Immunotherapy Effectiveness in Treating Peanut Hypersensitivity: A Systemic Review. [PDF]

Cureus, 2022
Peanut hypersensitivity is one of the top causes of food-related allergic responses and death in high-income countries. As a result, the goal of this study was to see if various forms of immunotherapies can help reduce the severity of peanut hypersensitivity reactions.

Recombinant peanut allergen Ara h I expression and IgE binding in patients with peanut hypersensitivity. [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1995
Peanut allergy is a significant health problem because of the frequency, the potential severity, and the chronicity of the allergic sensitivity. Serum IgE from patients with documented peanut hypersensitivity reactions and a peanut cDNA expression library were used to identify clones that encode peanut allergens.

Diacylglycerol kinase ζ deficiency in a non-CD4+ T-cell compartment leads to increased peanut hypersensitivity [PDF]

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2011
Peanut sensitization in diacylglycerol kinase zeta (DGKζ) deficient mice led to elevated peanut-IgE levels and severe anaphylaxis. DGKζ deficient CD4+T cells did not account for the phenotype. Future studies will determine which immune lineage caused increased food hypersensitivity.

Mapping and Mutational Analysis of the IgE‐Binding Epitopes on Ara h 1, a Legume Vicilin Protein and a Major Allergen in Peanut Hypersensitivity [PDF]

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1997
Peanut allergy is a significant health problem because of the prevelance and potential severity of the allergic reaction. Serum IgE from patients with documented peanut hypersensitivity reactions and overlapping peptides were used to identify the IgE‐binding epitopes on the major peanut allergen, Ara h 1.

Therapeutic effects of a fermented soy product on peanut hypersensitivity is associated with modulation of T‐helper type 1 and T‐helper type 2 responses [PDF]

Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 2008
SummaryBackground ImmuBalance™ is a koji fungus (Aspergillus oryzae) and lactic acid fermented soybean product. This unique production process is believed to create a food supplement that helps to induce or maintain normal immune response.Objective To assess possible therapeutic effects of ImmuBalance™ on peanut (PN) hypersensitivity using ...

The safety and efficacy of oral immunotherapy compared to epicutaneous immunotherapy in peanut allergen desensitisation amongst the paediatric cohort—a narrative review [PDF]

Frontiers in Allergy
Peanut allergies result from a type 1 hypersensitivity reaction, with a prevalence of approximately 1% in children under 5 years of age. The allergens that instigate this reaction are the peanut proteins (Ara h 1–Ara h 8) for which IgE antibodies are ...

Maternal and postnatal dietary probiotic supplementation enhances splenic regulatory T helper cell population and reduces peanut allergen-induced hypersensitivity responses in mice

Immunobiology, 2014
Neonatal to early childhood is the critical period for establishing a balance of T helper 1 (Th1) versus T helper 2 (Th2) cellular immunity within the gut, which is strongly influenced by the source and establishment of gut microflora. Probiotic administration has been shown to attenuate Th2-biased cellular immunity and predisposition to food allergies.
