[Sensitizing capacity, cross-reactivity and antigenic determinants of bisphenol A].
Bis-GMA and epoxy resins are known to cause allergic reactions in some patients. The purpose of this research was to investigate the sensitizing capacity, cross-reactivity and antigenic determinants of bisphenol A (BPA), a major constituent of Bis-GMA and BPA type epoxy resins. Anti-BPA antibodies were prepared from mice injected with BPA-ovalbumin conjugates (BPA-OVA), and the reactions of the...
متن کاملCross-Reactivity between Schistosoma mansoni Antigens and the Latex Allergen Hev b 7: Putative Implication of Cross-Reactive Carbohydrate Determinants (CCDs)
IgG antibodies produced by rabbits immunized against S. mansoni antigens cross-reacted with aqueous soluble constituents of a variety of allergens. The antibody cross-reactivity was largely sensitive to degradation by treatment of the target antigens with sodium meta-periodate, suggesting the cross-reactivity was due to carbohydrate determinants that were common to both the schistosome and the ...
متن کاملCross-Reactivity of Peanut Allergens
Peanut seeds are currently widely used as source of human food ingredients in the United States of America and in European countries due to their high quality protein and oil content. This article describes the classification and molecular biology of peanut seed allergens with particular reference to their cross-reactivities. Currently, the IUIS allergen nomenclature subcommittee accepts 12 pea...
متن کاملCoping with cross-reactive carbohydrate determinants in allergy diagnosis
A relevant proportion of allergy diagnosis is accomplished by in vitro determination of specific immunglobulin E (sIgE) to extracts from suspected allergens. Such extracts inevitably contain glycoproteins, which may react with patients' IgE. In the case of plant and insect allergens, the relevant epitope structure is an α-1,3-fucose on the Asn-linked sugar residue of so-called N-glycans. Due to...
متن کاملantigenic cross-reactivity anti-birtoxin antibody against androctonus crassicauda venom
background : antivenom is still widely used in the treatment of envenomation as there are no vaccines or other effective agents available against animal venoms. recently, neurotoxins named birtoxin family have been described from parabuthus transvaalicus and androctonus crassicauda. the aim of the present study was to test the antibirtoxin antibodies for their ability to neutralize the lethal e...
