Intestinal immunology and food allergy by Alain L. de Weck( Book )

13 editions published in 1995 in English and held by 115 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Coverage begins with reviews of the ontogeny of the mucosal immune system, the uptake and transport of macromolecules by the intestine, and the interactions of the nervous system with gastrointestinal mast cells. The book then examines the physicochemical characteristics of food allergens, the clinical manifestations of food hypersensitivity, and the major predictors of the risk of food allergy. Close attention is given to current diagnostic tests for food allergy, including double-blind food challenges and laboratory tests. Other contributors review the normal development of oral tolerance and describe methods for inducing oral and systemic tolerance

Allergic Reactions to Drugs by Alain L. de Weck( )

1 edition published in 1983 in English and held by 60 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

According to most studies, allergic reactions represent 35%-50% of all untoward reactions to drugs, yet the pharmacological literature concerning the clinical aspects, diagnosis, and pathophysiological mechanisms of drug allergy is markedly less extensive than reports dealing with the toxicological or pharmacological effects of drugs. The main reasons for this state of affairs may be on the one hand that until a few years ago the pathophysiological mechanisms of the various types of allergic reactions were not well understood, and on the other hand that objective diagnosis of a drug allergy is still fraught with serious difficulties. Drug allergy is still an unpopular topic for most allergologists and pharmacologists; this is reflected by the fact that despite their frequency, allergic reactions to drugs still occupy a relatively small proportion of space in most pharmacology handbooks and in classical books devoted to the side effects of drugs. There has recently been considerable progress in research into the immunologi cal and pathophysiological events occurring in allergic reactions, and on that basis investigations of various drug allergies have also yield~d new objective findings. Consequently, it was natural to attempt a review of the most frequent and important drug allergies in the form of a handbook. We originally intended to present a comprehensive review of all drug allergies, but the realization of this goal soon became more difficult than we had at first imagined
