- Abstract:
- ... We recently described a dominant role for conformational epitopes on the group 1 allergen of the mountain cedar (Juniperus ashei, Cupressaceae), Jun a 1, in pollen hypersensitivity in South Central U.S.A. Since these epitopes are surface exposed and are likely to be flexible, they may be susceptible to molecular or physical perturbations. This may make Jun a 1 a potential target for new forms of t ...

- Abstract:
- ... Crab meat and roe are highly nutritious delicacies in China. While extensive research has been conducted for allergens derived from crab-meat, data relevant to the allergenic potential of crab roe derived proteins, of which hemocyanin is a principal contender, are almost entirely absent. Using bioinformatics prediction and IgE-binding assays, the three principal immunodominant epitopes of hemocyan ...

- Abstract:
- ... Longitudinal data on serum specific sIgE and sIgG4 to allergen component of Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (Der p) during allergen immunotherapy (AIT) are limited in Chinese populations. We serially followed up serum sIgE and sIgG4 to Der p and its components (Der p 1 and 2) in 51 Der p-sensitized children receiving guideline-based medications alone and additional 36-month AIT. The the Der p 1 and ...

- Abstract:
- ... Chickpea (CP), a legume of the family Fabaceae, is an important nutrient-rich food providing protein, essential amino acids, vitamins, dietary fibre, and minerals. Unfortunately, several IgE-binding proteins in CP have been detected that are responsible for allergic manifestations in sensitized population. Therefore, the prevalence of CP induced allergy prompted us towards purification, characteri ...
