Enhanced Effect of -Lactoglobulin Immunization in Mice with Mild Intestinal Deterioration Caused by Low-Dose Dextran Sulphate Sodium: A New Experimental Approach to Allergy Studies.

Background/objectives: Cow's milk allergy is one of the most common food allergies in children, and its pathomechanism is still under investigation. Recently, an increasing number of studies have linked food allergy to intestinal barrier dysfunction. The present study aimed to investigate changes in the intestinal microenvironment during the development of -lactoglobulin (-lg) allergy under conditions of early intestinal dysfunction.

Study protocol: The role of milk matrix lipids in programming the immunoreactivity of proteins derived from lactic acid bacteria.

Food allergy is widely recognized as a significant health issue, having escalated into a global epidemic, subsequently giving rise to the development of numerous additional complications. Currently, the sole efficient method to curb the progression of allergy is through the implementation of an elimination diet. The increasing number of newly identified allergens makes it harder to completely remove or avoid them effectively.

Recent Advances in Fermented Milk and Meat Products-Quality, Nutritional Value and Safety.

Products of animal origin have always been very popular among consumers due to their nutritional and sensory value [...

Phytate Hydrolysate Differently Modulates the Immune Response of Human Healthy and Cancer Colonocytes to Intestinal Bacteria.

(1) Phytic acid (PA) is a component of cereal seeds and legumes, therefore its consumption is much higher in a vegan and vegetarian diet compared to a conventional diet. The diet is the main driver of metabolic activity of gut microbiota, therefore, the ability to degrade phytates by the microbiota of vegans significantly exceeds that of the gut microbiota of omnivores. The aim of the study was to investigate the early phase of the immune response of colonocytes treated with an enzymatic hydrolysate of phytic acid (hPA120) and gut bacteria.

The Manifold Bioactivity and Immunoreactivity of Microbial Proteins of Cow and Human Mature Milk in Late Lactation.

(1) Human milk (HM) is a source of many microorganisms, whose structure contains microbial protein (MP). In addition to the known health-promoting properties of HM, many activities, including immunoreactivity, may result from the presence of MP. Cow's milk (CM)-derived MP may be 10 times more abundant than MP derived from HM.

Phytate and Butyrate Differently Influence the Proliferation, Apoptosis and Survival Pathways in Human Cancer and Healthy Colonocytes.

The colonic epithelium is never exposed to a single factor, therefore studies on the effect of combinations of factors naturally and persistently present in the intestines are of special importance for understanding the phenomena occurring at this place. The aim of the study was to investigate the combined effect of 1 mM phytate and 1 mM butyrate (PA1B1) on cell lines derived from cancer (HCT116 and HT-29) and healthy (NCM460D) human colonic epithelium. Colorimetric and flow cytometry methods were used to determine the proliferation rate, cell cycle, and apoptosis.

The effect of lactic acid fermentation with different bacterial strains on the chemical composition, immunoreactive properties, and sensory quality of sweet buttermilk.

This paper describes the successful development of new low-immunoreactive buttermilk (BM)-based formulations which were fermented with 31 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and Bifidobacterium strains. The aim of this study was to create a new formula, which can serve as potential candidates for the immunotherapy of allergy. Preparations were tested for their content of biologically active compounds, such as proteins, peptides, phospholipids, and short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), as well as for the survivability of LAB and sensory quality.

Two Faces of Milk Proteins Peptides with Both Allergenic and Multidimensional Health Beneficial Impact- Integrated / Approach.

The main food-origin antigens that the infant's body is in contact with are cow's milk proteins (CMP). Still, CMP are one of the main sources of beneficial biologically active peptides that play a role in treatment of non-communicable diseases. Safe methods to quickly predict the sensitizing potential of food proteins among their range of health-promoting properties are essential.

Effect of Low-Immunogenic Yogurt Drinks and Probiotic Bacteria on Immunoreactivity of Cow's Milk Proteins and Tolerance Induction-In Vitro and In Vivo Studies.

There is no effective therapy for milk allergy. The role of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and probiotics in protection against allergy-related outcomes is still under investigation. The aim of the study was to evaluate the immunomodulative and therapeutic potential of yogurt drinks in cow's milk allergy (CMA) management.

Gestational Dysfunction-Driven Diets and Probiotic Supplementation Correlate with the Profile of Allergen-Specific Antibodies in the Serum of Allergy Sufferers.

Background: Maternal diet has significant effects on development of childhood atopic disease and hypersensitivity development. However, the gestational dysfunctions demanding special diets are becoming a widespread phenomenon, their immunological implications can be manifested in the profile of antibodies in the offspring's serum.

Methods: 153 allergic and 150 healthy individuals were diagnosed for allergy using specific antibody and cytokine immunoassay tests.
