A 17-year-old man was scheduled for ventriculo-peritoneal shunt under general anesthesia. Anesthesia was induced by propofol, rocuronium and pentazocine, and maintained with sevoflurane and nitrous oxide. The operation was finished in 1 hour and 4 minutes without trouble. After the operation, sugammadex was administered. After about 2 minutes, the redness and the wheal appeared in the body trunk, and SpO2 dropped to The appearance of rapid symptom immediately after administration of sugammadex indicated that anaphylactic reaction had occurred. We administered adrenaline. After the administration of adrenaline several times, cutaneous findings became improved and SpO2 was stabilized. We started continuous infusion of adrenaline, and the patient was moved to the intensive care unit (ICU). Twelve hours after entering the ICU, the patient was extubated. He showed no troubles thereafter, and left hospital. After introduction of sugammadex to clinical use, 7 cases of anaphylactic reaction to sugammadex were reported. We must know that anaphylactic reaction can be induced by sugammadex.

Patent Blue V (PBV) is extensively used in sentinel lymph node identification in cancer surgery, potentially leading to an increased incidence of hypersensitivity reactions. A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with suspected PBV hypersensitivity, at our center from 2010 to 2023. Skin prick tests (SPT) were performed on all patients, followed by intradermal tests (IDT) if SPT was negative.

Detecting β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) with high sensitivity and selectivity is an urgent requirement due to nearly 80% of milk anaphylaxis, such as respiratory tract, skin urticaria, and gastrointestinal disorders, being caused by β-Lg. An ultrasensitive β-Lg electrochemical aptasensor utilizing core-satellite gold nanoparticle@silver nanocluster (AuNPs@AgNCs) nanohybrids as electrocatalysts was developed. First, β-Lg aptamer was anchored on gold electrodes and AuNPs to obtain high selectivity.

Kounis syndrome also known as allergic myocardial infarction, represents the simultaneous occurrence of acute coronary syndromes with allergic or hypersensitivity reactions. We present a case of a 58-years-old male who developed anaphylaxis following a leech bite, leading to myocardial infarction despite the absence of prior allergic history. He was entubated and cardiopulmonary resusciation had been performed for 10 minutes.

Two-pore channels (TPCs) are adenine nucleotide and phosphoinositide regulated cation channels. NAADP activates and ATP blocks TPCs, while the endolysosomal phosphoinositide PI(3,5)P activates TPCs. TPCs are ubiquitously expressed including expression in the innate as well as the adaptive immune system.

Vaccination is a fundamental principle of preventive health care. Administration of the vaccine, which contains the antigen(s) of a pathogen, activates the immune system and provides protection against infection. The immunogenicity and allergenicity of a vaccine may lead to various adverse reactions, depending on the responsiveness and susceptibility of the vaccinated individual.
