چکیده

This study reports an unusual case of repeated anaphylactic episodes to orange and apple without clinical evidence of primary sensitization to peach LTP. In vitro and in vivo tests revealed heat stability of the implicated allergens and also provided new evidence of differences in allergenicity among apple varieties and strong cross reactivity of citrus fruits. "Prick-to-prick" method with fresh fruits proved to be a quick and advantageous tool in investigating allergy to fresh fruits.

Independence of color intensity variation in red flesh apples from the number of repeat units in promoter region of the MdMYB10 gene as an allele to MdMYB1 and MdMYBA

MdMYB10 gene expression results in accumulation of anthocyanin in many tissues including flesh of applefruit. The MdMYB1 and MdMYBA genes are close homologues to MdMYB10 gene and both are responsiblefor red color phenotype in apple fruit skin. In the current study, an apple genome sequence draft analysisindicated that these three genes are located in a unique contig. Further a...

Dose-dependent anaphylaxis to orange juice without detectable specific immunoglobulin E.

Immediate allergic reactions to orange are rare and immunoglobulin (Ig) E–mediated [1]. We report the case of a 28-year-old man with anaphylaxis induced by fresh orange juice. The reaction was dose-dependent and could only be confi rmed by challenge test, because specifi c IgE to orange was undetectable by skin prick test (SPT) and CAP immunoassay. The patient had experienced identical anaphyla...

Hypohydration during exercise in children: effect on thirst, drink preferences, and rehydration.

This study examined changes in children's thirst and drink preferences during exercise-induced hypohydration and their spontaneous rehydration during a 30-min recovery. Twenty-four 9- to 13-year-old children (14 females, 10 males) participated in four intermittent 90-min cycling sessions in the heat (35 degrees C, 20% relative humidity); the sessions differed in the drinks the children were sam...

Blood pressure responses in healthy older people to 50 g carbohydrate drinks with differing glycaemic effects.

The aim of the present study was to determine the effects on blood pressure response of 50 g carbohydrate drinks with differing glycaemic effects in ten healthy elderly subjects (age > 65 years; randomized crossover design). Systolic (SBP), diastolic (DBP) and mean arterial (MAP) blood pressure, heart rate and plasma glucose levels were determined following ingestion of equal volumes (379 ml) o...
