Eosinophilic esophagitis is a chronic, antigen-driven, immune-mediated disease characterized by esophageal dysfunction and significant eosinophilic infiltration. Its rising incidence and prevalence over recent decades reflect both increased clinical awareness and the influence of environmental factors such as dietary patterns and allergen exposure. Among food allergens, cow's milk proteins are the most commonly implicated triggers, contributing to esophageal inflammation through complex immunological pathways involving both IgE-mediated and non-IgE-mediated mechanisms.

Allergic diseases commonly coexist, manifesting in a sequence described as the "allergic march". This study aimed to evaluate TSLP's and IL-1β's potential as biomarkers in both single and multi-pediatric atopic diseases like atopic eczema, food allergy, and anaphylaxis and analyze specific SNPs in the TSLP and IL-1β genes to determine their associations with their occurrence and severity. This analysis included 109 atopic children diagnosed with atopic dermatitis, food allergy, or anaphylaxis alongside a control group of 57 non-atopic children.

Allergic patients are characterized by complex and patient-specific IgE sensitization profiles to various allergens, which are accompanied by different phenotypes of allergic disease. Molecular allergy (MA) diagnosis establishes the patient's IgE reactivity profile at a molecular allergen level and has moved allergology into the "Precision Medicine" era. Molecular allergology started in the late 1980s with the isolation of the first allergen-encoding DNA sequences.

Recent studies have begun to emphasize the significant role of gut microbiota in immune modulation and its potential association with the development of AR. This research aims to characterize the gut microbiota of patients with AR who are sensitized via inhalation, utilizing 16S rRNA sequencing to shed light on the pathogenesis of AR and identify potential therapeutic targets.

, a crustacean of substantial importance, is a frequent trigger of food allergies. This study examined the molecular and immunological properties of troponin C from (Scy p TnC) as an allergen. The findings indicated that thermal stability of Scy p TnC comprised 150 amino acids and facilitated the induction of CD63/CD203c in basophils from crab allergy patients.
