Ovalbumin interaction with polystyrene and polyethylene terephthalate microplastics alters its structural properties. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 267:131564. [PMID: 38614174 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131564] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2023] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/15/2024]
Abstract
Contaminating microplastics can interact with food proteins in the food matrix and during digestion. This study investigated adsorption of chicken egg protein ovalbumin to polystyrene (PS, 110 and 260 μm) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET, 140 μm) MPs in acidic and neutral conditions and alterations in ovalbumin structure. Ovalbumin adsorption affinity depended on MPs size (smaller > larger), type (PS > PET) and pH (pH 3 > pH 7). In bulk solution, MPs does not change ovalbumin secondary structure significantly, but induces loosening (at pH 3) and tightening (at pH 7) of tertiary structure. Formed soft corona exclusively consists of full length non-native ovalbumin, while in hard corona also shorter ovalbumin fragments were found. At pH 7 soft corona ovalbumin has rearranged but still preserved level of ordered secondary structure, resulting in preserved thermostability and proteolytic stability, but decreased ability to form fibrils upon heating. Secondary structure changes in soft corona resemble changes in native ovalbumin induced by heat treatment (80 °C). Ovalbumin is abundantly present in corona around microplastics also in the presence of other egg white proteins. These results imply that microplastics contaminating food may bind and change structure and functional properties of the main egg white protein.

IN PRACTICE 2024:S2213-2198(24)00417-3. [PMID: 38670261 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2024.04.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2023] [Revised: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Egg allergy is common and caused by sensitization to ovomucoid and/or ovalbumin. Many egg-allergic patients are able to tolerate eggs baked into other foods, such as muffins. Although heating egg extensively reduces allergens, the effect of other food ingredients on allergenicity of eggs, or the "matrix effect," is less well studied. OBJECTIVE We aimed to define how food matrices impact the matrix effect in egg allergenicity. METHODS Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to quantify ovalbumin and ovomucoid in extracts from various baked egg products: plain baked egg without a matrix, and muffins baked using either wheat flour, rice flour, or a wheat flour/banana puree mix. Allergen-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE)-blocking enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were performed using the egg product extracts on egg-allergic patient sera to determine whether the amount of extracted egg protein in each extract correlated with how well the extracts could bind patients' egg IgE. RESULTS Baking eggs in any muffin matrix led to an increase in the amount of extractable ovalbumin and a decrease in the amount of extractable ovomucoid compared with plain baked egg. Compared with wheat muffins, rice muffins had more extractable ovalbumin and wheat/banana muffins had more extractable ovalbumin and ovomucoid. The egg allergens in the extracts were able to block egg-allergic patients' egg IgE. CONCLUSIONS Food matrices affect egg allergen availability. Patients and families should be advised that substitutions in baked egg muffin recipes can affect the amount of egg allergens in foods and potentially affect the risk of food allergic reaction.

[PMID: 38146801 PMCID: PMC10734553 DOI: 10.1002/clt2.12312] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2023] [Revised: 10/02/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 12/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Hen's egg allergy is the second most frequent food allergy found in children. Allergic symptoms can be caused by raw or heated egg, but a majority of egg-allergic children can tolerate hard-boiled or baked egg. Understanding the reasons for the tolerance towards heated egg provides clues about the molecular mechanisms involved in egg allergy, and the differential allergenicity of heated and baked egg might be exploited to prevent or treat egg allergy. In this review, we therefore discuss (i) why some patients are able to tolerate heated egg; by highlighting the structural changes of egg white (EW) proteins upon heating and their impact on immunoreactivity, as well as patient characteristics, and (ii) to what extent heated or baked EW might be useful for primary prevention strategies or oral immunotherapy. We describe that the level of immunoreactivity towards EW helps to discriminate patients tolerant or reactive to heated or baked egg. Furthermore, the use of heated or baked egg seems effective in primary prevention strategies and might limit adverse reactions. Oral immunotherapy is a promising treatment strategy, but it can sometimes cause significant adverse events. The use of heated or baked egg might limit these, but current literature is insufficient to conclude about its efficacy.

Abstract
The search for an animal model to evaluate the allergenic potential of processed food products is still ongoing. Both the sensitization to ovalbumin (OVA) in different structural states and the allergic response triggered after intragastric or food challenges were assessed. BALB/c mice were sensitized intraperitoneally to OVA (50 µg) in different structural states (native OVA, N-OVA; denatured OVA, D-OVA; formaldehyde- and lysine-treated OVA, FK-OVA; denatured OVA-FK, OVA-DFK; peptides from pepsin digestion, Pep-OVA). Anti-OVA-specific IgE responses were evaluated using ELISA. Anaphylactic signs and mMCP-1 serum levels were evaluated after intragastric (2.0 mg/OVA) and food (0.41 mg/OVA) challenges. IgE reactivities to N-OVA and D-OVA were similar among groups (p > 0.05). After the challenges, all OVA-sensitized mice developed mild to severe anaphylactic signs (p < 0.05 vs. control). Mice sensitized to N-OVA and D-OVA had the highest mMCP-1 serum levels after challenges (p < 0.05 vs. control). Allergic responses were similar despite the different OVA doses used for the challenges. The N-OVA-sensitized murine model of egg allergy proposed in the present study holds the potential for evaluating the impact of food matrix composition and processing on the threshold of egg-allergic responses.

Abstract
New types of protein sources will enter our diet in a near future, reinforcing the need for a straightforward in vitro (cell-based) screening model to test and predict the safety of these novel proteins, in particular their potential risk for de novo allergic sensitization. The Adverse Outcome Pathway (AOP) for allergen sensitization describes the current knowledge of key events underlying the complex cellular interactions that proceed allergic food sensitization. Currently, there is no consensus on the in vitro model to study the intestinal translocation of proteins as well as the epithelial activation, which comprise the first molecular initiation events (ME1-3) and the first key event of the AOP, respectively. As members of INFOGEST, we have highlighted several critical features that should be considered for any proposed in vitro model to study epithelial protein transport in the context of allergic sensitization. In addition, we defined which intestinal cell types are indispensable in a consensus model of the first steps of the AOP, and which cell types are optional or desired when there is the possibility to create a more complex cell model. A model of these first key aspects of the AOP can be used to study the gut epithelial translocation behavior of known hypo- and hyperallergens, juxtaposed to the transport behavior of novel proteins as a first screen for risk management of dietary proteins. Indeed, this disquisition forms a basis for the development of a future consensus model of the allergic sensitization cascade, comprising also the other key events (KE2-5).

Abstract
Since the discovery of immunoglobulin E (IgE) as a mediator of allergic diseases in 1967, our knowledge about the immunological mechanisms of IgE-mediated allergies has remarkably increased. In addition to understanding the immune response and clinical symptoms, allergy diagnosis and management depend strongly on the precise identification of the elicitors of the IgE-mediated allergic reaction. In the past four decades, innovations in bioscience and technology have facilitated the identification and production of well-defined, highly pure molecules for component-resolved diagnosis (CRD), allowing a personalized diagnosis and management of the allergic disease for individual patients. The first edition of the "EAACI Molecular Allergology User's Guide" (MAUG) in 2016 rapidly became a key reference for clinicians, scientists, and interested readers with a background in allergology, immunology, biology, and medicine. Nevertheless, the field of molecular allergology is moving fast, and after 6 years, a new EAACI Taskforce was established to provide an updated document. The Molecular Allergology User's Guide 2.0 summarizes state-of-the-art information on allergen molecules, their clinical relevance, and their application in diagnostic algorithms for clinical practice. It is designed for both, clinicians and scientists, guiding health care professionals through the overwhelming list of different allergen molecules available for testing. Further, it provides diagnostic algorithms on the clinical relevance of allergenic molecules and gives an overview of their biology, the basic mechanisms of test formats, and the application of tests to measure allergen exposure.

Abstract
Food allergy is affecting 5-8% of young children and 2-4% of adults and seems to be increasing in prevalence. The cause of the increase in food allergy is largely unknown but proposed to be influenced by both environmental and lifestyle factors. Changes in intestinal barrier functions and increased uptake of dietary proteins have been suggested to have a great impact on food allergy. In this review, we aim to give an overview of the gastrointestinal digestion and intestinal barrier function and provide a more detailed description of intestinal protein uptake, including the various routes of epithelial transport, how it may be affected by both intrinsic and extrinsic factors, and the relation to food allergy. Further, we give an overview of in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo techniques available for evaluation of intestinal protein uptake and gut permeability in general. Proteins are digested by gastric, pancreatic and integral brush border enzymes in order to allow for sufficient nutritional uptake. Absorption and transport of dietary proteins across the epithelial layer is known to be dependent on the physicochemical properties of the proteins and their digestion fragments themselves, such as size, solubility and aggregation status. It is believed, that the greater an amount of intact protein or larger peptide fragments that is transported through the epithelial layer, and thus encountered by the mucosal immune system in the gut, the greater is the risk of inducing an adverse allergic response. Proteins may be absorbed across the epithelial barrier by means of various mechanisms, and studies have shown that a transcellular facilitated transport route unique for food allergic individuals are at play for transport of allergens, and that upon mediator release from mast cells an enhanced allergen transport via the paracellular route occurs. This is in contrast to healthy individuals where transcytosis through the enterocytes is the main route of protein uptake. Thus, knowledge on factors affecting intestinal barrier functions and methods for the determination of their impact on protein uptake may be useful in future allergenicity assessments and for development of future preventive and treatment strategies.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2022; 102:6835-6847. [PMID: 35634708 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.12045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2022] [Revised: 05/27/2022] [Accepted: 05/30/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Approximately 9.9% of young children in China suffer from egg allergies. Ovalbumin (OVA) and ovomucoid (OVM) are both the main allergens with higher allergenicity in egg white. The previous studies mainly focused on the effects of pasteurization on the structure and allergenicity of the isolated protein itself. The effects of the interaction between OVA and OVM on their spatial structure and allergenicity under pasteurization are still unclear. Therefore, in this study, the spectroscopic, immunological, and cytological methods were used to investigate the effects on OVA and OVM by their interactions which were induced by the following pasteurization, heating for 10 min at 60, 65, and 70 °C, respectively. RESULTS Results indicated that OVA and OVM could form macromolecular aggregates by their interaction at 70 °C, and their solubility was decreased while turbidity was increased. The spatial structures of OVA and OVM were both changed by their interaction, when pasteurization temperature was at 70 °C the exposure of their hydrophobic groups and α-helix content were decreased while their β-sheet was increased. The potential allergenicity of OVA and OVM was also changed, which showed that the immunoglobulin G (IgG)-binding ability of OVA and OVM could be increased, and their IgE-binding ability was decreased a bit. The releases of interleukin 4 (IL-4), IL-6, β-HEX, histamine and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) from OVA-OVM-induced KU812 cells were all decreased at 70 °C. CONCLUSION Therefore, according to the results, if the liquid egg products were pasteurized for 10 min, the temperature of 70 °C should be carefully considered. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Caco-2 Cell Response Induced by Peptides Released after Digestion of Heat-Treated Egg White Proteins. Foods 2022; 11:foods11223566. [PMID: 36429158 PMCID: PMC9689089 DOI: 10.3390/foods11223566] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2022] [Revised: 11/02/2022] [Accepted: 11/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
The heat treatment of food proteins induces structural modifications that influence their interaction with human fluids and cells. We aimed to evaluate the Caco-2 cell response induced by peptides produced after digestion of heat-treated egg white proteins. In vitro digestion of ovalbumin (OVA), ovomucoid (OM), and lysozyme (LYS), untreated or previously heated, was performed. The digestibility of proteins and the response of Caco-2 cells exposed to peptides (<10 kDa) generated during digestion were evaluated. Intact OVA and LYS persisted after the digestion of native proteins, whereas OM was completely hydrolysed. A heat treatment at 65 °C for 30 min did not alter the digestibility of OVA, whereas at 90 °C for 3 min, protein degradation was favoured. The digestibility of OM and LYS was not affected by heat treatment. Peptides derived from OVA and OM digestion induced IL-6 and IL-8 production. OVA and LYS digestion promoted the expression of Tslp, and Il6 and Il33, respectively. A heat treatment prior to OVA digestion reduced IL-6 production and Tslp expression. It was concluded that heat treatments can reduce the release of OVA-derived peptides, but not OM and LYS, with proinflammatory activity during digestion.

Abstract
Allergic sensitization starts with epithelial cell activation driving dendritic cells (DCs) to instruct T helper 2 (Th2) cell polarization. Food allergens trigger intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) activation. Human milk oligosaccharides may temper the allergic phenotype by shaping mucosal immune responses.We investigated in vitro mucosal immune development after allergen exposure by combining ovalbumin (OVA)-preexposed IEC with monocyte-derived DCs (OVA-IEC-DCs) and subsequent coculture of OVA-IEC-DCs with Th cells. IECs were additionally preincubated with 2'FL or 3FL.OVA activation increased IEC cytokine secretion. OVA-IEC-DCs instructed both IL13 (p < 0.05) and IFNγ (p < 0.05) secretion from Th cells. 2'FL and 3FL permitted OVA-induced epithelial activation, but 2'FL-OVA-IEC-DCs boosted inflammatory and regulatory T-cell development. 3FL-OVA-IEC lowered IL12p70 and IL23 in DCs and suppressed IL13 (p < 0.005) in T cells, while enhancing IL17 (p < 0.001) and IL10 (p < 0.005).These results show that OVA drives Th2- and Th1-type immune responses via activation of IECs in this model. 2'FL and 3FL differentially affect OVA-IEC-driven immune effects. 2'FL boosted overall T-cell OVA-IEC immunity via DC enhancing inflammatory and regulatory responses. 3FL-OVA-IEC-DCs silenced IL13, shifting the balance towards IL17 and IL10.This model demonstrates the contribution of IEC to OVA Th2-type immunity. 2'FL and 3FL modulate the OVA-induced activation in this novel model to study allergic sensitization.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore the effects of an emerging and efficient heating technology, superheated steam (SS), on the allergenicity and molecular structure of ovomucoid (OVM). OVM was treated with 120–200 °C of SS for 2 to 10 min. The allergenicity (IgG/IgE binding abilities and cell degranulation assay) and molecular structure (main functional groups and amino acids modification) changes were investigated. The IgG-binding ability of OVM decreased and the releases of β-hex and TNF-γ were inhibited after SS treatment, indicating that the protein allergenicity was reduced. Significant increases in oxidation degree, free SH content and surface hydrophobicity were observed in SS-treated OVM. The protein dimer and trimer appeared after SS treatment. Meanwhile, obvious changes occurred in the primary structure. Specifically, serine can be readily modified by obtaining functional groups from other modification sites during SS treatment. Moreover, the natural OVM structure which showed resistance to trypsin digestion was disrupted, leading to increased protein digestibility. In conclusion, SS-induced OVM aggregation, functional groups and amino acids modifications as well as protein structure alteration led to reduced allergenicity and increased digestibility.

Enterocytes in Food Hypersensitivity Reactions. Animals (Basel) 2021; 11:ani11092713.

Abstract
Simple Summary Hypersensitivity to food, affecting both animals and humans, is increasing. Until a decade ago, it was thought that enterocytes, the most abundant constituent of the intestinal surface mucosa layer, served only to absorb digested food and prevent foreign and non-digested substances from passing below the intestinal layer. Growing evidence supports the involvement of enterocytes in immunological responses. Here, we present a comprehensive review of the new roles of enterocytes in food hypersensitivity conducted in animal models in order to better understand complicated immune pathological conditions. In addition, resources for further work in this area are suggested, along with a literature overview of the specific roles of enterocytes in maintaining oral tolerance. Lastly, it will be beneficial to investigate the various animal models involved in food hypersensitivity to reach the needed momentum necessary for the complete and profound understanding of the mechanisms of the ever-growing number of food allergies in animal and human populations. Abstract Food hypersensitivity reactions are adverse reactions to harmless dietary substances, whose causes are hidden within derangements of the complex immune machinery of humans and mammals. Until recently, enterocytes were considered as solely absorptive cells providing a physical barrier for unwanted lumen constituents. This review focuses on the enterocytes, which are the hub for innate and adaptive immune reactions. Furthermore, the ambiguous nature of enterocytes is also reflected in the fact that enterocytes can be considered as antigen-presenting cells since they constitutively express major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules. Taken together, it becomes clear that enterocytes have an immense role in maintaining oral tolerance to foreign antigens. In general, the immune system and its mechanisms underlying food hypersensitivity are still unknown and the involvement of components belonging to other anatomical systems, such as enterocytes, in these mechanisms make their elucidation even more difficult. The findings from studies with animal models provide us with valuable information about allergic mechanisms in the animal world, while on the other hand, these models are used to extrapolate results to the pathological conditions occurring in humans. There is a constant need for studies that deal with this topic and can overcome the glitches related to ethics in working with animals.

Abstract
Egg and egg products are a rich source of highly bioavailable animal proteins. Several processing technologies can affect the structural and functional properties of these proteins differently and can influence their fate inside the gastrointestinal tract. The present review examines some of the processing technologies for improving egg protein digestibility and discusses how different processing conditions affect the digestibility of egg proteins under gastrointestinal digestion environments. To provide up-to-date information, most of the studies included in this review have been published in the last 5 years on different aspects of egg protein digestibility. Digestibility of egg proteins can be improved by employing some processing technologies that are able to improve the susceptibility of egg proteins to gastrointestinal proteases. Processing technologies, such as pulsed electric field, high-pressure, and ultrasound, can induce conformational and microstructural changes that lead to unfolding of the polypeptides and expose active sites for further interactions. These changes can enhance the accessibility of digestive proteases to cleavage sites. Some of these technologies may inactivate some egg proteins that are enzyme inhibitors, such as trypsin inhibitors. The underlying mechanisms of how different technologies mediate the egg protein digestibility have been discussed in detail. The proteolysis patterns and digestibility of the processed egg proteins are not always predictable and depends on the processing conditions. Empirical input is required to tailor the optimization of processing conditions for favorable effects on protein digestibility.

Abstract
Few patients with food allergy are "highly allergic," meaning they always have severe reactions and always react to very small amounts of allergen. Standard medical approaches for allergy management have focused on the safety and lifestyle modifications this group truly needs, but consequently families with food allergy are typically advised to strictly avoid any exposure to their implicated allergens. Most food-allergic subjects are actually not reactive to very low doses, and many never experience severe reactions. There are also notable conditions where a different care plan is already commonly offered: patients with pollen-related food allergy syndrome, with food-associated exercise-induced anaphylaxis, and with resolving or mild milk or egg allergy might be advised to ingest the allergens in specific circumstances with detailed instructions. Because oral immunotherapy and allergy prevention by early exposure have emphasized alternatives to strict avoidance, there is increasing interest in prospects to forego strict avoidance in those with food allergy. For patients with a high threshold of reactivity (low-dose tolerant, high-dose mildly reactive), there may be options such as allowing the ingestion of products with precautionary allergen labels, allowing dietary indiscretions with small amounts of the allergen, or even encouraging ingestion of subthreshold amounts with therapeutic intent. These practices have not been extensively studied and could be considered controversial. If these approaches are considered, shared decision making is needed in discussing them with patients and families. This review considers the potential approaches to those who are "not highly allergic": the risks, benefits, shared decision making, and research needs.

[PMID: 33049390 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2020.09.059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2020] [Revised: 09/21/2020] [Accepted: 09/26/2020] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although many egg- and milk-allergic children tolerate baked egg (BE) and baked milk (BM), reactions elicited by these oral food challenges (OFCs) can be severe. Previous studies comparing BE and BM reactions to other OFC reactions are limited. OBJECTIVE To compare the clinical features of reactions to BE and BM with other OFCs to promote challenge safety. METHODS A retrospective review of OFCs eliciting objective reactions to BE, BM, lightly cooked egg (CE), fresh cow's milk (CM), peanut (PN), and tree nuts (TN) which were performed at a tertiary referral center from June 1, 2017, to June 1, 2019. RESULTS We identified 174 OFCs conducted in 158 subjects, age 6 to 187 months (34 BE, 19 BM, 14 CE, 25 CM, 52 PN, and 30 TN). TN reactors were older than BE (P = .049) and PN (P < .01) reactors and had a higher frequency of persistent asthma than PN-reactive subjects (P = .02). Mucocutaneous symptoms occurred less frequently during BE (56%) and BM (42%) OFCs compared with other OFCs (P < .05). Lower respiratory tract reactions were increased during BM (37%) versus BE (12%), CM (8%), and PN (12%) OFCs (P < .05). Epinephrine was administered to more BE (44%) and TN (50%) than PN (17%) OFCs (P < .01). New reaction manifestations developed 60 minutes or later after OFC termination during 29% BE and 21% BM versus 0% PN OFCs (P < .05). One-third of anaphylactic reactions to BE began more than 60 minutes after OFC termination. CONCLUSIONS BE and BM challenge reactions differed phenotypically from other OFC reactions, including significantly increased frequencies of new symptoms beginning 60 minutes or later after challenge termination. Consider amended dose-escalation and prolonged observation after BE and BM OFCs.

Allergy 2020; 75:2633-2643. [PMID: 32391917 DOI: 10.1111/all.14357] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2020] [Revised: 03/24/2020] [Accepted: 04/08/2020] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Egg-white ovomucoid, that is, Gal d 1, is associated with IgE-mediated allergic reactions in most egg-allergic children. Epitope-specific IgE levels have been correlated with the severity of egg allergy, while emerging evidence suggests that other antibody isotypes (IgG1 , IgG4 , IgA, and IgD) may have a protective function; yet, their epitope-specific repertoires and associations with atopic comorbidities have not been studied. METHODS Bead-based epitope assay (BBEA) was used to quantitate the levels of epitope-specific (es)IgA, esIgE, esIgD, esIgG1 , and esIgG4 antibodies directed at 58 (15-mer) overlapping peptides, covering the entire sequence of ovomucoid, in plasma of 38 egg-allergic and 6 atopic children. Intraclass correlation (ICC) and coefficient of variation (CV) were used for the reliability assessment. The relationships across esIgs were evaluated using network analysis; linear and logistic regressions were used to compare groups based on egg allergy status and comorbidities. RESULTS BBEA had high reliability (ICC >0.75) and low variability (CV <20%) and could detect known IgE-binding epitopes. Egg-allergic children had lower esIgA1 (P = .010) and esIgG1 (P = .016) and higher esIgE (P < .001) and esIgD (P = .015) levels compared to the atopic controls. Interestingly, within the allergic group, children with higher esIgD had decreased odds of anaphylactic reactions (OR =0.48, P = .038). Network analysis identified most associations between esIgE with either esIgG4 or esIgD; indicating that IgE-secreting plasma cells could originate from either sequential isotype switch from antigen-experienced intermediate isotypes or directly from the IgD+ B cells. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, these data point toward a contribution of epitope-specific antibody repertoires to the pathogenesis of egg allergy.

Abstract
Allergen immunotherapy (AIT) is a very useful therapy for allergic rhinitis. However, some patients do not achieve the expected results. The aim of the study was to investigate the potential factors that could affect the result, either good or poor, from AIT.Methods: A retrospective analysis of 1624 patients with allergic rhinitis who underwent AIT and 1519 matched patients who underwent only symptomatic therapy (without AIT) was performed. Symptoms, medications scores and quality of life related to allergic diseases before and after therapy were recorded. Cluster analysis on all of the patients was performed to find any associations between responsiveness to therapy and the analyzed parameters. Responsiveness to therapy was assessed by the Mailing criteria.Results: A total of 1266 (77.8%) patients from the AIT group met the criterion of 30% or greater improvement, and 1061 (65.2%) of these patients met the threshold of 60% or greater improvement according to the Mailing criteria. Patients who had a frequently better response to AIT were highly represented in the two clusters. There were subjects with a short history of allergic rhinitis and concomitant allergy to grass pollen or house dust mites. Patients with a prolonged duration of allergic rhinitis before therapy and with polysensitization were more frequently worse responders to AIT.Conclusion: Responsiveness to therapy, including that to AIT, is difficult to assess. However, there were associations suggesting that short-term allergic rhinitis and monovalent allergies to grass pollen or mites could correspond to a better response to AIT.

Abstract
Baked milk (BM) and baked egg (BE) diets are increasingly used in the management of milk and egg allergy, rather than avoidance. Children with tolerance versus reactivity to BM and BE may have smaller skin prick test and lower specific IgE, and BM-tolerant children have less basophil reactivity and more peripheral T regulatory cells. However, most milk- and egg-allergic children tolerate BM and BE and an individual's reactivity is unpredictable. Non-reactivity is due to conformational changes in the allergens. Significant differences in the published advice about methods of introduction exist from graded introduction at home to a medically supervised full dose. These approaches carry different risks and may have different immunological effects. Reactivity to BM is a predictor of a severe milk allergy. Therefore, medical supervision for BM and BE introduction is prudent. The baked diet allows dietary liberation. Most, but not all, BM- and BE-tolerant children continue eating the baked foods. The prognosis of children who can eat BM and BE is favorable with likely resolution of their allergy over the next few years. Murine models of BE diets demonstrate that heated egg can impart clinical protection against anaphylaxis and cause immune changes. Most observational human studies of BM and BE diets demonstrate clinical resolution of allergy and favorable immune changes versus regular care controls. However, the one randomized controlled trial for the BE diet in BE-tolerant children did not support an immune-modifying effect of the BE diet. Another study of BE immunotherapy is expected to be completed in 2018. There is currently no evidence for prevention of allergy with the baked diets. There may be a future role for BM and BE in liberating the diets of individuals with non-IgE-mediated allergy given recent studies that a subset of these patients can consume BM without a clinical reaction.

Abstract
Atopic diseases have an increasing trend worldwide during the last two decades. Determining the main cause of allergic diseases, allergens, is the first step in managing and improving the issue, usually is done by Skin Prick tests (SPTs). Having allergenic extract in high quality is desired to perform a reliable SPT. Several parameters of extracts are considered including composition, stability, potency, preservation conditions, and unit definition. In this review, these factors have been explained pointing to factors might have profitable points or harmful drawback in the quality of allergen extracts.

Abstract
Oral immunotherapy (OIT) has been shown to be effective for inducing desensitization in children with cow’s milk and egg allergy. In contrast, there is limited evidence that OIT can induce tolerance or sustained unresponsiveness in food allergic patients. Sustained unresponsiveness, determined by a food challenge following a period of secondary avoidance, has been suggested to reflect a more enduring state of tolerance and is pertinent when considering the ability of OIT to shorten the duration of food allergy. While it has been shown that children who tolerate baked forms of egg and milk are more likely to develop tolerance compared to those who are allergic to baked forms of these foods, there is no convincing evidence that OIT using modified allergen in baked foods can hasten resolution of cow’s milk and egg allergy. Instead, it is likely that baked milk and baked egg tolerant children represent a sub-phenotype of milk and egg allergy that is more likely to resolve spontaneously over time.

Abstract
This work aimed to assess the contribution of the major egg white proteins, ovalbumin, ovomucoid, and lysozyme, to the induction and elicitation of allergenic responses. For this purpose, BALB/c mice were orally administered either the individual egg allergens or a mixture of the three proteins in the same proportion, to evaluate their relative allergenicity avoiding their different abundance in egg white. Cholera toxin was used as a T helper 2 (Th2)-polarizing adjuvant. Ovomucoid and lysozyme triggered the most severe anaphylaxis reactions upon oral challenge. In comparison to ovalbumin and ovomucoid, lysozyme was a more active promotor of early immunoglobulin E and immunoglobulin G1 production and stimulated stronger Th2-biased responses from both mesenteric lymph node and spleen cells. These results indicate that lysozyme is highly immunogenic and should be considered as a major allergen, whose clinical usefulness in the diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic approaches of egg allergy deserves further consideration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Egg allergy is phenotypically heterogeneous. A subset of patients with egg allergy can tolerate egg in an extensively heated form. Inclusion of baked egg (BE) into the diet accelerates resolution of egg allergy. Conversely, BE reactivity is associated with persistent disease. The immune basis of this clinical heterogeneity is unknown. OBJECTIVES We sought to study egg-specific antibody, basophil, and T-cell responses in children with reactivity or tolerance to BE. METHODS All participants underwent double-blind, placebo-controlled challenges to BE, and those who tolerated BE were challenged with unheated egg white protein to confirm clinical egg reactivity. Laboratory studies included serum antibody measurements, basophil activation tests, and CD154-based detection of egg-responsive T cells by using flow cytometry. RESULTS Of the 129 children studied, BE-reactive participants had significantly greater levels of egg-, ovalbumin-, and ovomucoid-specific IgE; lower ratios of egg-specific IgG4/IgE; and increased basophil activation in response to egg. Among all participants, CD154-based profiling revealed egg-responsive T cells producing IL-4 and IL-13 but little IL-10 or IFN-γ, as well as the presence of egg-responsive Foxp3+CD25+CD127low regulatory T cells. Egg-responsive T cells expressed CCR4, CCR6, and CXCR5, indicating capacity for homing to the skin, mucosa, and B-cell follicles. However, neither the frequency nor phenotype of egg-responsive T cells was different in those with tolerance or reactivity to BE. CONCLUSIONS Egg-specific antibody and basophil responses, but not T-cell responses, are greater in those with reactivity versus tolerance to BE. Egg-specific antibody and T-cell responses were highly heterogeneous in this cohort. The clinical implications of this immune heterogeneity will need to be studied longitudinally.

Abstract
Food can trigger a diverse array of symptoms in food allergic individuals from isolated local symptoms affecting skin or gut to multi-system severe reactions (systemic anaphylaxis). Although we know that gastrointestinal and systemic manifestations of food allergy are mediated by tissue mast cells (MCs), it is not clear why allergen exposure by the oral route can result in such distinct clinical manifestations. Our aim was to assess the contribution of mast cell subsets to different manifestations of food allergy. We used two common models of IgE-mediated food allergy, one resulting in systemic anaphylaxis and the other resulting in acute gastrointestinal symptoms, to study the immune basis of allergic reactions. We used responders and non-responders in each model system, as well as naïve controls to identify the association of mast cell activation with clinical reactivity rather than sensitization. Systemic anaphylaxis was uniquely associated with activation of connective tissue mast cells (identified by release of mouse mast cell protease (MMCP) -7 into the serum) and release of histamine, while activation of mucosal mast cells (identified by release of MMCP-1 in the serum) did not correlate with symptoms. Gastrointestinal manifestations of food allergy were associated with an increase of MMCP-1-expressing mast cells in the intestine, and evidence of both mucosal and connective tissue mast cell activation. The data presented in this paper demonstrates that mast cell heterogeneity is an important contributor to manifestations of food allergy, and identifies the connective tissue mast cell subset as key in the development of severe systemic anaphylaxis.

Abstract
Egg proteins have various functional and biological activities which make them potential precursor proteins for bioactive peptide production. Simulated in vitro gastrointestinal digestion and enzymatic hydrolysis using non-gastrointestinal proteases have been used as tools to produce these peptides. Bioactive peptides derived from egg proteins are reported to display various biological activities, including angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory (antihypertensive), antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic and iron-/calcium-binding activities. More importantly, simulated in vitro gastrointestinal digestion has indicated that consumption of egg proteins has physiological benefits due to the release of such multifunctional peptides. This review encompasses studies reported to date on the bioactive peptide production from egg proteins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Consumption of baked egg by raw egg allergic children is associated with immune changes suggesting development of tolerance. However, causation has not been tested using a double blind randomized controlled trial (RCT). We aimed to compare clinical and immunological outcomes after baked egg (BE) consumption in young BE tolerant egg allergic children. METHODS In a double blind RCT, BE tolerant egg allergic children consumed 10 g BE (1.3 g protein) 2 to 3 times per week for 6 months (n = 21 intervention group) or similar egg free baked goods (n = 22 control group) while maintaining an otherwise egg free diet. The final assessment was a raw egg oral food challenge (OFC) 1 month after ceasing the intervention product. Egg specific IgE and IgG4 were assessed at baseline and 7 months. RESULTS After the intervention there was no difference in raw egg tolerance between groups, (23.5% (4/17) intervention group and 33.3% (6/18) control group). This was independent of age and amount of BE consumed (aOR 0.50 CI 0.11-2.40 p = 0.39). Both groups demonstrated decreased egg specific serum IgE titres and decreased whole egg specific IgE/IgG4 ratios. DISCUSSION We conducted this trial because inclusion of baked egg protein in the diet of egg allergic children appears to move children towards a more tolerant immune profile. Strengths of our study include design of the blinded intervention, the consistent dosing protocol and the regular monitoring of symptoms and intake. However, the study was limited by small sample size resulting in insufficient power to show statistically significant results. CONCLUSION Our study suggests that short term, regular consumption of BE by BE tolerant 1 to 5 year old children with IgE mediated raw egg allergy may not induce, accelerate or slow development of tolerance to raw egg in this selected population. Trials with larger sample sizes are required to further test this hypothesis. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trial was registered on 7th February 2012 with the Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN 12612000173897).

Abstract
This study assesses to what extent technological processes that lead to different degrees of denaturation of egg white proteins affect their allergenicity. We focused on heat (80 °C, 10 min) and high-pressure (400 MPa and 37 °C, 10 min) treatments and used a BALB/c mouse model of food allergy. Oral sensitization to egg white using cholera toxin as adjuvant induced the production of IgE and IgG1 isotypes and led to severe clinical signs following challenge with the allergen. Extensive protein denaturation caused by heat treatment increased its ability to induce Th1 responses and reduced both its sensitizing and eliciting capacity. Heated egg white stimulated the production of IgE over IgG1 antibodies directed, at least in part, toward new epitopes exposed as a result of heat treatment. Conversely, partial denaturation caused by high-pressure treatment increased the ability of egg white to stimulate Th2 responses and its allergenic potential.

Abstract
Heated foods are recommended for avoiding sensitization to food proteins, but depending on the physicochemical conditions during heating, more or less unfolded proteins aggregate differently. Whether the aggregation process could modulate allergenicity was investigated. Heating ovalbumin in opposite electrostatic conditions led to small (A-s, about 50 nm) and large (A-L, about 65 μm) aggregates that were used to sensitize mice. The symptoms upon oral challenge and rat basophil leukemia degranulation with native ovalbumin differed on the basis of which aggregates were used during the sensitization. Immunoglobulin-E (IgE) production was significantly lower with A-s than with A-L. Although two common linear IgE-epitopes were found, the aggregates bound and cross-linked IgE similarly or differently, depending on the sensitizing aggregate. The ovalbumin aggregates thus displayed a lower allergenic potential when formed under repulsive rather than nonrepulsive electrostatic conditions. This further demonstrates that food structure modulates the immune response during the sensitization phase with some effects on the elicitation phase of an allergic reaction and argues for the need to characterize the aggregation state of allergens.

Abstract
The effect of pH (4, 5, 7, and 9) combined with either heat (60, 80°C for 10min) or pulsed electric fields (PEF) (1.4-1.8kV/cm, 260-690kJ/kg) treatments on the in vitro peptic digestion of ovomucin-depleted egg white was investigated. Protein digestibility, unaffected by 60°C heating, was increased by heating at 80°C, which caused protein aggregation and solution turbidity. Compared to ovalbumin and lysozyme, ovotransferrin was more susceptible to pepsinolysis. Susceptibility to pepsinolysis of ovalbumin and lysozyme was markedly enhanced by heating at 80°C, compared to either 60°C heating or PEF processing. MALDI-MS identified proteolytic fragments from ovalbumin and lysozyme, exhibiting varied resistance to pepsinolysis. PEF processing at ∼690kJ/kg and pH 4 increased protein digestibility to a similar level to that obtained after heating at 80°C, with negligible solution turbidity, showing potential for the production of digestible protein drinks with good consumer visual appeal owing to their clarity.

Abstract
The enzymatic cross-linking of proteins to form high-molecular-weight compounds may alter their sensitization potential. The IgG-/IgE-binding activity, digestibility, allergenicity, and oral tolerance of cross-linked tropomyosin with tyrosinase (CTC) or horseradish peroxidase (CHP) were investigated. ELISA results demonstrated CTC or CHP reduced its IgE-binding activity by 34.5 ± 1.8 and 63.5 ± 0.6%, respectively. Compared with native tropomyosin or CTC, CHP was more easily digested into small fragments; CHP decreased the degranulation of RBL-2H3 cells and increased endocytosis by dendritic cells. CHP can induce oral tolerance and reduce allergenicity in mice by decreasing IgE and IgG1 levels in serum, the production of T-cell cytokines, and the percentage composition of dendritic cells. These findings demonstrate CHP has more potential of reducing the allergenicity than CTC via influencing the morphology of protein, changing the original method of antigen presentation, modulating the Th1/Th2 immunobalance, and inducing the oral tolerance of the allergen tropomyosin.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since its introduction in clinical practice one century ago for the treatment of respiratory allergic diseases, allergen-specific immunotherapy (AIT) has exhibited a relevant clinical efficacy that was subsequently confirmed in controlled trials. Thus, AIT has been accepted worldwide, as testified by guidelines and international documents. AIT is considered pivotal in the management of allergic rhinitis with or without conjunctivitis and with or without asthma. These conditions, in addition to hymenoptera venom allergy, currently are the accepted indications. The use of AIT in house-dust mite allergy still remains debated, especially due to the methodological problems in assessing this form of respiratory allergy. The more recent experimental data on MK-8237 sublingual tablets provided evidence that AIT, in the sublingual form, is effective in dust mite allergy. AREAS COVERED At present, the evidence of the efficacy of AIT in conditions other than respiratory allergy are not conclusive, but encouraging results have been obtained in food allergy and atopic dermatitis. Herein, the authors discuss the data for these indications. EXPERT OPINION Not all patients respond to AIT in the same way. Accordingly, AIT represents a promising path to precision medicine and hopefully will be able to reduce this burden of non-responding patients.

Abstract
Baked milk and egg have the potential to act as a form of oral immunotherapy (OIT). Clinical studies have shown that a majority of milk- and egg-allergic children can tolerate these allergens modified in baked form, and immunologic changes reported in subjects ingesting baked milk and egg mirror those seen in food allergy OIT trials. In addition, several studies have indicated that resolution of milk and egg allergies occur sooner in populations regularly ingesting baked milk and egg. Oral food challenges remain the best method for determining tolerability of baked milk and egg since baseline characteristics and diagnostic testing have not been reliable predictors. In this review, we explore the tolerability of baked milk and egg and their potential as OIT treatment for milk and egg allergy.

Abstract
Food allergy is receiving increased attention in recent years. Because there is currently no known cure for food allergy, avoiding the offending food is the best defense for sensitive individuals. Type I food allergy is mediated by food proteins, and thus, theoretically, any food protein is a potential allergen. Variability of an individual's immune system further complicates attempts to understand allergen-antibody interaction. In this article, we briefly review food allergy occurrence, prevalence, mechanisms, and detection. Efforts aimed at reducing/eliminating allergens through food processing are discussed. Future research needs are addressed.

Abstract
Food allergy is a major public health problem in children, impacting upon the affected individual, their families and others charged with their care, for example educational establishments, and the food industry. In contrast to most other paediatric diseases, there is no established cure: current management is based upon dietary avoidance and the provision of rescue medication in the event of accidental reactions, which are common. This strategy has significant limitations and impacts adversely on health-related quality of life. In the last decade, research into disease-modifying treatments for food allergy has emerged, predominantly for peanut, egg and cow's milk. Most studies have used the oral route (oral immunotherapy, OIT), in which increasing amounts of allergen are given over weeks-months. OIT has proven effective to induce immune modulation and 'desensitization' - that is, an increase in the amount of food allergen that can be consumed, so long as regular (typically daily) doses are continued. However, its ability to induce permanent tolerance once ongoing exposure has stopped seems limited. Additionally, the short- and long-term safety of OIT is often poorly reported, raising concerns about its implementation in routine practice. Most patients experience allergic reactions and, although generally mild, severe reactions have occurred. Long-term adherence is unclear, which rises concerns given the low rates of long-term tolerance induction. Current research focuses on improving current limitations, especially safety. Strategies include alternative routes (sublingual, epicutaneous), modified hypoallergenic products and adjuvants (anti-IgE, pre-/probiotics). Biomarkers of safe/successful OIT are also under investigation.

Abstract
Purpose Two mouse strains, BALB/c and C3H/HeOuJ, broadly used in the field of food allergy, were compared for the evaluation of the allergenic potential of ovalbumin (OVA). Methods Sensitization was made by administering 2 different OVA doses (1 and 5 mg), with cholera toxin as Th2-polarizing adjuvant. Antibody levels, severity of anaphylaxis, and Th1 and Th2 responses induced by the allergen were assessed. In addition, because the mice selected had functional toll-like receptor 4, the influence of contamination with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on the immunostimulating capacity of OVA on spleen cells was also evaluated. Results Both strains exhibited similar susceptibility to OVA sensitization. The 2 protein doses generated similar OVA-specific IgE and IgG1 levels in both strains, whereas C3H/HeOuJ mice produced significantly more IgG2a. Oral challenge provoked more severe manifestations in C3H/HeOuJ mice as indicated by the drop in body temperature and the severity of the anaphylactic scores. Stimulation of splenocytes with OVA led to significantly higher levels of Th2 and Th1 cytokines in BALB/c, and these were less affected by protein contamination with LPS. Conclusions The antibody and cytokine levels induced by OVA in BALB/c mice and the observation that BALB/c spleen cell cultures were more resistant than those of C3H/HeOuJ mice to the stimulus of LPS make this strain prone to exhibit Th2-mediated food allergic reactions and very adequate for the study of the features of OVA that make it allergenic.

Abstract
Hen eggs are an important and inexpensive source of high-quality proteins in the human diet. Egg, either as a whole or its constituents (egg yolk and white), is a key ingredient in many food products by virtue of its nutritional value and unique functional properties, such as emulsifying, foaming, and gelling. Nevertheless, egg is also known because of its allergenic potential and, in fact, it is the second most frequent source of allergic reactions, particularly in children. This review deals with the structural or functional properties of egg proteins that make them strong allergens. Their ability to sensitize and/or elicit allergic reactions is linked to their resistance to gastroduodenal digestion, which ultimately allows them to interact with the intestinal mucosa where absorption occurs. The factors that affect protein digestibility, whether increasing it, decreasing it, or inducing a different proteolysis pattern, and their influence on their capacity to induce or trigger an allergic reaction are discussed. Special attention is paid to the effect of the food matrix and the processing practices on the capacity of egg proteins to modulate the immune response.

Abstract
Most egg-allergic children can tolerate extensively cooked eggs. Ovalbumin, a major allergen in egg whites, is prone to aggregate upon heating. This study compares ovalbumin's allergenicity when it is aggregated as large particles to ovalbumin in its native form. Immunoglobulins (Ig)-binding and the degranulation capacities of native and aggregated ovalbumin were measured with sera from egg-allergic children and from mice sensitized to native or aggregated ovalbumin. The influence of ovalbumin structure on Ig production upon sensitization and elicitation potency by challenge was also studied. We showed that heat aggregation of ovalbumin as large particles enhances IgG production and promotes IgG2a production (a shift toward the T helper 1 profile). Aggregated ovalbumin displayed lower Ig-binding and basophil-activation capacities for sera from both allergic patients and mice. This work illustrates the links between ovalbumin structure after heating and allergenicity potential using parameters from both the sensitization and elicitation phases of the allergic reaction.

THE JOURNAL OF ALLERGY AND CLINICAL IMMUNOLOGY-IN PRACTICE 2016; 3:13-23; quiz 24. [PMID: 25577613 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2014.10.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 107] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2014] [Revised: 09/24/2014] [Accepted: 10/02/2014] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
Cow's milk (CM) and hen's egg allergies are among the most common food allergies in children. With evidence of increasing food allergy prevalence and more persistent disease, it has become vital to improve the management of CM and egg allergies. The ability to tolerate baked milk or egg, such as in a cake or muffin, has been associated with an increased chance of tolerance development. Studies report that about 70% of CM- and egg-allergic children can tolerate baked milk or egg and that incorporating baked milk or egg into the diet is well tolerated. Being able to add baked milk or egg into the diet can also increase quality of life by expanding the diet, boosting nutrition, and promoting inclusion in social activities. There is some debate over how baked milk and egg should be introduced, at home or in a supervised setting. Anaphylaxis and treatment with epinephrine during baked milk or egg challenges have been reported. Study of potential biomarkers to predict tolerability of baked milk and egg, such as serum specific IgE levels and skin prick test wheal diameters, is ongoing. Many parents can reliably report that their CM- or egg-allergic child is already consuming baked goods without symptoms. However, for those who cannot report such tolerance, the most prudent approach is to perform a supervised oral food challenge to determine the tolerability of baked milk and egg. The purpose of this article was to review the pathophysiology, clinical data, and safety of baked milk and egg and provide a practical guide to managing CM allergy and/or egg allergy. Recipes for baked milk and egg challenges and guidance on how to add baked milk and egg if tolerated to the child's regular diet are provided.
