Type-I food allergies are hypersensitive reactions compromising the immune organs and epithelial barriers. To investigate the organ-specific proteomic alterations of the allergy responses, the spleen and intestine of mice sensitized with high (shrimp and clam) and weak (fish) allergenic tropomyosins were analyzed using sequential windowed acquisition of all theoretical fragment ion mass spectra (SWATH-MS)-based proteomics. The results showed that Th1 and Th2 tropomyosin-induced responses in the spleen are characterized by the unique upregulation of innate (cochlin) and adaptive (Ig κ chain V-III region PC 7175) immune regulators, respectively. In the intestine, tropomyosin allergy concurred with the downregulation of 35 differentiating proteins featuring the overall impairment of metabolic pathways, absorption processes and ammonium ion responses. These data provide new functional biomarkers of tropomyosin-induced immune responses as well as candidate targets for intervention.

Background: Protein expression analysis of isolated brain microvessels provides valuable insights into the function of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). However, isolation of brain microvessels from human brain tissue, particularly in small quantities, poses significant challenges. This study presents a method for isolating brain microvessels from a small amount of frozen human brain tissue, adapting techniques from an established mouse brain capillary isolation method.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine-disrupting chemical (EDC), associated with obesity and insulin resistance. The FDA prohibited the use of BPA-based polycarbonate resins in infant formula packaging; thus, its analogs, viz. Bisphenol S (BPS) and Bisphenol F (BPF) were considered alternatives in epoxy resins, plastics, and food cans.
