Are physicochemical properties shaping the allergenic potency of plant allergens?
Costa, Joana; Bavaro, Simona Lucia; Benede, Sara; Diaz-Perales, Araceli; Bueno-Diaz, Cristina; Gelencser, Eva; Klueber, Julia; Larre, ColetteThis review searched for published evidence that could explain how different physicochemical properties impact on the allergenicity of food proteins and if their effects would follow specific patterns among distinct protein families. Owing to the amount and complexity of the collected information, this literature overview was divided in two articles, the current one dedicated to protein families of plant allerg...
Management of anaphylaxis due to COVID-19 vaccines in the elderly
Bousquet, Jean; Agache, Ioana; Blain, Hubert; Jutel, Marek; Ventura, Maria Teresa; Worm, Margitta; Del Giacco, Stefano; Benetos, AthanasiosOlder adults, especially men and/or those with diabetes, hypertension and/or obesity, are prone to severe COVID-19. In some countries, older adults, particularly those residing in nursing homes, have been prioritised to receive COVID-19 vaccines due to high risk of death. In very rare instances,the COVID-19 vaccines can induce anaphylaxis, and the management of anaphylaxis in older people should be considered c...
ARIA-EAACI care pathways for allergen immunotherapy in respiratory allergy
Bousquet, Jean; Pfaar, Oliver; Agache, Ioana; Bedbrook, Anna; Akdis, Cezmi; Canonica, Giorgio Walter; Chivato, Tomas; Al-Ahmad, Mona; Rasib, A. H. AbdulAllergen immunotherapy (AIT), the gradually increasing repeated administration of high doses of allergens to allergic patients, offers the potential for immune tolerance against reactions to the natural exposures to specific allergens. AIT may lead to the long‐lasting remission of allergic symptoms and is the only disease‐modifying intervention in IgE‐mediated allergic respiratory diseases. [...]

Current (Food) allergenic risk assessment: is it fit for novel foods? status qu...
Mazzucchelli, Gabriel; Holzhauser, Thomas; Cirkovic Velickovic, Tanja; Diaz Perales, Araceli; Molina, Elena; Roncada, P.; Rodrigues, PedroFood allergies are recognized as a global health concern. In order to protect allergic consumers from severe symptoms, allergenic risk assessment for well-known foods and foods containing genetically modified ingredients is installed. However, population is steadily growing and there is a rising need to provide adequate protein-based foods, including novel sources, not yet used for human consumption. In this co...
