Abstract

The purpose of the current review is to highlight the most recent findings in molecular allergy and its applicability in precision medicine for allergic patients. Molecular allergy provides useful information in areas of respiratory allergy (house dust mites, pet dander and pollen allergy), food allergy (tree nuts, peanuts, fruits and vegetables), hymenoptera venom allergy and others, in order to improve management of patients. Regional differences in sensitization profiles, assay characteristics and interpretation of molecular sensitization in relation to whole extracts and total immunoglobulin E need to be taken into account. Studies of the impact of such strategies are needed. Molecular allergy diagnosis represents a major contribution for personalized medicine. It aids in the assesment of risk prediction, disease severity, genuine/cross-reactive sensitization, and finally to apply precise management strategies.
