Article Synopsis
- Some allergens with protease activity may interact with the host's immune system, influencing their allergenic properties.
- The study focused on whether the major allergen Der p 1 from house dust mites activates the innate immune response in Drosophila melanogaster, avoiding adaptive immune system effects.
- Results showed that Der p 1 triggers immune responses through the IMD pathway and cleaves a specific receptor, suggesting that this mechanism of danger signaling is significant for understanding the primary allergenicity of such compounds.
