New Directions in Diagnostic Evaluation of Insect AllergyNew Directions in Diagnostic Evaluation of Insect Allergy
Diagnosis of insect sting allergy and prediction of risk of anaphylaxis are often difficult because tests for venom-specific IgE antibodies have a limited positive predictive value. Current Opinion in Allergy and Clinical Immunology

Peanut allergy: Effect of environmental peanut exposure in children with filaggrin loss-of-function mutations
Filaggrin (FLG) loss-of-function mutations lead to an impaired skin barrier associated with peanut allergy. Household peanut consumption is associated with peanut allergy, and peanut allergen in household dust correlates with household peanut consumption.

Educational programmes in food allergy.
Authors: Kugler C, Brockow K, Ring J Abstract About 17% of German children and adolescents suffer from at least one of the following atopic illnesses: allergic rhinoconjunctivitis, atopic eczema or asthma. Consistent professional therapy is necessary to limit the health-related risks and improve these medical conditions. The consequences of a diagnosis often mean an additional task for the parents of diseased children, where they have to act simultaneously as an educator and therapist for their children. Structured educational programmes were developed for a few diseases such as asthma and atopic eczema in order to...

Fruit and vegetable allergy.
Authors: Fernández-Rivas M Abstract Fruit and vegetable allergies are the most prevalent food allergies in adolescents and adults. The identification of the allergens involved and the elucidation of their intrinsic properties and cross-reactivity patterns has helped in the understanding of the mechanisms of sensitisation and how the allergen profiles determine the different phenotypes. The most frequent yet contrasting fruit and vegetable allergies are pollen-food syndrome (PFS) and lipid transfer protein (LTP) syndrome. In PFS, fruit and vegetable allergies result from a primary sensitisation to labile pollen all...

New risks from ancient food dyes: cochineal red allergy.
This study reports an unusual case of IgE-mediated hypersensitivity to Cochineal red or Carmine red, a coloring agent of natural origin. Although the risk of anaphylactic reactions is well known, since the nineties the use of this additive seems to be nowadays on the rise. The problem of labeling of additives used in handmade food products is highlighted. PMID: 25398168 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]

Monoclonal antibodies in allergy; updated applications and promising trials.
Authors: Ozdemir C Abstract Allergic disorders, as asthma, allergic rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis, atopic dermatitis, food allergies and anaphylaxis have an increasing burden in the general population and a growing body of evidence has shown that an increased interest has aroused to seek for more effective treatment strategies. Conventional pharmacotherapy by antihistamines, anti-leukotrienes, corticosteroids and bronchodilators can routinely control most of the cases, in addition to allergen avoidance which saves the date. Furthermore, allergen specific immunotherapy stands as the only curative method to treat the ...

Allergy to honeybee … not only stings
Purpose of review: The purpose of this review is to provide a brief overview of the risks of consumption of bee products in honeybee venom allergic patients and compositae allergic patients, the potential allergens involved in these reactions, the advancement in solving diagnostic difficulties, and management of allergic reactions to bee products. Recent findings: Allergic patients to bee venom and compositae allergic patients may be allergic to bee products. Several bee products allergens have been identified in bee venom. Summary: Anaphylaxis to bee products is rare. Some studies show a clear association between some aer...

Efficacy of a therapeutic treatment using gas‐filled microbubble‐associated phospholipase A2 in a mouse model of honeybee venom allergy
ConclusionsIn contrast to conventional PLA2 subcutaneous immunotherapy, the therapeutic administration of PLA2‐MB treatment to mice that already had established allergy to PLA2 protects all subsequently challenged animals.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

When nutrition and allergy collide: the rise of anaphylaxis to plant foods
Purpose of review: Interest in nutrition is increasing, but in the world of internet health gurus, whilst the nutritional benefits of fruits and vegetables are extolled, wheat is often vilified. This review will assess the positive nutritional effects of plant foods in relation to allergy prevention, the effectiveness of gluten-avoidance and the likelihood of anaphylaxis to fruits and vegetables. Recent findings: Although the numbers of people who report gluten sensitivity is rising, hard evidence of mass sensitivity to gluten is scant. Also, the avoidance of wheat containing foods could lead to nutritional imbalance and ...

Component resolved diagnostics for hymenoptera venom allergy
Purpose of review: Component-resolved diagnostics makes use of defined allergen molecules to analyse IgE-mediated sensitizations at a molecular level. Here, we review recent studies on the use of component-resolved diagnostics in the field of Hymenoptera venom allergy (HVA) and discuss its benefits and limitations. Recent findings: Component resolution in HVA has moved from single molecules to panels of allergens. Detection of specific immunoglobulin E (sIgE) to marker and cross-reactive venom allergens has been reported to facilitate the discrimination between primary sensitization and cross-reactivity and thus, to provi...

How to manage food allergy in nursery or school
Purpose of review The aim of this review is to describe effective management strategies in nursery or school based upon research findings. Recent findings The prevalence of food allergy and number of emergency department visits for food-related anaphylaxis are increasing in children and adolescents. As there is currently no cure, the most effective strategy to decrease allergic reactions is food allergen avoidance. However, allergic reactions are inevitable in both food allergic children as well as in first-time reactors. Misconceptions exist on the safety of products with advisory labels and questions remain on wheth...
