Animal Allergens: Common Protein Characteristics Featuring their Allergenicity
Among the many molecules present in our environment, some have the property to induce allergic sensitization and IgE-mediated reactions. The analysis of known major animal allergens has shown that most belong to single protein families: lipocalins and serum albumins for inhalant allergens, EF-hand proteins, tropomyosins and caseins for the digestive allergens. The finding that allergens are often clustered in large families may be related to the fact that common structural, biochemical or functional features contribute to their allergenicity, in addition to external adjuvant factors. Currently, there is no curative treatment for animal allergy available. In order to lower allergic reactions to respiratory allergens in daily life and to food allergens upon accidental exposure, it is important to desensitize concerned patients. Tolerance induction by allergen-specific immunotherapy is in the current focus of an ambitious research. This Research Topic aims to provide a comprehensive view of the basic and recent insights on the allergenicity of animal allergens in view of their structural and functional aspects as well as allergen-specific immunotherapy.
Food Allergy
Food allergy is an adverse immunological reaction to allergens present in food. Up to 4% adults and 8% children are affected by food allergy. The increase in allergic diseases to food has led to the need for better diagnostics and more effective therapeutic approaches. This book describes the molecular biology and immunology of major food allergens, from laboratory based science to clinical immunology, encompassing novel characterisation and quantification methods, the application of recombinant food allergens in molecular diagnosis and the development of novel therapeutics. This book is the ideal reference tool for researchers, students and allergy clinicians to accurately diagnose and manage food allergies.
Molecular Allergy Diagnostics
This book, based on a recent German publication, offers an overview of basic data and recent developments in the groundbreaking field of molecular allergology. It comprehensively explores the origin and structure of single allergen molecules ("components") and their utility in improving the management of type I, IgE-mediated allergic reactions and disorders like allergic respiratory diseases, food allergies, and anaphylaxis. Highly specific testing, called component-resolved diagnostics, aims to identify and utilize single molecules. Over 200 single allergens from plant or animal sources have been applied to single or multiplex laboratory testing for the presence of allergen-specific IgE. Th...
New Insights in Anaphylaxis
Anaphylaxis has usually been studied and understood from an immunological view and the main lethal effects involve the cardio-vascular system. Despite exhaustive efforts exerted in this area of research, much more investigation is needed to mitigate, recognize or prevent this disease. The scope of this Research Topic is to present and discuss the current knowledge of anaphylaxis, from the clinic to the underlying molecular mechanisms. We are thankful to the medical doctors, researchers, and colleagues who have contributed to this issue, as it would not have been possible without their highly valuable expertise in allergy and anaphylaxis research.
Insights into the Etiology, Prevention, and Treatment of Food Allergy
This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area!

Molekulare Allergiediagnostik
Das Buch bündelt aktuelle Fakten zur molekularen Allergologie und zeigt ihre Vorteile für die moderne Allergiediagnostik. Zunächst werden die wichtigsten Proteinfamilien mit Allergenen ähnlicher Struktur vorgestellt. Einzelallergene verbessern vor allem die Treffsicherheit von IgE-Bestimmungen, deren Testvarianten ausführlich erläutert werden. Anhand häufiger Allergenquellen — Inhalations-, Nahrungsmittel- und Insektengiftallergene — werden dann Nutzen und Grenzen einer molekularen Allergiediagnostik im klinischen Alltag aufgezeigt. Der letzte Abschnitt stellt potenzielle Anwendungen der molekularen Allergologie vor, z. B. die Entwicklung rekombinanter Allergenvakzine oder hypoallergener Nahrungsmittel. Das Buch erweitert die erfolgreiche Beitragsserie „Im Fokus: Molekulare Allergologie“ aus dem Allergo Journal von Springer Medizin und beschreibt die junge Disziplin der molekularen Allergologie als ein sich rasch entwickelndes Fachgebiet. Dabei liefert es wertvolle Hinweise für dieUmsetzung im klinischen Alltag und hilft, die Diagnostik, Beratung und Versorgung allergischer Patienten zu verbessern.
