In contrast to other environmental allergens, the association with atopic dermatitis was present for Fel d 1, which may suggest that the skin is an important route of sensitization for this allergen. GLO:1X5/01dec19:all13927-fig-0002.jpg PHOTO (COLOR): Hierarchical clustering performed on patient sensitization profiles and allergen components indicating clusters by allergen source and biochemical family (sensitized: N = 37; nonsensitized: N = 18). In conclusion, we provide data describing a potentially high-risk preschool asthma cohort in Canada using a comprehensive approach capturing sensitization to allergens of paramount importance. By applying both allergen extracts and components, we identified that peanut and animal allergens from cat and dog were major allergen sources in this North American cohort of preschool asthmatics.
