The genetically modified (GM) maize event MON 810 has been inserted with a processed
version of the transgene, cry1Ab, derived from the soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) …

Genetically modified (GM) crops may bring new proteins with immunogenic and allergenic
properties into the food and feed chains. The most commonly grown GM maize, MON810 …

We aimed to investigate the adjuvanticity of Cry1Ab on allergic sensitisation and elicitation
to peanut in mice, in comparison with cholera toxin (CT), a known mucosal Th2 adjuvant …

Background In genetically modified (GM) crops there is a risk that the inserted genes may
introduce new allergens and/or adjuvants into the food and feed chain. The MON810 maize …

Abstract Cry1Ac toxin, from Bacillus thuringiensis, is widely used as a biopesticide and
expressed in genetically modified (GM) plants used for human and animal consumption …

Cry1F protein, derived from Bacillus thuringiensis, is effective at controlling lepidopteran
pests and a synthetic Cry1F transgene was transferred into maize. For the safety …

With the development of genetically modified crops, there has been a growing interest in
available approaches to assess the potential allergenicity of novel gene products. We were …

The Cry proteins produced by Bacillus thuringiensis are widely used as bioinsecticides to
control crop plagues; they have been considered innocuous for vertebrates. Currently …

Recently we demonstrated that recombinant Cry1Ac protoxin from Bacillus thuringiensis is a
potent systemic and mucosal immunogen. In this study we compared the adjuvant effects of …

Recently we discovered that the Cry1Ac protoxin of Bacillus thuringiensis administered to
Balb/c mice intraperitoneally (ip) or intragastrically is a systemic and intestinal immunogen …
