LP14830-1 Onchocerca sp
Onchocerca is a genus of nematode (roundworm) that includes O. volvulus, the causative agent of the human disease known as River Blindness. River blindness results in vision impairment and can also cause skin disease and debilitating itching. Onchocerciasis is the second-leading infectious cause of blindness in humans. https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/onchocerciasis/index.html Other species of Onchocerca include O. lupi, which can cause disease in dogs, cats, and humans, O. gutturosa and O. lienalis, which affect cattle, and O. cervicalis, which affects horses.

LP32397-9 Ab.IgG4
IgG4 is the least common subtype of IgG, and it has a variety of functions. In the context of allergic disease it is thought to have an immune-inhibitory role in preventing anaphylaxis and is commonly known as a "blocking" antibody. IgG4 binding to an allergen can compete with IgE-mediated binding, thereby inhibiting the activation of mast cells and basophils and IgE-mediated presentation to T-cells. Measuring IgG4 and its ratio to IgE has a role in monitoring allergen specific immunotherapy PMID: 26023323. IgG4 is also thought to have a role in autoimmunity and be involved in a less defined entity known as IgG4-Related Disease, a chronic immune-mediated fibroinflammatory disorder that often manifests with tumor-like masses .https://www.merckmanuals.com/professional/musculoskeletal-and-connective-tissue-disorders/igg4-related-disease/igg4-related-disease
