Proinflammatory cytokines and response to molds in mononuclear cells of patients with Meniere disease
Abstract Epidemiological studies have found a higher prevalence of allergic symptoms and positive prick tests in patients with Meniere’s disease (MD); however the effect of allergenic extracts in MD has not been established. Thus, this study aims to determine the effect of Aspergillus and Penicilliu...
