Relationship between specific IgE to egg components and natural history of egg allergy in Danish children

The majority of egg‐allergic children develop tolerance over time. However, it may take numerous of consecutive egg challenges to get there as no good indices to predict tolerance exist.

Clinical Significance of Specific IgE Antibody Levels to Egg White, Ovalbumin and Ovomucoid in Egg Allergic Children Under 24 Months

This data indicates that the total IgE and specific IgE antibody levels in the blood are higher in men than in women, and the IgE/IgE antibody level in women is higher than in men.

Oral immunotherapy with low allergenic hydrolysed egg in egg allergic children

Both safety and efficacy of a low allergenic hydrolysed egg (HydE) preparation used in a double‐blind placebo‐controlled randomized study in egg allergic children are assessed.

Evaluation of baked egg oral immunotherapy in French children with hen's egg allergy

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of baked egg oral immunotherapy (OIT) in children with HE allergy after a low‐dose baked egg Oral food challenge (OFC).

Immunoglobulin‐E‐binding epitopes of wheat allergens in patients with food allergy to wheat and in mice experimentally sensitized to wheat proteins

This work has shown that B cell epitopes involved in food allergy to wheat are known only for a few allergens and a few categories of patients, and the importance of knowing these epitopes for diagnosis and treatment is still under debated.

Is epitope recognition of shrimp allergens useful to predict clinical reactivity?

Diagnosis of shrimp allergy is still inaccurate, requiring the need for double‐blind, placebo‐controlled food challenges (DBPCFC), and a better understanding of the relationship between laboratory findings and clinical reactivity is needed.

Detection and control of eggs as a food allergen

This chapter provides a basic overview of egg allergy, allergens in egg white and yolk, and quantitative and qualitative methods for detecting egg proteins in processed foods.

Clinical Significance of IgE–Binding Activity to Enzymatic Digests of Ovomucoid in the Diagnosis and the Prediction of the Outgrowing of Egg White Hypersensitivity

IgE–binding activity to pepsin–digested ovomucoid was of diagnostic value to distinguish the challenge–positive subjects from the negative subjects and are unlikely to outgrow egg white allergy.

Allergenic properties of ovomucoid in man.

The results indicate a dichotomy between T and B cell domain dominance, and the presence of both unique and common IgE and IgG epitopes, and suggest that conformational B cell epitopes play a more significant role in ovomucoid allergenicity than previously appreciated, and that carbohydrate moieties have a minor effect on allergenic properties.

[Antigenic determinants on ovalbumin and ovomucoid: comparison of the specificity of IgG and IgE antibodies].

It is strongly suggested that antibodies to OA recognize partially conformational antigenic determinants on OA, whereas antibodies toOVM mainly recognize sequential antigenic determination on OVM, and that antigenIC determinants of OVM recognized by antibodies in sera from patients are more stable than those of OA under these denaturation conditions.
