Abstract
The respiratory system has defense mechanisms such as hair cells, Immune System, cough, sneezing, etc. Let's talk about the relationship between airway, allergy and immunodeficiency.
One of the most important substances to take into account is Histamine, both in its beneficial aspect and producing symptoms characteristic of these pathologies. IgE-mediated reactions, also present, involve mast cells and basophils.
The alteration of immunity and allergy is considered as a breakdown of the balance of the immune system. Let's not forget genetic and environmental factors (increased incidence in more urbanized communities)
We will also talk about the autonomic innervation that is so important to understand the symptomatology and its influence on the immune system and vice versa.
