Food Allergens of Plant Origin. [PDF]
Foods, 2023 This review presents an update on the physical, chemical, and biological properties of food allergens in plant sources, focusing on the few protein families that contribute to multiple food allergens from different species and protein families recently found to contain food allergens.

Chitinases as Food Allergens [PDF]
Molecules, 2019 Food allergies originate from adverse immune reactions to some food components. Ingestion of food allergens can cause effects of varying severity, from mild itching to severe anaphylaxis reactions. Currently there are no clues to predict the allergenic potency of a molecule, nor are cures for food allergies available. Cutting-edge research on allergens

Allergic reactions to emerging food allergens in Canadian children. [PDF]
Allergy Asthma Clin Immunol, 2021 Most Canadian food allergy data has focused on Health Canada’s priority food allergens. This study describes which non-priority (emerging) food allergens were most commonly reported by Canadian parents and categorized/confirmed by allergists. A secondary

Immune sensing of food allergens promotes avoidance behaviour. [PDF]
Nature, 2023 A study using mouse models of food allergy shows that allergic sensitization drives antigen-specific avoidance behaviour mediated by immunoglobulin E antibodies and mast cells.

Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology, 1997 A food allergen may be defined as a substance that reacts with IgE antibodies, induces allergic sensitisation or induces allergic reactions. Some allergens only induce allergic sensitisation but do not provoke symptoms, while others bind IgE but do not induce mast cell degranulation. There is no common structure that can predict whether a given antigen

The Structural Flexibility of PR-10 Food Allergens. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2022 PR-10 proteins constitute a major cause of food allergic reactions. Birch-pollen-related food allergies are triggered by the immunologic cross-reactivity of IgE antibodies with structurally homologous PR-10 proteins that are present in birch pollen and ...

Allergol Select, 2021 In food allergy, only a restricted number of protein families have been identified to contain allergenic proteins. These can be further grouped into major allergens, responsible for inducing allergic reactions in the majority of patients allergic to the food source, as compared to minor allergens only affecting a small number of food allergic patients.

Common food allergens and cross-reactivity. [PDF]
J Food Allergy, 2020 The most clinically relevant food allergens are cow's milk, hen's egg, peanut, tree nuts, wheat, soy, fish, shellfish, and seeds. Heat-stable food allergens have molecular characteristics that enhance protein stability and gastrointestinal absorption and

Bioinformatics and Food Allergens [PDF]
Journal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 2004 Abstract Bioinformatics can play an important role in developing improved technology for the detection and characterization of food allergens. However, the full realization of this potential will depend on the development of allergen-specific databases as well as improved methods for data mining within these databases.

Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, 2009 A considerable proportion of the general public experiences negative health effects triggered by certain components of their habitual diet. Susceptible persons can develop an intolerance, e.g. against lactose, owing to the lack of a digestive enzyme, some cannot tolerate certain food additives or increased levels of certain amino acids, e.g. glutamate,
