Like adults, children taking beta-blockers are at risk for serious hemodynamic instability in case of anaphylaxis. We report a case of severe bradycardia associated with anaphylactic shock after aprotinin in a beta-blocked child, which was resistant to intravenous epinephrine and vascular filling but was treated successfully with isoproterenol.

Background: Studies of human IgE and its targeted epitopes on allergens have been very limited. We have an established method to immortalize IgE encoding B cells from allergic individuals.
Objective: To develop an unbiased and comprehensive panel of peanut-specific human IgE mAbs to characterize key immunodominant antigenic regions and epitopes on peanut allergens to map the molecular interactions responsible for inducing anaphylaxis.

Background: The incidence of anaphylaxis is increasing worldwide. However, there is a lack of data on anaphylaxis trends in Türkiye. This study aims to analyse trends in anaphylaxis-related emergency department (ED) visits and examines factors associated with fatal anaphylaxis in Türkiye.

Background: Human monoclonal IgE antibodies recognizing peanut allergens have recently become available, but we lack a detailed understanding of how these IgEs target allergens.
Objective: To determine the molecular details of the antibody-allergen interaction for a panel of clinically important human IgE monoclonal antibodies and to develop strategies to disrupt disease causing antibody-allergen interactions.
Methods: We identified candidates from a panel of epitope binned human IgE monoclonals that recognize two important and homologous peanut allergens, Ara h 2 and Ara h 6.
Effects of Food Processing on Allergenicity.
Curr Allergy Asthma Rep
January 2025
Temerty Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada.
Purpose Of Review: There is an increasing awareness among clinicians that industrial and household food processing methods can increase or decrease the allergenicity of foods. Modification to allergen properties through processing can enable dietary liberations. Reduced allergenicity may also allow for lower risk immunotherapy approaches.
