Antigen-specific immunotherapy

Antigen-specific immunotherapy is a treatment that trains the immune system to recognize and target particular substances, known as antigens, involved in diseases like allergies or autoimmune disorders. By introducing controlled doses of these antigens, the therapy helps the immune system develop tolerance, reducing harmful reactions over time. This personalized approach aims to minimize side effects compared to broader immune suppression methods, providing a more targeted and effective way to manage or prevent immune-related conditions.
