: Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is a frequent disorder in which activation of effector cells and histamine release can be induced via several distinct pathogenetic mechanisms. Much work has been carried out to identify biomarkers useful for classifying CSU patients, and to predict their response to currently available treatments.: The recent literature dealing with CSU biomarkers was screened in PubMed and Google Scholar using 'chronic spontaneous urticaria', 'biomarker', 'diagnosis', 'therapy' and 'treatment response' as key words.

Long before the discovery of IgE it was reported that human dander extract can elicit immediate-type skin reactions in patients with severe atopy and that this skin sensitivity can be passively transferred with serum. Several recent findings have rekindled the interest in this phenomenon and led to the concept that IgE autoreactivity may play a pathogenetic role in severe and chronic forms of atopy. The elucidation of the nature of several environmental allergens has revealed striking structural and immunologic similarities with human proteins.
