Acid-formed pectin gel delays major incomplete kiwi fruit allergen Act c 1 proteolysis in in vitro gastrointestinal digestion
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, Chichester, 2009)
BACKGROUND: It is thought that food sensitisers must be able to reach the intestine in order to sensitise patients. Pectin is a gel-forming plant polysaccharide that can protect allergens from in vivo gastric digestion and ...
Different effects of methionine-enkephalin on paw edema in two inbred rat strains
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 2002)
The effect of intraplantarly (i.pl.)-injected methionine-enkephalin (ME) on Concanavalin A (Con A)-induced paw edema in Dark Agouti (DA) and Albino Oxford (AO) rats was investigated. ME suppressed edema in DA rats, which ...
Allergenicity and immunogenicity of the major mugwort pollen allergen Art v 1 chemically modified by acetylation
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2009)
Treating allergies with modified allergens is an approach to make the treatment safer and more efficient. Art v 1 is the most prominent allergen of mugwort pollen and a significant cause of hayfever around Europe. The aim ...
Removal of N-terminal peptides from β-lactoglobulin by proteolytic contaminants in a commercial phenol oxidase preparation
(International Dairy Journal, 2009)
The use of enzymes may improve the functional properties of various food ingredients. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of proteolytic contaminants in phenol oxidases on β-lactoglobulin (BLG). In the presence ...
Phylogenetic Analysis of Human Parvovirus B19 Sequences from Eleven Different Countries Confirms the Predominance of Genotype 1 and Suggests the Spread of Genotype 3b
(Amer Soc Microbiology, Washington, 2009)
Phylogenetic analysis of 166 human parvovirus B19 sequences from 11 different countries attributed 91.57% to genotype 1, 5.42% to genotype 3b, and 3.01% to genotype 3a. Very similar viruses of genotype 1 circulated widely ...
Castration of sexually immature rats affects sympathetic innervation of the adult thymus
(Karger, Basel, 2000)
It has been hypothesized that maturational processes within the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis and thymus are reciprocally regulated via neural pathways. To test this hypothesis, in the thymi of adult rats ...
The neuronal and immune memory systems as supervisors of neural plasticity and aging of the brain - From phenomenology to coding of information
(New York Acad Sciences, New York, 2005)
The ultimate goal of this report is to learn how to manipulate the level of memory T cells for more effective treatment of such neurological diseases as multiple sclerosis (MS), where certain T cell subsets recognize ...
The influence of a residual group in low-molecular-weight allergoids of Artemisia vulgaris pollen on their allergenicity, IgE- and IgG-binding properties
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2002)
Background: Reaction of epsilon-amino groups of lysine with potassium cyanate, maleic, or succinic anhydride leads to allergoids of low molecular weight. No study has been performed to compare their properties and investigate ...
A matrix effect in pectin-rich fruits hampers digestion of allergen by pepsin in vivo and in vitro
(Clinical and Experimental Allergy, 2007)
Background: It is a general belief that a food allergen should be stable to gastric digestion. Various acidic plant polysaccharides, including pectin, are ubiquitous in fruit matrixes and can form hydrogels under low-pH ...
Biochemical characterization of thaumatin-like kiwi allergen
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2002)
