Digital health shopping assistant with React Native: a simple technological solution to a complex health problem [PDF]

2022 International Conference on Intelligent Data Science Technologies and Applications (IDSTA), 2022, pp. 34-40, 2022
Today, more and more people are reporting allergies, which can range from simple reactions close to discomfort to anaphylactic shocks. Other people may not be allergic but avoid certain foods for personal reasons. Daily food shopping of these people is hampered by the fact that unwanted ingredients can be hidden in any food, and it is difficult to find

Regulation and directed inhibition of ECP production by human neutrophils

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundNeutrophils are involved in the pathophysiology of allergic asthma, where the Eosinophil Cationic Protein (ECP) is a critical inflammatory mediator.

IL‐13 determines specific IgE responses and SARS‐CoV‐2 immunity after mild COVID‐19 and novel mRNA vaccination

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 52, Issue 12, Page 1972-1979, December 2022., 2022
To investigate atopic immune reactions in response to SARS‐CoV‐2 mRNA vaccinations or mild infections serum IgE and cytokines were analyzed. An atopic environment prone to reactions against aeroallergens was revealed in convalescents but not vaccinated.

Tus-Ter-lock immuno-PCR assays for the sensitive detection of tropomyosin-specific IgE antibodies [PDF]

Bioanalysis, 2014, Vol. 6, No. 4, Pages 465-476, 2016
Background: The increasing prevalence of food allergies requires development of specific and sensitive tests capable of identifying the allergen responsible for the disease. The development of serologic tests that can detect specific IgE antibodies to allergenic proteins would therefore be highly received.

Allergen Peptides, Recombinant Allergens and Hypoallergens for Allergen-Specific Immunotherapy [PDF]

Current Treatment Options in Allergy, 2014
Allergic diseases are among the most common health issues worldwide. Specific immunotherapy has remained the only disease-modifying treatment, but it is not effective in all patients and may cause side effects. Over the last 25 years, allergen molecules from most prevalent allergen sources have been isolated and produced as recombinant proteins.

Mouse dendritic cells and other myeloid subtypes in healthy lymph nodes and skin: 26‐Color flow cytometry panel for immune phenotyping

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 52, Issue 12, Page 2006-2009, December 2022., 2022
This novel 26‐color flow cytometry panel allows the detailed immune phenotyping of the complex network of myeloid cells in murine lymph nodes and skin. With the optimized panel the different murine DC‐subsets and other myeloid cell types can be identified and further characterized for co‐stimulatory and inhibitory surface molecules.

How Do Pollen Allergens Sensitize?

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Plant pollen is one of the main sources of allergens causing allergic diseases such as allergic rhinitis and asthma. Several allergens in plant pollen are panallergens which are also present in other allergen sources.

Incorporation of T-cell epitopes from tetanus and diphtheria toxoids into in-silico-designed hypoallergenic vaccine may enhance the protective immune response against allergens [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2020
Objective(s): New generation of allergy vaccines is capable of promoting the development of protective IgG and blocking the functionality of allergen-specific IgE. We incorporated universal and powerful T-cell epitopes from tetanus and diphtheria toxoids

Predefined domain specific embeddings of food concepts and recipes: A case study on heterogeneous recipe datasets [PDF]

, 2023
Although recipe data are very easy to come by nowadays, it is really hard to find a complete recipe dataset - with a list of ingredients, nutrient values per ingredient, and per recipe, allergens, etc. Recipe datasets are usually collected from social media websites where users post and publish recipes.

Hosts, microbiomes, and the evolution of critical windows

Evolution Letters, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 412-425, December 2022., 2022
Abstract The absence of microbial exposure early in life leaves individuals vulnerable to immune overreaction later in life, manifesting as immunopathology, autoimmunity, or allergies. A key factor is thought to be a “critical window” during which the host's immune system can “learn” tolerance, and beyond which learning is no longer possible.
