Candida-induced histamine release from basophils: relationship to house dust- and anti-IgE-induced secretion.

Candida albicans-induced histamine release from basophils was studied in 54 patients with bronchial asthma in comparison with the release caused by house dust and anti-IgE. The release of histamine induced by C. albicans and that induced by house dust were closely related to the serum levels of specific IgE antibodies as expressed by RAST scores. A correlation of C. albicans-induced histamine release with the release caused by anti-IgE was not generally observed. On the other hand, a close correlation was found between house dust- and anti-IgE-induced histamine release. It was suggested from these results that the differences between C. albicans- and house dust-induced histamine release might be due to the different antigenicity of the two allergens.
