  • Title: LAV/HTLV-III infection and atopy: serum IgE and specific IgE antibodies to environmental allergens.
    Author: Ring J, Fröschl M, Brunner R, Braun-Falco O.
    Journal: Acta Derm Venereol; 1986; 66(6):530-2. PubMed ID: 2433876.
    Abstract:
    The incidence of atopic diseases and IgE production was investigated in 69 patients of the AIDS outpatient clinic. In LAV/HTLV-III infected homosexuals there was a trend to lower serum IgE levels and decreased frequency of atopic diseases. The incidence of patients with positive RAST against common environmental allergens was significantly lower in LAV/HTLV-III-infected versus non-infected homosexuals.
