Answer:

Allergic disorders, such as anaphylaxis, hay fever, eczema and asthma, now afflict roughly 25% of people in the developed world. In allergic subjects, persistent or repetitive exposure to allergens, which typically are intrinsically innocuous substances common in the environment, results in chronic allergic inflammation. This in turn produces long-term changes in the structure of the affected organs and substantial abnormalities in their function. It is therefore important to understand the characteristics and consequences of acute and chronic allergic inflammation, and in particular to explore how mast cells can contribute to several features of this maladaptive pattern of immunological reactivity.The term ‘allergy’ was coined by Clemens von Pirquet in 1906 to call attention to the unusual propensity of some individuals to develop signs and symptoms of reactivity, or ‘hypersensitivity reactions’, when exposed to certain substances1 Although the statement quoted above pertained to the cause of serum sickness2, allergic disorders (also known as atopic disorders, from the Greek atopos, meaning out of place) are also associated with the production of allergen-specific IgE and with the expansion of allergen-specific T-cell populations, both of which are reactive with what typically are otherwise harmless environmental substances. These disorders are increasingly prevalent in the developed world and include allergic rhinitis (also known as hay fever), atopic dermatitis (also known as eczema), allergic (or atopic) asthma and some food allergies3–5. Some people develop a potentially fatal systemic allergic reaction, termed anaphylaxis, within seconds or minutes of exposure to allergens6.
