The identification of the causes of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is difficult. The recognition of functional autoantibodies against FcεRI and/or against IgE in some patients with CSU led to the concept of autoimmune etiology of the disease. Clinical and laboratory features in a subpopulation of CSU patients also point to an autoimmune etiology of the disease. This review will present and dis- cuss the relevance of functional autoantibodies in CSU pathogenesis and their implications for treat- ment and prognosis.
