How molecular diagnostics help us to correctly identify pet allergies
SummarySimultaneous sensitization to two or more animal species is common and represents a  regular diagnostic problem during conventional extract-based allergy diagnosis. The use of single allergen molecules reveals the underlying cause of polysensitization and enables the distinction between primary sensitization and cross-reaction as a prerequisite for the selection of appropriate im munotherapy vaccines. Individual sensitization patterns can be valuable predictors of clinical relevance, symptom severity and asthma risk, and in part reflect current or past animal exposure. The concept of “marker allergens” is chal...

Podcasting in Clinical Allergy and Immunology: Our Experience and a Review of the Current Landscape
AbstractPurpose of ReviewThis review aims to improve our understanding of podcasts in the field of Allergy and Immunology and to share our experience in creating and hostingThe Itch Podcast. To our knowledge, this is the first review providing an overview of podcasting in the field.Recent FindingsWe found forty-seven podcasts in our search. Ten  of these podcasts were specifically focused on Immunology and the other thirty seven covered allergy topics in general. Of the allergy podcasts, the majority, sixteen out of thirty-seven, were produced and hosted by patients and caregivers of patients living with allergies. Su...

Evaluation and Management of Food Allergies in the Emergency Department
Food allergies are a common and serious cause of illness, accounting for an increasing number of emergency department visits annually. Although definite diagnosis lays outside of an emergency department visit, the clinical management of the most serious food allergies highlights emergency care. The staple of acute care remains epinephrine in association with antihistamines and steroids. The greatest threat remains undertreatment for this group of disorders and underutilization of epinephrine. Those who have been treated for a food allergy need a follow-up allergist evaluation, guidance of food avoidance, and avoidance of f...

Dogs at home and at the workplace: effects on allergies and mental health
SummarySince the beginning of domestication, the living conditions which are shared between humans and companion animals have changed dramatically. More time is spent together indoors, not only in urban places, but also in rural areas. Among the positive aspects is the asthma- and allergy-protective effect of living with pets during fetal development and infancy. In addition, there are benefits in terms of social interactions and mental health for humans and, as far as can be assessed, also for companion animals. Animals, especially dogs, are also brought more often to workplaces and schools. Thus, a  number of the positi...

Evaluation of Der p 10 in a Cohort of European Children: Role of Molecular Diagnostics and Clinical Features
CONCLUSION: The component-resolved diagnosis gave us a deeper understanding of patients' molecular sensitization profiles. Our study showed that a fair proportion of children sensitive to Der p 1 or Der p 2 are also sensitive to Der p 10. However, many patients sensitized to all three molecules had a high risk of asthma and anaphylaxis. Therefore, the assessment of Der p 10 sensitization should be considered in atopic patients with sensitization to Der p 1 and Der p 2 to avoid encountering possible adverse reactions after ingesting foods containing tropomyosins.PMID:37378067 | PMC:PMC10292945 | DOI:10.1155/2023/5551305

Advanced glycation end products and allergy
AbstractThis review aims to summarize our current knowledge of the impact of advanced glycation products (AGEs) in the diet on the development of allergies. The association between modern dietary patterns that contain high amounts of thermally processed food products, and the development of allergies is of great concern. One group of molecules generated by such dietary patterns is AGEs resulting from the Maillard reaction (MR). Evidence suggests that the MR could influence the allergenicity of food proteins because it alters the structure of proteins by modifying lysine and arginine residues with various types of AGE struc...

Understanding food allergy through neuroimmune interactions in the gastrointestinal tract
Ann Allergy Asthma Immunol. 2023 Jun 16:S1081-1206(23)00419-2. doi: 10.1016/j.anai.2023.06.015. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFood allergies are adverse immune reactions to food proteins in the absence of oral tolerance and the incidence of allergies to food including peanut, cow's milk and shellfish has been increasing globally. While advancements have been made towards understanding the contributions of the type 2 immune response to allergic sensitisation, crosstalk between these immune cells and neurons of the enteric nervous system is an area of emerging interest in the pathophysiology of food allergy, given the close ...
