[Research progress on the intrinsic relationship and mechanism between respiratory allergies and skin allergies]

Allergic disease is a systemic disease that affects multiple systems. Respiratory tract and skin are the most frequently involved organs of allergies, which include allergic rhinitis, asthma, acute and chronic urticaria, atopic dermatitis, etc.. They are closely correlated clinically. Respiratory allergies and skin allergies often occur in one patient in the form of synchronous occurrence, synchronous aggravation or mutual transfer of symptoms, and early atopic dermatitis in infants is an independent risk factor of respiratory allergy. Type Ⅰ hypersensitivity is the most common immunologic mechanism of respiratory and skin allergies, which are mediated by allergens induction, multiple immune cells and inflammatory cells involvement, and IgE medicated mast cell degranulation. This present article provides a brief review on the epidemiology, tissue origin, and pathogenesis of respiratory airway allergy and skin allergy, in order to provide new ideas and reference basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment and the development of allergic disease prevention strategies.
