RESUMO
A falta de estímulos infecciosos é apontada como uma das causas do aumento de doenças alérgicas. Existem evidências de que a atopia teria como base a disfunção imune. Por ocasião da apresentação do antígeno citocinas são decisivas no tipo de resposta imune resultante. Num estudo randomizado duplo cego avaliamos a associação da vacina BCG com imunoterapia específica para o ácaro Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus em 21 pacientes asmáticos. Observamos após imunoterapia melhora dos sintomas clínicos e da função pulmonar, redução da reatividade cutânea, da linfoproliferação com Dpt, aumento dos níveis da IgG especifica e da IL-10, nos dois grupos, com e sem BCG. Não houve diferença dentre eles. / Decreased exposure to infectious agents has been pointed as one of the factors involved in the increasing of allergic diseases. Immune dysfunction underlines atopy. Cytokines profile during antigen presentation is decisive to define immune response. Association of BCG vaccine with specific immunotherapy for Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus were assessed in double blind randomized study in 21 asthmatic patients. Improvement in clinical symptoms and in pulmonary function, reduction in cutaneous reactivity and in lymphoproliferation with Dpt extract and increase in specific IgG and IL-10 levels, were observed in both groups, with or without BCG. No difference were observed between groups...
