...Maria Basagaña; Borja Bartolome; Carlos Pastor-Vargas; Lars Mattsson; Jonas Lidholm; Moises Labrador-Horrillo Background: The existence of IgE binding to dog dander extract without IgE antibodies against the described dog allergens (Can f 1, 2, 3 and 4) implies the presence of other dog allergens...

..., p = 0.006). Exclusive breast-feeding over 2 months elevated the risk of eczema at the ages of 2 (OR 1.73; 95% CI 1.15–2.61, p = 0.009) and 5 (OR 1.51; 95% CI 1.03–2.23, p = 0.036). Cat or dog exposure at 0–2 years and at 0–5 years protected against IgE sensitization until 5 years of age (OR 0.60; 95...

...Thomas A.E. Platts-Mills; Richard Sporik; J.M. Ingram; R. Honsinger A survey of the Middle School in Los Alamos, N.M., USA, identified 57 children with symptoms of asthma and 54 controls. Among these children, sensitization to cat and dog allergens was very strongly associated with bronchial...

...Alain L. de Weck; Peter Mayer; Barbara Stumper; Brigitte Schiessl; Louise Pickart Experimental sensitization in dogs has revealed that the capacity to produce high levels of IgE against a variety of allergens (high IgE responders), an essential characteristic of the atopic state, is a genetic trait...

...A.L. de Weck Several animal species, in particular dogs, cats and horses spontaneously develop IgE-mediated allergic diseases. They can also be experimentally sensitized. Comparative veterinary allergology is increasingly providing valuable information in allergy research. 4 9 2009 ©...

...: Thirty-two Beagle dogs from seven litters selectively bred for their high IgE response were sensitized by subcutaneous injection of chicken ovalbumin (OVA), peanut extract and recombinant birch pollen allergen (Bet v 1). In half of the dogs from each litter, sensitization injections were started...
