Statistical studies of patients' sensitization to allergens make it possible to form a general picture of sensitization for the whole country, help doctors to develop competent tactics for examining patients in the regions and can be used for the development of new formulations of allergy vaccines.Objective. To study the sensitization to inhalation allergens Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (Der. p.) and Dermatophagoides farinaе (Der. f.) in Moscow and the Moscow region in 2010–2019 and to

Blood serum samples of Moscow and the Moscow region residents with IgEA (n = 2849) were examined by RIDA AllergyScreen method in 2010–2019.Results. According to the results of the study spanning the last ten years, about 18–21% of patients with IgEA in Moscow and the Moscow region have sensitization to Der. p. and/or Der. f. There was a statistically significant decrease in sensitization to Der. p. from 2017 to 2019. House dust mites of the type Der. f. more often cause a higher level of sensitization compared to Der. p.Discussion. The data obtained indicate the change in the sensitization of patients to Pyroglyphidae, namely Der. p. against the background of changes in the housing acarocomplex of Moscow and the Moscow region. Features of protein molecules of these species of dust mites may contribute to their varying degrees of the impact on immunological reactivity in the population studied.Conclusions. The decrease in the prevalence of Der. p. is mos
