Allergens and molecular diagnostics of shellfish allergy
Shellfish belongs to "The Big 8" food groups causing allergy, which often does not outgrow during childhood. Shellfish is one of the main food allergens in adults and constitutes a diverse group of species subdivided into crustaceans and mollusks, which seem to include similar but also different allergens. Several pan-allergens are characterized in detail, including tropomyosin and arginine kin...
متن کاملMould allergens: Where do we stand with molecular allergy diagnostics?
The official WHO/IUIS database (www.allergen.org) currently lists 77 mould allergens from a variety of protein families. To date, only eight recombinant single allergens from three mould species are available for molecular allergy diagnosis of mould sensitization. These include rAlt a 1, the major allergen in Alternaria alternata-sensitized individuals, and enolase rAlt a 6 with it potential cr...
متن کاملAnaphylaxis to Insect Venom Allergens: Role of Molecular Diagnostics
Anaphylaxis due to Hymenoptera stings is one of the most severe consequences of IgE-mediated hypersensitivity reactions. Although allergic reactions to Hymenoptera stings are often considered as a general model for the underlying principles of allergic disease, diagnostic tests are still hampered by a lack of specificity and venom immunotherapy by severe side effects and incomplete protection. ...
متن کاملPollen Allergens for Molecular Diagnosis
Pollen allergens are one of the main causes of type I allergies affecting up to 30% of the population in industrialized countries. Climatic changes affect the duration and intensity of pollen seasons and may together with pollution contribute to increased incidences of respiratory allergy and asthma. Allergenic grasses, trees, and weeds often present similar habitats and flowering periods compr...
متن کاملConsenting for molecular diagnostics.
The growing use of molecular diagnostics poses a wide range of issues and questions concerning informed consent that researchers, health care providers, and others will increasingly need to address. Molecular diagnostics are advancing more rapidly than our ability to decide how best to respond to their complex medical, ethical, legal, psychological, and social implications. Although some of the...
