HLA class I-restricted oligoclonal CD8 cytotoxic T-cell responses occur at the tissue level in SJS/TEN. Cytotoxic T cells are the T effector cells that result in keratinocyte apoptosis (cell death) mediated by T effector molecules granzyme B, perforin, granulysin, gamma interferon, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and lipocalin-2. The clinical hallmarks of SJS/TEN include fever, ≥2 mucosal involvements (ocular, oral, and genital), and positive Nikolsky sign with epidermal detachment. Systematic reviews on immunomodulatory treatments remain limited by the paucity of randomized controlled trials, heterogeneity of studies, and non-standardization of outcome measures. Preventive HLA genotype screening before the prescription of carbamazepine and allopurinol may further reduce the incidence of SJS/TEN. The role of immunomodulatory treatments in SJS/TEN is at present not supported by robust evidence from systematic reviews given the lack of randomized controlled trials.

Taking together clinical, genetic, lifestyle, and information on relevant biomarkers, the therapy of diseases can be personalized to an individual. Several novel biomarkers have been recently reported for allergic diseases. However, to interpret the validity of biomarker data, the validation of their reliability, precision, and reproducibility is imperative. Once validated, they can be used in therapeutic product development and in clinical practice. Eosinophils are multifunctional leukocytes and major effector cells that play a crucial role in the immunological mechanisms of allergic disease. Measuring eosinophils has been the gold standard for treating and monitoring eosinophil-related diseases such as asthma, atopic dermatitis, and allergic rhinitis. However, eosinophil numbers/percentages yield little information about eosinophil activity. Eosinophil activation leads to the extracellular release of 4 granule proteins, with the most promising biomarker of the 4 being eosinophil-derived neurotoxin (EDN). EDN is more easily recovered from measuring instruments and cell surfaces than other eosinophil biomarkers because of its weaker electrical charge. EDN is known to be released from eosinophils at a greater efficiency, adding to its recoverability. It also has antiviral activity in respiratory infections associated with allergic disease development in early life (eg, respiratory syncytial virus and human rhinovirus infections in early childhood). EDN can be measured in several body fluids, including blood, urine, sputum, nasal secretions, and bronchoalveolar lavage. EDN is a stable biomarker utilized to precisely diagnose, treat, and monitor many eosinophil-related allergic diseases. This eosinophil granule protein may prove useful in precision medicine approaches and should always be considered as a useful tool for the clinician to give the best patient care possible.</p>","PeriodicalId":8488,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Allergy","volume":"13 2","pages":"66-71"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/fb/dc/pa9-13-66.PMC10287111.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9729663","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, hospital stays were longer in the bronchiolitis group than in the control group. Respiratory syncytial virus was the most detected virus (23/26, 88.6%) in the bronchiolitis group. Male sex (odds ratio [OR], 5.71; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.02-16.12; <i>P</i> < 0.001), antibiotic usage during pregnancy (OR, 27.2; 95% CI, 1.12-660.84; <i>P</i> = 0.04), and viral infection (OR, 49.3; 95% CI, 9.01-270.26; <i>P</i> < 0.001) during the postnatal period were significantly associated with hospitalization for acute bronchiolitis in the infants. By contrast, pet exposure during the perinatal period was significantly and negatively associated with acute bronchiolitis (OR = 0.21, 95% CI = 0.07-0.69, <i>P</i> < 0.01).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Environmental exposures during pregnancy may affect respiratory health in offspring, and effective strategies should be developed to prevent bronchiolitis in early life.</p>","PeriodicalId":8488,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Allergy","volume":"13 1","pages":"10-14"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/82/df/pa9-13-10.PMC10166242.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9738086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
