대한진단검사의학회지 : 제 25 권제 6 호 2005 Korean J Lab Med 2005; 25: 448-56 진단면역학 MAST CLA 알레르기검사에서동시양성알레르겐의분석 김현수 김대중 이성규 분당제생병원진단검사의학과 Analysis of Simultaneous Positivity to Multiple Allergens on MAST CLA Test Hyun Soo Kim, M.D., Dai Joong Kim, M.T., and Seong Gyu Lee, M.D. Department of Laboratory Medicine, Bundang Jesaeng General Hospital, Sungnam, Korea Background : Allergic patients showing a simultaneously positive reaction to multiple allergens are frequently found. The purpose of this study was to analyze the pattern of simultaneously positive results to the allergens of MAST CLA Korean inhalant and food panels. Methods : From March 2004 to March 2005, we analyzed the results of the MAST CLA allergy test performed at Bundang Jesaeng General Hospital. During this period, 1,421 inhalant panels and 331 food panels were tested. Results : Mite-farinae (40.3%) and mite-pterony (34.8%) specific IgE were the most frequently detected in the inhalant panel and also in the food panel. Simultaneously positive rates to two or more allergens were 41.9% (595/1421) in the inhalant panel and 32.3% (107/331) in the food panel. Allergens with a highly positive rate (Mite-f, Mite-p, house dust) were frequently detected simultaneously with other allergens, and allergens known to have cross-reactivity showed simultaneously positive results among themselves (i.e. among various pollen allergens; among allergens associated with the pollen-food syndrome; among grain allergens; among milk and cheese; among fungi allergens; among house dust mites and house dust; among cockroach, crab and shrimp; and among cat and dog). Conclusions : Simultaneous positivity on the MAST CLA allergy test can be found frequently among various allergens, especially allergens with cross-reactivity. More advanced techniques using recombinant allergens may be needed for further analysis of this finding.

MAST CLA 알레르기검사에서동시양성알레르겐의분석 449 내에서많이사용되고있는알레르겐특이 IgE 검사를크게두분류로나누면 RAST, UniCAP과같이알레르겐을한종류씩선택하여검사하는방법과, MAST CLA와같이수십종의알레르겐이부착되어있는상품화된패널을이용하는방법이있다. 알레르겐을한종류씩선택하여검사하는방법은정량이가능하고환자와관계없는불필요한항원에대한검사를할필요가없는장점이있으나, 알려진알레르겐의종류가너무많으므로환자의증상만듣고어떤항원을선택하여검사를낼것인지판단하기가쉽지않다. 반면패널을이용하는검사법은패널이한정되어있으므로검사할항원의선택이용이한반면, 불필요한항원이검사패널에포함되어있는경우가흔하다. 그러므로검사실에서는알레르기를진단하는여러가지검사방법중어떤방법을선택할지또한검사실에서사용하고있는검사방법이적절한지를평가할필요가있다. 또한알레르기를일으키는원인항원은지역별로그분포가다르며주위환경의변화와함께지속적으로변화하고있으므로알레르기를일으키는원인항원의지역별규명이필요하고각검사실에서는사용하고있는알레르기검사의항원이그지역에맞는항원의조합인지확인할필요가있다. 본연구에서사용된 MAST CLA 검사는 35종의항원에대한특이 IgE 항체를검사할수있으며 1990년대초반에국내에도입되어패널검사로는현재까지가장널리사용되고있는검사법으로, 한국형패널로개발된이후두차례항원조합을변경시켜왔다. 알레르기환자는 2종류이상의항원에대해알레르기를가지고있는경우가많은데 MAST CLA 검사를하다보면여러알레르겐에동시양성인환자가흔히발견된다. MAST CLA 검사로수행한각항원의양성률에관한여러보고 [1-7] 가있으나 MAST CLA 검사패널내에서동시에잘나타나는항원의조합에대해서는거의알려진바가없다. 그러므로저자들은 13개월간분당제생병원에서시행된 MAST CLA 검사결과를분석하여분당, 성남지역의환자가많은분당제생병원에서흔히나타나는알레르기항원을규명하고, MAST CLA 한국형패널내에서동시양성항원의양상을파악하고자하였다. 1. 대상 대상및방법 2004년 3월부터 2005년 3월까지 13개월동안분당제생병원진단검사의학과에 MAST CLA 알레르기검사가의뢰되었던환자 를대상으로하였다. 이기간동안흡입형알레르기검사가총 1,421 건이의뢰되었고음식형알레르기검사가총 331건이의뢰되었다. 의뢰된환자중남자가 942명, 여자가 810명이었으며, 연령분포는 0세부터 93세까지다양하였으나흡입형, 음식형모두 10세이하에서의뢰가많았다 (Table 1). 과별로는흡입형알레르기검사는이비인후과에서대부분의뢰되었으며 (87.3%), 음식형알레르기검사는피부과 (58.9%) 와소아과 (32.6%) 에서주로의뢰되었다 (Table 2). 2.

Chamber에환자혈청을넣고 18시간동안실온에서반응시킨후세척용완충액으로 3회세척하였다. 효소표지항-IgE 항체용액을 chamber에넣고실온에서 4시간반응시킨후 3회세척하고발광시약을다시 chamber에넣고실온에서 30분반응시켰다. 결과는 MAST CLA-1 luminometer를이용하여 class 0, 1/0, 1, 2, 3, 4의 6단계로판독되며 class 1 이상을양성으로판정하였다. 3. 결과분석 MAST CLA-1 luminometer의결과는검사실정보시스템으로전송되므로 13개월동안의 MAST 검사결과를 Microsoft사의 Excel (Microsoft corporation, Redmond, WA, USA) 을이용하여각항목을분석하였다. 결과 1. 각항원양성률흡입형알레르기항원으로는 mite-farinae (Dermatophagoides farinae) 와 mite-pterony (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus) 가각각 40.3%, 34.8% 로가장양성률이높았고 house dust (21.0%), dog (11.6%), aspergillus (11.5%), cockroach (9.8%), white oak (9.0%), cat (8.2%), short ragweed (7.5%), rye (5.3%), Bermuda grass (5.1%) 가 5% 이상의양성률을보였다 (Table 3). 음식형알레르기패널에는흡입형알레르기패널에없는음식항원 15개가추가되었었는데이중 10% 를넘은것은없었고 egg white (7.3%), milk (6.6%), peanut (5.7%) 이 5% 이상의양성률을나타내었다. 2. 동시양성항원수음식형또는흡입형패널의각각 35개의항원중동시에양성으로나타난항원의개수별분포를 Table 4에나타내었다. 흡입형알레르기검사가의뢰된 1,421검체중 2개이상의항원에동시양성을보인것이 595검체 (41.9%) 였고음식형알레르기검사는 331검체중 107검체 (32.3%) 에서 2개이상의항원에동시양성을보였다 (Table 4). 3. 연령별양성률및평균양성항원수흡입형과음식형알레르기검사의연령별양성률과평균양성항

Peanut과 soy 등콩과류의식물은식물알부민 (Ara h 2, h 6, h 7 from peanut 등 ) 과 7S 글로불린 (Ara h 1 from peanut; Cor a 11 from hazelnut; Gly m 1 from soybean), 11S globulin (Ara h 3, h 4 from peanut 등 ) 간의교차반응으로생각된다. 쌀, 보리, 밀등곡류간의동시양성은흔하게발견되나원인이되는항원에대해서는아직불확실하다. 치즈와우유는 80% 가같은 casein 성분 (Bos d 8) 이므로동시양성이대부분이었다. 곰팡이류간의교차반응을일으키는알레르겐으로는 mold의 enolase (Alt a 11 from alternaria; Asp f 22 from aspergillus; Cla h 6 from cladosporium; Pen c 22 from penicillium 등 ) 을생각해볼수있다. 집먼지진드기 2종및집먼 지는대부분의경우동시양성을보였는데이는진드기항원 1군 (Der f 1 from Dermatophagoides farinae; Der p 1 from Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus 등 ) 과진드기항원 2군 (Der f 2 from Dermatophagoides farinae; Der p 2 from Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus 등 ) 사이의교차반응때문인것으로해석된다. Housedust mite, cockroach, crab, shrimp 간의동시양성은무척추동물에있는 tropomyosin군 (Der f 10 from Dermatophagoides farinae; Der p 10 from Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus; Per a 7 from cockroach; Cla f 1 form crab; Pen? from shrimp 등 ) 간의교차반응으로생각된다. Pork, beef, chicken, cat, dog 등의포유류들끼리동시양성을잘보인다. 이는혈청 albumin의교차반응때문으로해석되는데본연구에서도개와고양이사이의동시양성률이높았다. Egg와 chicken의교차반응 (Bird-egg syndrome) 의주원인은 Gal d 5 (albumin: a-livetin) 이며생선류는 parvalbumins군 (Cad c 1 from codfish; Sal s 1 from salmon 등 ) 이주요한교차반응항원인데 [10, 11] 본연구에서는양성환자수가적어확실하지않았으나 salmon 양성환자 2명이모두 codfish에양성을보였고, chicken 양성환자가 5명중 4명 (80%) 이 egg white 양성이었다. 교차반응또는동시양성항원에관한국내보고로는특정항원간의교차반응을실험으로증명한논문들 [7, 12, 13] 과, 항원들을수목류, 목초류, 잡초류꽃가루군, 동물군, 집먼지진드기군등의군 (group) 으로나누어이들군간의동시양성률을구한보고가있었으나 [6] 본연구에서와같이 MAST CLA 검사의모든항원에대하여개별항원간의동시양성률을구한것은저자들이찾아본바로는국내외최초의시도이며본연구의결과는 MAST CLA를이용하는검사실에서결과해석시유용한자료로사용될수있을것이다. 본연구에서동시양성결과가각각의알레르겐에노출되어생긴동시감작 (co-sensitization) 인지, 한알레르겐에만노출되었으나비슷한구조를가진알레르겐사이의교차반응 (cross-reactivity) 에의해노출된적이없는알레르겐에대해서도양성으로나타났는지는현재항원추출법을사용하는검사방법으로는불가능하다. 알레르기검사의다중양성결과를해석하는데있어각검사실에서사용하고있는알레르겐물질의특성에대한정확한정보가필요한데아직까지알레르기를일으키는물질에서추출한항원을이용하는검사법으로는규명된알레르겐도있으나규명되었더라도분자량만알수있는규명되지않은물질이많이포함되어있다. MAST Korean panel도 Acacia, BirchAlder mix, Citrus mix, Dandelion, Garlic, Goldenrod, Onion mix, Orchard grass 는제조회사에서도추출물의내용을규명하지않았으므로알레르겐분자단위의교차반응유무를알기에는어려움이있었다. 최근에는각각의알레르기반응을일으키는분자 (molecule) 단위의알레르겐항원의규명과아미노산배열, 3차원구조, 유전자구조가밝혀지고있으며 [10, 11] 이들알레르겐분자에따른교차반응이규명되고있다. 또한 birch 알레르겐인 Bet v 1 등과같은
MAST CLA 알레르기검사에서동시양성알레르겐의분석 455 일부알레르겐분자에대해서는재조합항원 (rbet v 1) 을만들어환자혈청과반응하는것을확인하였으므로앞으로수년내에재조합항원으로만들어진알레르기진단시약이개발되면교차반응과동시감작의감별이가능하여알레르기질환의진단및면역치료에유용하게이용될것으로기대된다. 요약배경 : 알레르기검사시여러알레르겐에대해동시양성인환자가흔히발견된다. 본연구에서는 MAST CLA 검사결과를분석하여 MAST CLA 한국형패널 ( 흡입형과음식형의 2종류 ) 내에서동시양성항원의양상을분석하고자하였다. 방법 : 2004년 3월부터 2005년 3월까지 13개월동안분당제생병원진단검사의학과에의뢰되었던 MAST 검사결과를분석하였다. 이기간동안흡입형알레르기검사가총 1,421건, 음식형알레르기검사가 331건이의뢰되었다. 결과 : 흡입형패널에서각항원의양성률은 Mite-farinae (40.3 %) 와 Mite-pterony (34.8%) 가가장높았고음식형패널에서도두항원의양성률이가장높았다. 2개이상의항원에동시양성을보이는경우는흡입형패널이 41.9% (595/1421) 였고음식형이 32.3% (107/331) 이었다. 동시양성인항원의조합을분석하였는데고빈도의양성률을가진항원 (Mite-f, Mite-p, house dust) 과다른항원들간의동시양성률이높게나타났고, 교차반응이있는것으로알려진수목 (tree), 목초 (grass), 잡초 (weed) 의꽃가루항원간에, 또꽃가루음식증후군 (pollen-food syndrome) 으로일으킨다는꽃가루항원, 과일, 채소, 콩류간에, 쌀, 보리, 밀등곡류간에, 우유와치즈간에, 곰팡이류간에, 집먼지진드기 2종및집먼지간에, 바퀴, 새우, 게간에, 개와고양이간에동시양성률이높았다. 결론 : MAST CLA 검사의동시양성결과가여러항원들사이에발견되었는데특히교차반응이있는것으로알려진항원간에동시양성률이높았다. 이들동시양성결과가동시감작 (cosensitization) 인지교차반응 (cross-reactivity) 인지는알수없으나, 향후재조합항원을이용한알레르기진단시약이개발되면이현상을구분할수있을것으로기대된다. 참고문헌 1.
