Differential alpha-gal expression during Amblyomma hebraeum and Rhipicephalus evertsi tick feeding and development: A driver for the development of alpha-gal syndrome in South Africa [PDF]
Background: The presence of galactose-α-1,3-galactose (alpha-gal) in tick salivary antigens has been implicated to initiate host IgE responses resulting in sensitization to alpha-gal.

Alpha-gal syndrome: exploring the link between tick bites and red meat allergy
Introduction: Alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) arises from tick bites, triggering excessive IgE antibodies to galactose-α-1,3-galactose (α-Gal). Symptoms vary, often appearing post-α-Gal ingestion, ranging from mild to severe, including urticaria, angioedema and

IgG to Galactose-Alpha-1,3-Galactose: Impact of Alpha-Gal IgE Sensitization, Blood Type, and Tick Bites [PDF]
Background: Antibodies to galactose-alpha-1,3-galactose (alpha-gal), particularly the IgM and IgG isotypes, are abundant in human sera. These antibodies are known to be an important xenotransplantation barrier, but the full implications of these ...
