Immune response evolution in peanut epicutaneous immunotherapy for peanut‐allergic children

open access: yesAllergy, Volume 78, Issue 9, Page 2467-2476, September 2023., 2023
This phase 3 double‐blind placebo‐controlled food challenge examined serum‐specific IgG4 and IgE (whole peanut and components) in the subjects enrolled in Efficacy and Safety of Viaskin Peanut in Children With IgE‐Mediated Peanut Allergy study. Among 4‐ to 11‐year‐old participants, peanut‐specific IgG4 levels could distinguish DBV712‐treated subjects ...

An update on recent developments and highlights in food allergy

open access: yesAllergy, Volume 78, Issue 9, Page 2344-2360, September 2023., 2023
Abstract While both the incidence and general awareness of food allergies is increasing, the variety and clinical availability of therapeutics remain limited. Therefore, investigations into the potential factors contributing to the development of food allergy (FA) and the mechanisms of natural tolerance or induced desensitization are required.

Peanut allergy burden survey: Factors associated with health‐related quality of life in adolescents

open access: yesClinical and Translational Allergy, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Patients with peanut allergy (PA) experience significant burden of illness, which impacts health‐related quality of life (HRQoL), particularly in adolescence. There is a paucity of research evaluating drivers of HRQoL scores. Methods A prospective, online survey of adolescents with self‐reported, provider‐diagnosed PA completed from

EAACI Molecular Allergology User's Guide 2.0

open access: yesPediatric Allergy and Immunology, Volume 34, Issue S28, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Since the discovery of immunoglobulin E (IgE) as a mediator of allergic diseases in 1967, our knowledge about the immunological mechanisms of IgE‐mediated allergies has remarkably increased. In addition to understanding the immune response and clinical symptoms, allergy diagnosis and management depend strongly on the precise identification of ...

No impact of filaggrin deficiency on the efficacy of epicutaneous immunotherapy in a murine model

open access: yesAIMS Allergy and Immunology, 2017
Background: Epicutaneous immunotherapy (EPIT®), currently investigated in the treatment of food allergy, needs the integrity of the skin to warrant safety and efficacy. Mutations in the gene encoding the key epidermal protein filaggrin (FLG) are risk

Pre-Existing Humoral Immunity Enhances Epicutaneously-Administered Allergen Capture by Skin DC and Their Migration to Local Lymph Nodes

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Due to its richness in antigen presenting cells, e.g., dendritic cells (DC), the skin has been identified as a promising route for immunotherapy and vaccination.
