Laboratory determinations in Anisakis simplex allergy

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1996
Anaphylactic reactions caused by the fish nematode, Anisakis simplex, after ingestion of parasitized fish, have been described.This study was undertaken to confirm, by histamine release tests, that A. simplex is able to trigger IgE-mediated reactions and to describe the serologic profiles in this sensitization.Twelve patients who had anaphylactic ...

Characterization of allergens of Anisakis simplex

Allergy, 2003
Background:  Anisakis simplex is an intestinal parasite of sea mammals. The larvae infect crustaceans, cephalopods and fish. Humans may consume A. simplex third stage larvae (L3) when eating infected raw or under‐cooked fish. Consumed larvae cause an inflammatory reaction when they penetrate the digestive mucosa.

Anisakis simplex: sensitization and clinical allergy

Current Opinion in Allergy & Clinical Immunology, 2005
Whereas gastric anisakiasis has been known for several decades, the implications of Anisakis simplex-related allergic disorders had not been thoroughly studied until the late 1990s. This article reviews recent knowledge of allergic disorders ascribed to A.

Anisakis simplex and Anisakis physeteris: Physicochemical properties of larval and adult hemoglobins

Experimental Parasitology, 1979
Abstract To resolve the taxonomic relationship between two types of parasitic nematode larvae (Type I and II) and two species of parasitic nematode adults (Anisakis simplex and A. physeteris) of the aquatic ascarid genus Anisakis, collected in Japanese coastal water, a comparison was made of their hemoglobins' physicochemical properties.

Anisakis simplex and Pseudoterranova decipiens

2003
I. BACKGROUND The consumption of raw or undercooked fish may lead to infection with any of several helminths, the most important being species of the cestode genus Diphyllobothrium, the digenean families Heterophyidae (Heterophyes spp. and Metagonimus yokogawai) and Opisthorchiidae (Clonorchis sinensis and Opisthorchis spp.), and the nematode ...

Sensitization to Anisakis simplex s.l. in a healthy population

Acta Tropica, 2006
The main objective of this study was to determine the degree of sensitization to Anisakis simplex s.l. in healthy population. Using the determination of specific IgE, we studied the seroprevalence against A. simplex s.l. in blood donors selected at random in the region of Antequera (Southern Spain). We detected 22.1%.

Periodate treatment of Anisakis simplex allergens

Allergy, 1997
Moneo I, Audicana MT, Alday E, Curiel G, del Pozo MD, García M. Periodate treatment of Anisakis simplex allergens.Anaphylactic reactions after parasitized fish consumption are mediated by an IgE response. However, positive skin tests and specific IgE can also be found in many asymptomatic subjects who recognize a single medium mol.‐wt.

Occupational conjunctivitis caused by sensitization to Anisakis simplex

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1998
Abstract Anisakis simplex is a fish parasite that causes acute or chronic disease in humans after ingestion of raw or undercooked parasitized fish. 1 However, in recent years hypersensitivity reactions after the ingestion of parasitized fish have been described, mainly urticaria angioedema or even severe anaphylaxis.

Genomic identification of Anisakis simplex isolates

Journal of Helminthology, 1997
AbstractRAPD technique was used to differentiate individuals of Anisakis simplex obtained from Merluccius merluccius, Phycis blennoides, Conger conger and Lepidorhombus boscii, from the North Atlantic Ocean. The amplification patterns of the host DNA controls were markedly different from those obtained for the parasitic material.

Immunopathogenesis of human gastrointestinal infection by Anisakis simplex

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1999
Anisakis simplex is a parasite of fish, and in the case of human infestation, it should be considered as a possible cause of gastrointestinal disease, especially in countries where raw or undercooked fish is a frequent food. Clinical features of anisakiasis may simulate acute abdominal pain, such as that found in patients with gastric ulcers ...
