Recombinant Fusion Allergens, Cry j 1 and Cry j 2 from Japanese Cedar Pollen, Conjugated with Polyethylene Glycol Potentiate the Attenuation of Cry j 1-Specific IgE Production in Cry j 1-Sensitized Mice and Japanese Cedar Pollen Allergen-Sensitized Monkeys [PDF]

International Archives of Allergy and Immunology, 2015
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Japanese cedar <i>(Cryptomeria japonica)</i> pollinosis is the most prevalent seasonal rhinitis in Japan. A standardized Japanese cedar pollen extract (CPE) containing 1.5-4.2 μg of Cry j 1 is currently the highest-concentration extract available for allergen-specific immunotherapy (SIT ...

Characterization of the Physical Form of Allergenic Cry j 1 in the Urban Atmosphere and Determination of Cry j 1 Denaturation by Air Pollutants [PDF]

Asian Journal of Atmospheric Environment, 2012
In this study, we characterized the physical form of allergenic Cry j 1 in the urban atmosphere. Through an immunofluorescence antibody method, we showed that allergenic Cry j 1 exists as fine particles (≤1.1 μm). To determine Cry j 1 concentrations and its particle size distribution, we used the ELISA method to confirm that most Cry j 1 exists as fine

Clinical trials of Cry j 1 and Cry j 2 T-cell epitope peptide-expressing rice in patients with Japanese cedar pollinosis

Asian Pacific Journal of Allergy and Immunology, 2022
In allergic models, administration of rice that expresses a hybrid peptide consisting of 7 major T cell epitopes of Cry j 1 and Cry j 2 (7Crp), suppressed allergic symptoms, IgE elevation and specific T cell response to Japanese cedar pollen.To evaluate the efficacy and safety of 7Crp-expressing rice in patients with Japanese cedar pollinosis.A 24-week

The soothing effect of phlorotannins on cedar pollinosis in Cry j 1-stimulated mice

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2023
ABSTRACT The antiallergic properties of phlorotannins, algal polyphenols, have been widely reported. This study examined the soothing effect of phlorotannin concentrate (PTC) from Eisenia nipponica on cedar pollinosis in Cry j 1-stimulated mice.

Release behaviour of cryptomeria japonica pollen allergenic cry J 1 and cry J 2 in rainwater containing air pollutants [PDF]

International Journal of Sustainable Development and Planning, 2014
Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) pollinosis is the most popular pollinosis in Japan. In recent years, it was reported that the most Cryptomeria japonica pollen allergenic species were scattered as fiparticles in the urban atmosphere. It is thought that allergenic fi ne particles are responsible for inducing asthma by breaking into lower ...

Genetic and Molecular Characterization of a Cryptochrome from the Filamentous Fungus Neurospora crassa [PDF]

, 2010
In plants and animals, cryptochromes function as either photoreceptors or circadian clock components. We have examined the cryptochrome from the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa and demonstrate that Neurospora cry encodes a DASH-type cryptochrome ...

Young children's perspectives of time: New directions for co‐constructing understandings of quality in ECEC

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Children's relationship with time in preschools is an under‐researched area. Young children rarely know how to measure time using a clock, but their experiences of time may contribute to understanding children's well‐being and debates about quality in preschools.

Glycoform Analysis of Japanese Cedar Pollen Allergen, Cry j 1

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2005
In our previous study (Y. Kimura et al., Biosci. Biotechnol. Biochem., 69, 137-144 (2005)), we found that plant complex type N-glycans harboring Lewis a epitope are linked to the mountain cedar pollen allergen Jun a 1. Jun a 1 is a glycoprotein highly homologous with Japanese cedar pollen glycoallergen, Cry j 1.
