obsolete_allergic urticaria true http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/MONDO_0006526 DOID:10612 Wikipedia:Urticaria#Allergic_urticaria Sirarat Sarntivijai commonly referred to as hives, is a kind of skin rash notable for pale red, raised, itchy bumps. Hives may cause a burning or stinging sensation. Histamine and other proinflammatory substances are released from mast cells in the skin and tissues in response to the binding of allergen-bound IgE antibodies to high-affinity cell surface receptors. Basophils and other inflammatory cells are also seen to release histamine and other mediators, and are thought to play an important role, especially in chronic urticarial diseases.
