متن کاملGenetic engineering and the allergy issue.
Although much has been learned since the field was put on a scientific basis at the turn of the last century, our knowledge of food allergies is far from complete. It is still unclear, for example, why only certain individuals are affected and why, even among them, the problem is often restricted to childhood. It is also not clear why the allergies caused by various nuts and aquatic animals ten...
متن کاملChemical respiratory allergy: reverse engineering an adverse outcome pathway.
Allergic sensitisation of the respiratory tract by chemicals is associated with rhinitis and asthma and remains an important occupational health issue. Although less than 80 chemicals have been confirmed as respiratory allergens the adverse health effects can be serious, and in rare instances can be fatal, and there are, in addition, related socioeconomic issues. The challenges that chemical re...
متن کاملA genetic engineering strategy to eliminate peanut allergy.
Peanut allergy is an IgE-mediated hypersensitivity reaction with an increasing prevalence worldwide. Despite its seriousness, to date, there is no cure. Genetic engineering strategies can provide a solution. The post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) model can be used effectively to knock out the production of allergenic proteins in peanut by specific degradation of the endogenous target me...
متن کاملDesloratadine for the Relief of Nasal and Non-nasal Allergy Symptoms: An Observational Study
INTRODUCTION: The rates of allergic rhinitis, allergic asthma, and atopic eczema range from 6% to 16% globally. Second-generation antihistamines have been shown to be safe and effective for the treatment of symptoms of allergic disease. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of desloratadine, a nonsedating second-generation antihistamine, in the treatment of common allergy symptoms. ME...
