Twelve cases of pollinosis and 13 cases of pollen asthma caused by Ezo-Yomogi(Artemisia montana) pollen were examined in Sapporo, Japan. Artemisia montana is the most common species of this genus in Sapporo. On pollen surveys, Ezo-Yomogi pollen was found from the middle of August to the end of September. High sensitivity to wormwood pollen in these patients was confirmed by intradermal tests and provocation tests which were examined on eye, nose and bronchus. The most of the patients were also sensitive to grass pollen and the symptoms were occured not only in the beginning of autumn, but in the beginning of summer. However, the patients of typical Ezo-Yomogi pollinosis were seen late in summer. From the results of intradermal tests with the pollen extracts of wormwood (Art. absinthium) and Ezo-Yomogi (Art. montana) in these patients, the threshold (end point of antigen dilution) values of skin reactions with both extracts were same value in each patient. The authers consider that Ezo-Yomogi pollen play a dominant role for the development of clinical manifestations in the patients.
