In the meanwhile, the allergist/immunologist can continue to play a vital role in improving the quality of life in children with allergies and asthma at school through the use of the ADA policy and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act as well as encouraging adoption of toolkits to build successful school-based asthma programs and asthma-friendly schools.
Therefore, we evaluated associations between genetic polymorphisms of adenosine deaminase and the four adenosine receptors (A(1), A(2A), A(2B), and A(3)) with the AIA phenotype.
The analysis of pairwise gametic type distribution for ACP1, ADA and MN polymorphisms has shown that the pattern of differences between bronchial asthma and controls is opposite to that observed between CD and controls.
The activity of the enzyme purine metabolism (5'-nucleotidase, adenosine deaminase, xanthine oxidase and the content of uric acid, i.e. the final product of the purine metabolism) were determined in lymphocytes, eosinophiles and blood serum of patients with bronchial asthma.
