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: 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.

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.

This study aimed to characterize the profile of probable anaphylaxis cases treated at a private pediatric hospital emergency department in São Paulo. It investigated triggering factors, the presence of cofactors, treatments administered, and follow-up for these cases through interviews with the patients' families. A single-center cross-sectional study analyzed medical records of children and adolescents treated between 2016 and 2020.

Background: There is ongoing debate about the safety and efficacy of epicutaneous immunotherapy (EPIT) in treating food allergies. The systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of EPIT.
Methods: We systematically searched international trial registers (ClinicalTrials.
