Immune System (Desensitization via Exposure to Phleum pratense Allergens)

Molecular classification
Allergen, Immune system
01

Overview

Desensitization to Phleum pratense allergens involves modulating the immune system's response to these allergens. It aims to shift the immune response from an IgE-mediated allergic reaction toward a more tolerogenic state. Key allergenic components include Phl p 1, Phl p 2, Phl p 4, Phl p 5, and Phl p 6. Immunotherapy leads to increased IgG4 antibodies and reduced immediate hypersensitivity. Administration can be via sublingual or subcutaneous routes, with the goal of reducing hay fever and asthma symptoms associated with grass pollen allergy.
