The activated CD4 T-lymphocytes transport the leukocytes from the bloodstream to the airways (Holgate, 2008), and hence manage the release of mediators from lymphocytes, mast cells, and eosinophil (Fireman, 2003). The allergen trigger causes the cross linkage between the two IgE molecules, and hence results in the release of leukotriene, histamine, and other mediators. These mediators along with mast cells and eosinophil, which produce cytokines, propagate the…
