target the bronchial mucosa, the lining of the airways, to control inflammation, a critical factor in asthma progression and exacerbation.
ICS work through a multifaceted mechanism of action. They suppress the inflammatory response caused by the proliferation of TH cells. They also reduce the transcription of the IL-2 gene, which is involved in the...

Area of Science:

  • Immunology and Allergy
  • Clinical Practice Guidelines

Background:

  • Allergen immunotherapy (AIT) is a crucial treatment for allergic diseases, inducing tolerance to allergens.
  • Growing discovery of AIT candidates and new therapeutic approaches necessitate updated practice guidelines.
  • This guideline updates the 2010 Korean Academy of Asthma Allergy and Clinical Immunology recommendations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide updated expert recommendations for allergen immunotherapy (AIT).
  • To establish uniform practice guidelines for AIT based on an extensive literature review.
  • To address key aspects of AIT, including mechanisms, efficacy, and patient management.

Main Methods:

  • Expert opinion from specialists in allergy, pediatrics, and otorhinolaryngology.
  • Comprehensive literature review of existing AIT research and guidelines.
  • Development of updated recommendations for clinical AIT practice.

Main Results:

  • The guideline covers essential AIT knowledge: mechanisms, clinical efficacy, patient selection, allergen extract selection, dosing, and adverse reaction management.
  • Special considerations for pediatric AIT are included.
  • Sublingual immunotherapy guidelines will be detailed in a separate publication.

Conclusions:

  • Updated guidelines are essential for the consistent and effective application of AIT.
  • These recommendations aim to standardize AIT practices for various allergic conditions.
  • The guideline provides a comprehensive resource for clinicians managing patients undergoing AIT.
