Expert Answer
An antibody known as immunoglobulin gamma E (IgE) causes allergic reactions in human beings by attacking substances that are foreign, but which usually are harmless to most people.
When IgE attacks, it causes special cells known as mast cells to release chemicals that irritate people with allergies. These chemicals include histamine, cytokines, granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), leukotrienes, heparin, and many proteases.
