Popis: A lack of correlation between systemic and local IgE production at mucosal sites has been reported for allergic asthma [1–5], allergic rhinitis [6, 7] and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps [8–10]. In allergic asthmatics, local IgE production is higher than in nonallergic asthmatics [3] and high local IgE levels have been linked to the clinical phenotype. Interestingly, in cases of nasal polyps, local IgE targets mainly superantigens [8].
