Serum specific IgE reactivity to recombinant Der f 11 in asthmatic children.
Journal of Asthma 2001 August
This study was designed to examine the prevalence of positive serum IgE reactivity to the recombinant group 11 Dermatophagoides farinae allergen (rDer f 11) in asthmatic children in Taiwan. Using immunoblot analysis in a preliminary study of 18 asthmatic children, 13 (72.2%) reacted positively to rDer f 11 and 16 (88.9%) showed positive reactivity to D. farinae extracts. The allergenicity of rDer f 11 was further evaluated with in vivo skin tests and in vitro IgE immunodot assays in 24 mite skin-test-positive asthmatic children. Whereas 17 (70.8%) had positive skin tests to rDer f 11, 18 (75.0%) had positive serum IgE reactivity to rDer f 11. A good coincidence (87.5%) between the immunodot assay and the skin test was confirmed in these asthmatic children. Moreover, the prevalence of serum IgE reactivity to rDer f 11 was further investigated in a large panel of 49 mite skin-test-positive asthmatic children. Again, 38 (77.6%) had positive serum IgE reactivity to rDer f 11 in immunodot assays. Taken together the positive IgE reactivity to rDer f 11 in immunodot analysis ranged from 75 to 77.6% in two groups of 73 mite skin-test-positive asthmatic children. High incidence of serum IgE antibodies specific for rDer f 11 in the present study suggests that Der f 11 is a novel major allergen of house dust mites.
