Dietary n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in allergy prevention and asthma treatment.
Abstract The rise in non-communicable diseases, such as allergies, in westernized countries links to changes in lifestyle and diet. N-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFA) present in marine oils facilitate a favorable milieu for immune maturation and may contribute to allergy prevention. N-3 LCPUFA can suppress innate and adaptive immune activation and induce epigenetic changes. Murine studies convincingly show protective effects of fish oil, a source of n-3 LCPUFA, in food allergy and asthma models. Observational studies in human indicate that high dietary intake of n-3 LCPUFA and low intake of n-6 PU...

Food Allergy Prevention and Treatment by Targeted Nutrition
In view of the dramatic rise in the prevalence of food allergy globally, effective prevention strategies have become a public health priority. Several models have emerged around the etiology of food allergy, including the hygiene hypothesis, dual allergen exposure hypothesis, and vitamin D hypothesis. These form the basis for current and potential prevention strategies. Breastfeeding remains a key pillar of primary allergy prevention. Other nutritional interventions, including the use of whey-based, partially hydrolyzed formula in non-breastfed infants, also play an important role. In recent years, there has been a shift a...

Dietary interventions for primary allergy prevention - what is the evidence?
Abstract Allergen exposure in the early postnatal life of an infant with a genetic predisposition for allergy is regarded as at least one essential risk factor for later development of allergic diseases. The most important allergen exposure in early life derives from the early nutrition of the baby. Thus, intervention based on the concept of reducing the allergen load in the diet is one approach for primary allergy prevention in children at risk. This includes breastfeeding, allergen-reduced diet of the pregnant and lactating mother, cow milk protein hydrolysate infant formulas (= hypoallergenic infant formula or ...

Fat intake and breast milk fatty acid composition in farming and non-farming women and allergy development in the offspring.
CONCLUSION: Low maternal consumption of margarine and vegetable oils might contribute to the allergy-preventive effect of growing up on small dairy farms.Pediatric Research (2015); doi:10.1038/pr.2015.187. PMID: 26389822 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Condition-specific associations of symptoms of depression and anxiety in adolescents and young adults with asthma and food allergy.
CONCLUSIONS: In adolescents, asthma is associated with an increased risk of clinically relevant symptoms of depression and food allergy with an increased risk of clinically relevant symptoms of anxiety. Future research is needed to clarify directionality and mechanisms explaining these relationships. Health professionals should be aware of the increased risk of mental health problems in adolescents with asthma or food allergy. PMID: 26539899 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Preeclampsia Associates with Asthma, Allergy and Eczema in Childhood.
Conclusions Preeclampsia is a shared prenatal risk factor for asthma, eczema and allergy in childhood pointing towards in-utero immune programming of the child. PMID: 27626972 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Prevalence of infant sneezing without colds and prediction of childhood allergy diseases in a prospective cohort study.
Conclusions: Infant sneezing without colds predicted all allergy diseases at 6 years of age in a subtropical country. This highlights a potential non-invasive clue in a subtropical region for the early prediction, treatment and prevention of childhood allergy diseases in infancy. PMID: 29484145 [PubMed]

Trends in folic acid supplementation during pregnancy - the effect on allergy development in children.
Conclusions: Our results suggest an impact of maternal folic acid supplementation prior to and during pregnancy on allergy development in children. Further observations are required to establish the role of folate in fetal epigenetic modifications. PMID: 29760612 [PubMed]

Impacts of long-term ragweed pollen load and other potential risk factors on ragweed pollen allergy among schoolchildren in Hungary.
CONCLUSIONS: Higher ragweed pollen exposure was not found to be associated with higher risk of ragweed allergy. PMID: 29936806 [PubMed - in process]

Important risk factors for the development of food allergy and potential options for prevention.
Authors: Koplin JJ, Allen KJ, Tang ML Abstract INTRODUCTION: Food allergy currently affects up to 10% of infants. Identification and implementation of effective food allergy prevention strategies is thus imperative. Areas covered: We focus on five food allergy risk factors/prevention strategies which have been or are currently being tested in randomised controlled trials: (1) timely introduction of allergenic foods into the infant diet; (2) maternal diet and consumption of allergenic foods during pregnancy and breastfeeding; (3) infant skin barrier and the role of moisturisers in early life; (4) infant Vitamin D le...

Strategies and Future Opportunities for the Prevention, Diagnosis, and Management of Cow Milk Allergy
The prevalence of food allergy has increased over the last 20-30 years, including cow milk allergy (CMA) which is one of the most common causes of infant food allergy. International allergy experts met in 2019 to discuss broad topics in allergy prevention and management of CMA including current challenges and future opportunities. The highlights of the meeting combined with recently published developments are presented here. Primary prevention of CMA should start from pre-pregnancy with a focus on a healthy lifestyle and food diversity to ensure adequate transfer of inhibitory IgG- allergen immune complexes across the plac...

Childhood allergy susceptibility: The role of the immune system development in the in-utero period
Hum Immunol. 2022 Feb 16:S0198-8859(22)00034-9. doi: 10.1016/j.humimm.2022.02.002. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTExpression of allergic diseases in very early childhood indicates that early life events play a significant role in childhood allergy development. The developmental origins of allergy hypothesis suggest events initiated in the in-utero period derived from the interaction between maternal, placental, and fetal factors may contribute to childhood allergy susceptibility. Environmental impacts on placental function and fetal programming are imperative in defining illness risk during pregnancy. Fetal programming, a p...

The Placental Immune Milieu is Characterized by a Th2‐ and Anti‐Inflammatory Transcription Profile, Regardless of Maternal Allergy, and Associates with Neonatal Immunity
ConclusionsGene expression locally and systemically during pregnancy was partly associated with the offspring's gene expression, possibly indicating that the immunological milieu is important for fetal immune development. Maternal allergy was not associated with an enhanced Th2 immunity in placenta or PBMC, while a marked prenatal Th2 skewing, shown as increased CCL22 mRNA expression, might contribute to postnatal allergy development.
