Abstract
We investigated whether allergen-specific IgE-mediated hypersensitivity is transferred by bone marrow transplantation. Twelve patients, 14 to 47 years of age, undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation for the treatment of hematologic cancer were selected, along with their donors, by a screening questionnaire for a history of atopy in the donor. We evaluated these donor-recipient pairs before transplantation and at several points afterward for immediate skin-test reactivity to 17 allergens.This publication has 49 references indexed in Scilit:
