Serum Baseline Tryptase Level as a Marker for the Severity of Anaphylaxis

Abstract: Background: Anaphylaxis is a severe and potentially fatal allergic disease or hypersensitivity reaction with variable clinical presentation. Biomarkers in anaphylaxis could be useful to improve diagnosis, to allow endotyping of patients, and to predict risk. Objective: To investigate the role of serum basal tryptase (sBT) levels in the management of patients with anaphylaxis. Methods: Patients with at least 1 episode of anaphylaxis were selected among those who attended the Allergy Clinics of the Clinical Hosp… Show more

“…For asthma patients, basal tryptase level was significantly higher for those with biphasic than monophasic anaphylaxis (median: 5.3 μg/l, n = 6 vs 3.7 μg/l, n = 38, p=0.015). This is the first study to suggest that basal tryptase level was higher with biphasic than monophasic anaphylaxis and we know that higher tryptase level is associated with severity of anaphylaxis (1,4). This association needs to be confirmed in futures studies to conclude that higher basal tryptase could be a risk factor for severe anaphylaxis like biphasic reactions.…”

“…BST may reflect pro-β tryptase due to increased body mast cell content (18) or result from alpha-tryptasemia due to multiple copies of TPSAB1 gene (19). Irrespective of the mechanism—increased BST has been shown to correlate with the severity of anaphylaxis (20).…”
