This allowed us to produce a text that found a unique niche between the more heavily referenced books and the more superficial guides. In this edition, the reader was introduced to the individual cells and mediators that participate in the allergic response and this information was then built on to describe the histopathological features, diagnoses and treatment of allergic responses occurring in all major organs. When preparing the second edition, we took note of the feedback of many clinicians who asked us if we could put primary emphasis on the clinical mani- festations of allergy and augment this with a solid scientific background. We kept this format for the third edition. This format has appeared to be very successful with our readers, so much so that it was awarded ‘Book of the Year’ prize by the British Medical Association. Now, 19 years after the original Allergy we are at the fourth edition with two new editors. Dr Lawrence Lichtenstein has retired and we welcome Dr David Broide and Dr Fernando Martinez to the editorial team. We have also updated the format slightly by emphasising the clinical aspects while reducing the cellular science to a single chapter introducing mechanisms of allergic disease. Further- more, two new chapters have been added, one on eosinophilia, including eosi- nophilic oesophagitis and the other on systemic mastocytosis. One thing that has not changed is our policy of inviting international authorities, often two or more authors from different countries, to work together to produce their sections. Although this approach is not without its logistical problems, we believe it has produced a more authoritative text and we thank all the authors for their forbearance. Indeed, we owe a great debt of gratitude to the many experts who have contributed such informative chapters. As readers, we hope that you will appreciate the fourth edition of Allergy and that you find its content enjoyable and educative to read. As we requested in the first three editions, please give us your feedback on the book so that we can refine it even further in the future.

The key components of a well- allergic disorders. functioning immune system include the ability to generate both innate and adaptive immune responses (Fig. 1.1). The innate immune system comprises cellular elements that are both resident in tissues (i.e. epithelium, macro- phages, mast cells) for a rapid response and circulating leukocytes that are recruited from the blood stream (neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, mono- nuclear cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and NK T cells). In addition to the cellular response the innate immune system has humoral elements (comple- ment, antimicrobial peptides, mannose-binding lectin), which provides a mechanism for an immediate response to infection that is not antigen specific and does not have immunological memory. In contrast, the adaptive immune response generated by its component T and B cells is slower to respond to infections (taking days) but has the advantage of exhibiting antigen specificity and immunological memory. A malfunctioning immune system may lead not only to immunodeficiency with recurrent infections, but also to autoimmu- nity and allergic diseases. In this chapter, we focus on the cellular and molecular mechanisms through which an aberrant immune response to low levels of otherwise innocuous and ubiquitous environmental exposures such as airborne grass pollens or ingested foods may trigger a range of allergic responses from chronic symptoms affecting quality of life to acute severe allergic reactions that are life threatening. Overview of the allergic immune response Allergic diseases such as allergic rhinitis, asthma, and food allergy are char- acterized by the ability to make an IgE antibody response to an environmental allergen. There is both a strong genetic (see Ch. 2) as well as environmental contribution to the development of allergic disease (see Chs 3 and 4). Immu- noglobulin E (IgE)-mediated allergic responses most frequently occur on mucosal (nose, conjunctiva, airway, gastrointestinal tract) or skin surfaces as these anatomical sites contain high levels of mast cells to which IgE is affixed. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd DOI: 10.1016/B978-0-7234-3658-4.00005-6 11 1 Introduction to mechanisms of allergic disease Anatomical and Innate immunity Adaptive immunity physiological barriers Natural Neutrophils killer cells Natural Eosinophils Cellular killer T cells Cellular Intact skin Macrophages Mast cells B cells T cells Dendritic cells Ciliary clearance Mannose binding Complement lectin Low Humoral Humoral stomach pH LPS binding protein Antimicrobial peptides Lysozyme Antibodies C-reactive protein in tears and saliva Fig. 1.1 Innate and adaptive immune response. The human microbial defence system can be simplistically viewed as consisting of three levels: (1) anatomical and physiological barriers; (2) innate immunity; and (3) adaptive immunity. In common with many classification systems, some elements are difficult to categorize. For example, NK T cells and dendritic cells could be classified as being on the cusp of innate and adaptive immunity rather than being firmly in one camp. (Adapted from: Figure 2 in Turvey SE, Broide DH. J Allergy Clin Immunol. 2010; 125:S24–32.) Initial exposure of a genetically predisposed individual to immune and inflammatory responses contribute to aller- low levels of allergens such as grass pollens results in gic inflammation. In this chapter we explore these mech- uptake of the pollen allergen by antigen-presenting cells anisms in greater detail to gain insight into the cellular (APCs), intracellular digestion of the allergen into peptide and molecular events that contribute to the development fragments, and display of the allergen peptide fragments of the allergic inflammatory response. Such important in an human leukocyte antigen (HLA) groove on the APC insights provide the rationale for the development of surface (Fig. 1.2). When circulating T cells (expressing novel therapies for the targeted treatment of allergic an antigen cell surface receptor specific for the allergen disease, as well as the potential development of biomark- peptide) interact with the APC, the interaction activates ers to assess allergic disease severity, progression, or the T cell to express cytokines characterized by a helper response to therapy.

Th2 cytokines (Table 1.1) play an important role in inducing Central role of IgE and B cells to switch class and express IgE (e.g. interleukin-4, IL-4), induce eosinophil proliferation in the bone marrow mast cells (i.e. induced by IL-5), and up-regulate adhesion mole- cules on blood vessels to promote tissue infiltration of Atopy, the tendency to produce IgE antibodies specific circulating inflammatory cells associated with allergic for environmental allergens, affects 30–40% of the popu- inflammation such as eosinophils and basophils.
