Prohevein is one of the major allergens associated with latex allergy. In the present study, we identified IgE binding regions of prohevein, and expressed multiple IgE binding epitopes by selective cloning. These truncated polypeptides were then used

Hypersensitivity to latex proteins present in health care products, particularly in latex gloves, has emerged as an important public health problem in recent years. Most of these latex allergens have not been purified or characterized. Here we report

A model of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis was developed by exposing BALB/c mice to Aspergillus fumigatus (AF) Ag. Animals immunized intranasally (i.n.) with soluble AF Ag produced low levels of serum IgE compared to animals given alum precip

The specifity of gene encoding the ribotoxin protein in Aspergillus fumigatus was determined by PCR amplification of a portion of the gene. All A. fumigatus strains studied showed the presence of amplifiable ribotoxin product, while none of the other

Aspergillus fumigatus (Af) is ubiquitous saprophytic fungus associated with a broad spectrum of diseases in humans. These diseases range from benign colonization of the lung to life threatening diseases such as allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis

Cross-reactive allergens play an increasingly important role in latex allergy in complicating both the diagnosis and time course of allergic symptoms. Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), a ubiquitous protein of prokaryotic and eukaryotic organism

Aspergillus fumigatus, a ubiquitous fungus, is responsible for a number of lung disorders in atopic and non-atopic individuals. Standardized, pure, and relevant allergens are desirable for reliable immunodiagnosis of the disease and to understand the

Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a hypersensitivity lung disease resulting from exposure to Aspergillus fumigatus allergens. Patients with ABPA show elevated Aspergillus-specific serum IgE, a major criterion used in the diagnosis of

Latex allergy is largely an occupational allergy due to sensitization to natural rubber latex allergens present in a number of health care and household products. Although several purified allergens are currently available for study, information on t

Sensitization to latex proteins can cause immediate IgE mast cell-mediated reactions. Health care workers have been found to be particularly at risk because of high exposure. Latex allergy can be produced in mice as demonstrated by IgE and eosinophil
