چکیده
IgE, and atopy. Results: We measured the total serum IgE of 155 children. The number of obese and normal weight children with family history of atopic disease who had high level of total serum IgE were 30 and 25 respectively, whereas these children who had normal level of total serum IgE were 6 and 15 respectively [OR 1⁄4 1.9 (95% CI 0.9-3.9)]. On the other hand, obese and normal weight children without family history of atopic disease who had high level of total serum IgE were 21 and 11 respectively, whereas these children who had normal level of total serum IgE were 18 and 29 respectively [OR 1⁄4 1.7 (95% CI 1.1-2.7)]. The number of obese and normal weight children without family history of atopic disease who had atopy were 38 and 9 respectively, whereas these children who had non-atopy were 2 and 31 respectively [OR 1⁄4 13.3 (95% CI 3.5-52)], but there was no relationship between atopy and obesity in group with family history of atopic disease (P 1⁄4 0.314). Conclusions: There were relationship between high level of total serum IgE and obesity in group with and without family history of atopic disease and also relationship between atopy and obesity in group without family history of atopic disease.

Molecular basis for nonanaphylactogenicity of a monoclonal anti-IgE antibody.
IgE Abs mediate allergic responses by binding to specific high affinity receptors (FcepsilonRI) on mast cells and basophils. Therefore, the IgE/FcepsilonRI interaction is a target for clinical intervention in allergic disease. An anti-IgE mAb, termed BSW17, is nonanaphylactogenic, although recognizing IgE bound to FcepsilonRI, and interferes with binding of IgE to FcepsilonRI. Thus, BSW17 repre...
متن کاملDesign of cocktail peptide vaccine against Cytomegalovirus infection
Objective(s):Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) remains a major morbidity and mortality cause in immuno suppressed patients. Therefore, significant effort has been made towards the development of a vaccine. In this study, the expression of the pp65 and gB fusion peptides and Fc domain of mouse IgG2a as a novel delivery system for selective uptake of antigens by antigen-presenting cells (APCs) in Pich...

Allergic manifestations affect 20% 30% of the population in industrialized countries. The global market for asthma and allergy medications has been estimated to exceed USD 6 billion, since 40% of the human population has some form of IgE sensitization to diverse proteins. Most therapeutic intervention strategies cope with the symptoms of allergy without eliminating the underlying cause and many...
متن کاملA nonallergenic birch pollen allergy vaccine consisting of hepatitis PreS-fused Bet v 1 peptides focuses blocking IgG toward IgE epitopes and shifts immune responses to a tolerogenic and Th1 phenotype.
Allergen-specific immunotherapy is the only allergen-specific and disease-modifying treatment for allergy. The construction and characterization of a vaccine for birch pollen allergy is reported. Two nonallergenic peptides, PA and PB, derived from the IgE-reactive areas of the major birch pollen allergen Bet v 1 were fused to the hepatitis B surface protein, PreS, in four recombinant fusion pro...
متن کاملConstruction of a Recombinant Allergen-Producing Probiotic Bacterial Strain: Introduction of a New Line for a Live Oral Vaccine Against Chenopodium album Pollen Allergy
Background: During the last two decades, significant advances have been made in the fields of lactococcal genetics and protein expression. Lactococcus lactis (L. lactis) is an effective vector for protein expression and can be used as an antigen delivery system. Hence, L. lactis is an ideal candidate for mucosal immunotherapy. Profilin (Che a 2), the major allergen in Chenopodium album, is one ...
