Published: April 2008

The IgE-binding proteins in beer were examined by immunoblotting analysis with sera of patients sensitive to beer. Several proteins were immunoblotted with the sera, and among these, 18-kDa proteins were identified as new IgE-binding proteins in beer. Perhaps they originated from barley as a raw material.

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.

Milk proteins possess an abundance of free amino groups and exhibit diverse spatial structures. During food processing, these properties facilitate their interaction with hydrophobic ligands, such as linolenic acid. Exploring the IgE and IgG binding ability of linolenic acid-milk protein complexes at different temperatures, times, and molar ratios is crucial for controlling the allergenicity of milk proteins in food processing.

Mast cells (MC) are crucial effectors in immediate allergic reactions. Monomeric IgE sensitizes MC and triggers various signaling responses. FcεRI/IgE/antigen crosslinking induces the release of several mediators, including bioactive lipids, but little is known about endocannabinoids (eCBs) secretion.
