Scientists probe lymph nodes to unlock allergy shot secrets

NCT ID NCT07447869

Summary

This study aims to understand how cat allergy shots (immunotherapy) change the body's immune response. Researchers will compare 16 cat-allergic adults: half who have been getting allergy shots for over a year and half who have never had this treatment. They will take small samples from lymph nodes and blood after a tiny skin test with cat allergen to see what immune cells are present in each group.
