The objectives of the CAJESITO study are (i) to assess the tolerance of oral cashew nut immunotherapy, by describing the frequency and severity of allergic reactions during oral cashew nut immunotherapy and (ii )to assess the risk factors for severe allergic reactions during oral cashew nut immunotherapy (predictive factors, associated factors.
This project aims to study the immune responses to peanut allergen in those with a skin barrier defect with and without skin massage, specifically it aims to: 1. Establish if peanut allergen components can pass into human skin through regular massage using the peanut protein-containing extract. 2. Clarify whether this effect is amplified in those with an impaired skin barrier (AD and dry skin vs healthy controls). 3. Assess whether peanut protein components can be detected in interstitial skin fluid (ISF) using a suction device. 4. Test whether peanut protein components present in ISF are able to induce activation of basophils in blood of peanut allergic donors. 5. Assess whether the transcutaneous uptake of peanut protein can be reduced by the prior use of a barrier enhancing cream.
This study is investigating the hypothesis that alpha-gal is responsible for the gastrointestinal symptoms that occur in some alpha-gal syndrome subjects following the consumption of mammalian meat. This will be tested by comparing symptoms and immune responses in subjects with alpha-gal syndrome following consumption of "wild-type" pork (which contains alpha-gal) versus consumption of a novel pork product which has been genetically modified to lack alpha-gal (GalSafe pork from Revivicor Inc.).
The objectives of this study are to determine in children allergic to peanut (i) the prevalence of sensitization to other legumes, (ii) the prevalence of allergy to each legume in patients who are sensitized to it (iii ) the severity of the allergy to legumes other than peanut
