A large number of allergenic proteins have now their complete cDNA sequences determined
and in some cases also the 3D structures. It turned out that most allergens could be grouped …

Allergic rhinitis (AR) affects more than 20% of the population in the United Kingdom and
western Europe and represents a major cause of morbidity that includes interference with …

BACKGROUND: Cross-reactivity between the major birch pollen allergen, Bet v 1, and the
apple protein, Mal d 1, frequently causes food allergy. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects …

Background We recently reported that 16 weeks of sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) with
recombinant (r) Mal d 1, but not rBet v 1, significantly improved birch pollen–related apple …

Background: The most common pollen-fruit cross-reaction is the birch-apple syndrome.
Allergen immunotherapy (IT) is clearly effective for birch allergy, but its efficacy on apple …

Background Birch pollen–related apple allergy is among the most prevalent food allergies in
adolescent/adult subjects and mainly results from sensitization to the major birch pollen …

Apple allergy is common in patients allergic to birch pollen, and this is defined as 'birch-
apple syndrome'. Allergens responsible for cross-reactivity belong to the pathogenesis …

It is still unclear whether allergen‐specific immunotherapy (AIT) with birch pollen improves
birch pollen‐related food allergy. One reason for this may be the lack of standardized tests to …

In 1911, Leonard Noon published in The Lancet a description of his treatment of patients
suffering from grass pollen–induced hay fever. In keeping with immunologic thinking of the …

Background Pollen-food allergy syndrome (PFAS) is common among patients with allergic
rhinitis. Treatment recommendations for patients with PFAS remain variable. Objective To …
