…It is a compound word of the Greek words allos (different, changed) and ergon (action, ability), and was first used by Austrian pediatrician Clemens F. von Pirquet (1874-1929) in his paper Allergy, published in 1906. It means "changed reaction ability" or "mutagenic action," and refers to a case in which a living body that comes into contact with a foreign substance shows a different reaction to the substance than before. For example, this corresponds to a case in which a person becomes hypersensitive to the drug after receiving a penicillin injection and dies of shock from the injection (penicillin shock), or a case in which hives occur after eating fish or eggs. … From [Allergens]…Nowadays, antigens involved in the development of immediate allergies caused mainly by immunoglobulin Ig E antibodies are often called allergens. Types of allergens include pollen allergens extracted from ragweed pollen, orchard grass pollen, cedar pollen, etc., animal allergens extracted from hair and skin shedding of horses and cats, and mites, and food allergens and mold allergens extracted from fish, milk, eggs, etc. These allergens are mainly proteins, but low-molecular-weight simple chemicals such as drugs can also be allergens under special conditions. … *Some of the terminology that mentions "pollen allergens" is listed below.

…ギリシア語のallos(違った,変わった)とergon(作用,能力)を合成した語で,オーストリアの小児科医ピルケーClemens F.von Pirquet(1874‐1929)が1906年に発表した論文《アレルギー》で用いたのが初めである。〈変化した反応能力〉〈変作動〉という意味で,ある外来性の物質と接した生体が,この物質に対して,それまでとは変わった反応性を示す場合を指す。たとえば,ペニシリンの注射を受けているうちに,この薬剤に対して過敏となり,ペニシリンの注射によってショック死を起こすような場合(ペニシリンショック)や,魚や卵を食べると蕁麻疹(じんましん)が起こるような場合がこれに一致する。… 【アレルゲン】より…現在では,おもに免疫グロブリンIg E型抗体による即時型アレルギーの発生に関与する抗原をアレルゲンと呼ぶ場合が多い。アレルゲンの種類としては,ブタクサ花粉,カモガヤ花粉,スギ花粉などから抽出される花粉アレルゲン,ウマ,ネコなどの毛や皮膚からの脱落物,ダニなどから抽出される動物アレルゲン,魚肉,牛乳,鶏卵などから抽出される食物アレルゲンおよびカビアレルゲンなどがある。これらのアレルゲンの本態はおもにタンパク質であるが,薬物などの低分子の単純化学物質も特殊な条件のもとではアレルゲンとなりうる。… ※「花粉アレルゲン」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
