Essay
Genetic studies have identified more than 40 genes that show allelic variations associated with the development of allergic asthma and atopic dermatitis, as well as the predisposition to develop allergies to particular antigens. Among these genes are several that implicate CD4 T cell responses in the development of these allergic diseases. Name two genes (or gene clusters) associated with atopic diseases that indicate a central role for CD4 T cells in these diseases.
