IgE is a class of immunoglobulins that is produced only in mammals. IgE is secreted by mast cells in response to allergens and is important in immunity against parasites. It also is the most important factor in the pathophysiology of anaphylaxis or type I hypersensitivity. The antibody preparation is specific for human IgE when tested against purified human IgA, IgG, IgM, Bence Jones κ, and Bence Jones λ proteins. Identity and purity of the antibody is established by immunoelectrophoresis.
Immunogen
Purified human IgE (myeloma)
Application
Anti-Human IgE (epsilon-chain specific) antibody may be used as a control in various immunoassays.

Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies and mast cells have been so convincingly linked to the pathophysiology of anaphylaxis and other acute allergic reactions that it can be difficult to think of them in other contexts. However, a large body of evidence
Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor X2 (MRGPRX2) is regarded as a mast cell-specific receptor mediating non-IgE-dependent activation. We aimed to investigate whether human basophils and eosinophils express functional MRGPRX2. Flow cytometry, immunocytochemistry, immunofluorescence, Western blot, and RT-PCR were performed in highly
Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) plays a key role in maintaining immune tolerance and also in immune evasion of cancers and pathogens. Though the identity of stimuli that induce PD-L1 in various human innate cells and their function are relatively well

Allergen immunotherapy for patients with allergies begins with weekly escalating doses of allergen under medical supervision to monitor and treat IgE mast cell-mediated anaphylaxis. There is currently no treatment to safely desensitize mast cells to enable robust allergen immunotherapy with
Asthma is characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness and inflammation, as well as underlying structural changes to the airways. Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is a key T-helper type 2 (Th2) cytokine that plays important roles in the pathogenesis of atopic and eosinophilic asthma. We
