BACKGROUND: Serum inhibition of allergen‐specific IgE has been associated with competing IgG4 and non‐specific polyclonal IgE. In allergen immunotherapy, beneficial responses have been associated with high IgG4/IgE ratios. Helminths potentiate antibody class switching to IgG4 and stimulate polyclona...
