“…Rebhun er al. ( 2 ) , by direct skin testing of ragweed-sensitive patients, demonstrated that reagin reacting antigens were present in all parts of the giant ragweed plant. Other researchers reported thc purification of antigens E and K (3-5), of Ra.…”

“…A third possibility is that the components which give rise to pollinosis and bronchoconstriction originate not only from pollen but also from other parts of the plant. Allergens and rapidly released allergens are indeed found in all parts of the Ambrosia plant, not only during but also before and after the pollen season [11,31,32]. AGARWAL et al (11) found large amounts of allergen before as well as during the flowering season, especially in the flowers of Ambrosia eliator but also, albeit to a lesser degree, in the other parts of the plant.…”

The pathophysiological mechanisms of pollen-induced asthma have until now remained unclear, because pollen particles have generally been considered too large to penetrate into the lower respiratory tract. Such grains are therefore believed to be unable to induce an immunological response in the lower respiratory tract. There is evidence, however, that a small percentage of large particles (20-30 microns) may penetrate into the peripheral areas of the lung. It also appears that small airborne units of less than 5 microns with the same antigenic activity as pollen, may contribute to inhaled allergen burdens. Pollen asthma probably results from a gradual cumulative effect of deposition of small amounts of allergen in lower airways, and is hence poorly correlated with daily pollen counts.

AJ'ter a brief description of the allergenic pollens in volved in pollinosis in Italy, the attthor outlines the structttre of the pollen grain and its mechanism of allergenicio;. The methods of isolating and evaluating allergens are listed, in addition to the principal allergenic pollens, h7 conchtsion, the attthor underlines the need .[or international standardization o[" allergenic extracts to be used for research and clinical proposes.
