Klimawandel und Gesundheit: Was Sie in der Hausarztpraxis wissen müssen und tun können

Die Folgen des Klimwandels haben einen direkten Einfluss auf die Primärversorgung in Deutschland: Hitzeschutz insbesondere bei älteren Patienten, die Zunahme von Infektionen und die Verlängerung der Allergiesesaison spielen medizinisch eine bedeutsame Rolle. Aber auch in der Prävention und der Aufklärung der Patienten kommt den Hausärztinnen und -ärzten eine besondere Rolle zu. Direkt aus der Praxis berichtet im Live-Webinar am 13. Mai von 18 bis 19 Uhr unser Experte Dr. med. Robin Maitra.

Abstract

Purpose of Review

Encouraging results from recent food allergen immunotherapy clinical trials indicate that the immune system plays an essential role in peripheral tolerance to food allergen. Thus, the monitoring of changes in immune responses and their possible correlation with clinical outcome in allergic patients receiving immunotherapies could theoretically serve as surrogate markers and be harnessed as rationale for food allergen immunotherapy development.

Recent Findings

A shift towards antigen specificity in recent assays has provided a solid foundation for the elucidation of cellular mechanisms involved in food allergen immunotherapy as well as the tracking of allergen-specific immune cells.

Summary

In this review, we overview the current challenges and technologies used in immune monitoring during immunotherapy in allergic patients with a focus on cell-mediated immunity. We also discuss critical steps involved in some of the cellular immune assays utilized in clinical trials.
