Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue explores the intricate relationship between the immune system and allergic reactions, shedding light on the underlying mechanisms, diagnostic tools, and therapeutic interventions. We invite submissions of original research articles and reviews that contribute to our understanding of immune responses and allergies, including, but not limited to, the following:
- Mechanisms of allergic responses;
- Novel advances in immune system pathophysiology;
- Allergen identification and characterization;
- Immune modulation in allergies or inflammatory disorders;
- Genetic and environmental influences;
- Novel therapeutic targets;
- Clinical management and prevention.
We aim to provide a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in the fields of allergies and immune system interactions, with the ultimate goal of advancing our ability to diagnose, treat, and prevent allergic and immune disorders. Researchers and clinicians from diverse backgrounds are encouraged to contribute their insights and findings to this timely and important Special Issue.
Dr. Marco Casciaro
Guest Editor
