Background
Allergy can be diagnosed using basophil tests. Several methods measuring basophil activation are available. This study aimed at comparing basophil activation test (BAT), histamine release assay (HR), and passive sensitization histamine release assay (passive HR) in the diagnosis of peanut allergy.
Methods
BAT, HR, and passive HR were performed on 11 peanut‐allergic and 14 nonallergic...
Background
The pathology of allergic diseases involves type 2 immune cells, such as Th2, ILC2, and basophils exerting their effect by production of IL‐4, IL‐5, and IL‐13.
