Are Primary Immune Responses Involved in Allergic Reactions?

Allergic reactions are an overreaction of the immune system to a foreign substance, such as pollen or pet dander. While allergies are traditionally considered to be a secondary immune response, research in the past few years has indicated that primary immune responses may also be involved in allergic reactions. To begin with, recent research suggests that the body’s initial immune response to allergens may be a primary response. In a study published in 2019, researchers applied a nasal allergen to a group of participants and observed the resulting immune responses. The researchers found that the body’s first immune response was a primary response, including the release of cytokines and other immune cells. This indicates that a primary immune reaction may be an early stage of an allergic reaction. In addition, research indicates that the body’s primary immune response can have an effect on subsequent allergic reactions. A study published in 2020 found that when a primary immune response is activated, it can lead to the production of IgE antibodies. These antibodies can then cause an allergic reaction when the allergen is encountered again. This indicates that in some cases. Cont…
