Evidence for a Modulatory Effect of a 12‐Week Pomegranate Juice Intervention on the Transcriptional Response in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients Reducing Fecal Calprotectin Levels: Findings From a Proof‐of‐Principle Study

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
This study investigated how pomegranate juice affects inflammation in patients with inflammatory bowel disease who are currently in remission. After 12 weeks of drinking pomegranate juice, patients showed reduced markers of intestinal inflammation.

The α-Gal Syndrome and Potential Mechanisms

Frontiers in Allergy, 2021
The α-Gal syndrome is a complex allergic disease characterized by the development of specific IgE antibodies against the carbohydrate galactose-α-1,3-galactose (α-Gal), an oligosaccharide present in cells and tissues of non-primate mammals.

Nutritional priorities to support GLP‐1 therapy for obesity: A joint Advisory from the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, the American Society for Nutrition, the Obesity Medicine Association, and The Obesity Society

Obesity, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Glucagon‐like peptide 1 receptor agonists and combination medications (hereafter collectively referred to as GLP‐1s) are shifting the treatment landscape for obesity. However, real‐world challenges and limited clinician and public knowledge on nutritional and lifestyle interventions can limit GLP‐1 efficacy, equitable results, and ...

Alpha-Gal and Cross-Reactive Carbohydrate Determinants in the N-Glycans of Salivary Glands in the Lone Star Tick, Amblyomma americanum

Vaccines, 2020
Ticks are important ectoparasites and vectors of numerous human and animal pathogens. Ticks secrete saliva that contains various bioactive materials to evade the host defense system, and often facilitates the pathogen transmission.

Allergic Reactivity and Memory Occur Independently of Sequential Switching Through IgG1

Allergy, EarlyView.
Sequential switching through IgG1 is not required to produce IgE with sufficient allergen‐binding affinity to cause anaphylaxis against food allergens. Sequential switching through IgG1 does not confer a competitive advantage to become an IgE‐expressing cell.

Delayed anaphylaxis to alpha-gal, an oligosaccharide in mammalian meat

Allergology International, 2016
IgE-mediated hypersensitivity refers to immune reactions that can be rapidly progressing and, in the case of anaphylaxis, are occasionally fatal. To that end, identification of the associated allergen is important for facilitating both education and ...

High levels of alpha-gal with large variation in the salivary glands of lone star ticks fed on human blood

Scientific Reports, 2023
Tick bites, associated with the secretion of tick saliva containing the xenoglycan galactose-alpha-1, 3-galactose (alpha-gal or aGal), are recognized as the causal factors of alpha-Gal syndrome (AGS; or red meat allergy) in humans.

Basophil Activation Test: Bridging Allergy and Oncology for Diagnostic, Therapeutic and Prognostic Applications in AllergoOncology: An EAACI Position Paper

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The basophil activation test (BAT) is gaining increasing relevance as an ex vivo functional assay in allergy to evaluate IgE‐mediated hypersensitivity reactions to food allergens, venoms, and drugs and to monitor tolerance induction. Establishing universal standard operating protocols has been difficult, due to several challenges including ...
