A case of allergy to zucchini.
A case of isolated zucchini allergy is reported occuring in a 46-year-old man who reported 3 episodes of urticaria with angioedema at both hands and head associated with severe gastric pain; in all cases the episodes occurred few minutes after the ingestion of cooked zucchini. Symptoms lasted about 45 minutes and subsided spontaneously. He tolerated other foods. Skin tests were negative to all allerens tested, including latex, except was strongly positive to fresh zucchini (prick-prick test). Immunoblot was negative, however this patient reacted to zucchini-specific allergens, as shown by the lack of IgE reactivity to potential cross-reacting pan-allergens, including profilin, natural rubber latex, Bet v 1- like, and lipid transfer protein. The offending zucchini allergen(s) were both heat-stable and pepsin-stable, as shown by the fact that all 3 allergic reactions were caused by cooked zucchini and that the offending food induced systemic symptoms in all cases.

Triclosan exposure and allergic sensitization in Norwegian children.
Exposure to the synthetic antimicrobial chemical, triclosan, used in personal care products, has been hypothesized to lead to allergic disease. This study investigated whether triclosan exposure was associated with allergic sensitization and symptoms in 10-year-old Norwegian children. Urinary concentrations of triclosan were measured in one first morning void from 623 children. The adjusted odds ratio (aOR) for allergic sensitization among those in the fourth quartile of triclosan concentration was 2.0 compared with the reference group, and the aOR per log(10) unit increase in triclosan was 1.2. The aOR for current rhinitis was 1.9 for the fourth quartile and 1.2 per log(10) unit increase in triclosan. Therefore triclosan concentrations were associated with allergic sensitization, especially inhalant and seasonal allergens, rather than food allergens.

Anaphylaxis from ingestion of mites: Pancake anaphylaxis.
Oral mite anaphylaxis is a new syndrome characterized by severe allergic symptoms occurring immediately after eating foods made with mite-contaminated wheat flour. This syndrome, which is more prevalent in tropical environments, is triggered more often by pancakes, and for that reason, it has been designated 'the pancake syndrome.' Because cooked foods are able to induce the symptoms, it has been suggested that thermoresistant allergens are involved in its pathogenesis. A variety of this syndrome can occur during physical exercise (dust mite ingestion-associated exercise-induced anaphylaxis)

Variable content of Fel d 1 variants in house dust and cat extracts may have an impact on allergen measurement.
Despite a common pattern of Fel d 1 variants in cat extracts and house dust, variations in the tetramer-to-dimer ratio among samples may introduce major discordances in cat allergen measurements using immunoassays.

Age-dependent sensitization to the 7S-vicilin-like protein Cor a 11 from hazelnut (Corylus avellana) in a birch-endemic region.
This study evaluated sensitization to Cor a 11 in different age groups of hazelnut-allergic patients and infants with atopic dermatitis (AD) sensitized to hazelnut in a birch-endemic region. Sera from 80 hazelnut-allergic patients, 33 infants under 1 year of age with AD, healthy controls, and 29 birch pollenallergic but hazelnut-tolerant individuals were tested for IgE reactivity to Cor a 11. IgE reactivity to Cor a 1.01, Cor a 1.04, Cor a 8, and Cor a 9 was studied by ISAC microarray. Forty patients (22 preschool children, 10 schoolchildren, and 8 adults) with systemic reactions on consumption of hazelnut were sensitized to Cor a 11 (respective rates of 36%, 40%, and 12.5%). Forty patients (6 preschool children, 10 schoolchildren, and 24 adults) reported oral allergy syndrome but only 2 of them (of preschool age) were sensitized to Cor a 11. Two (8%) of the AD infants sensitized to hazelnut showed IgE reactivity to Cor a 11. This reactivity was not observed in any of the AD infants without sensitization to hazelnut, in any of the birch-pollen allergic patients without hazelnut allergy, or in any of the healthy control individuals. Sensitization to Cor a 11 in a birch-endemic region is predominantly found in children with severe hazelnut allergy, a fi nding that is consistent with observations concerning sensitization to Cor a 9.

Aseptic meningitis induced by vitamin B complex.
The authors report the first case of aseptic meningitis (AM) due to a hypersensitivity reaction to vitamin B complex. A 29-year-old woman with a history of autoimmune subclinical hypothyroidism attended the emergency room with generalized seizure, neck stiffness, and lethargy. A lymphocyte transformation test (LTT) was positive with B1.

Custard apple and latex allergy: a new type of cross-reaction?
Custard apple and latex allergy: a new type of cross-reaction? A 28-year-old woman who worked as a fishmonger was examined at our hospital. During the previous year, she had developed pruritus, erythema, and wheals on her fingers, hands, and forearms while working. These symptoms improved on weekends and vacation. She wore latex gloves at work and reported no symptoms when touching or eating fish. During the previous 4 years, she had also experienced tongue and pharyngeal pruritus and labial erythema after eating custard apple. A custard apple IgE-binding band

of 14 kDa was detected. This allergen displayed cross-reactivity with latex, papaya, and avocado, but not with Hev b 1 or profilin. High sequence homology was found between peptides of this 14-kDa band and acyl carrier protein. We suggest that this could be a new allergen involved in cherimoya and latex cross-reaction, although further studies would be necessary to prove its allergenicity.

Correlation between Alt a 1 levels and clinical symptoms in Alternaria alternata-monosensitized patients.
Alt a 1, which has been described as the major allergen in A alternata, shows a good correlation with A alternata spores only when they have germinated. This study correlated spore counts and clinical symptoms in patients with allergic asthma and/or rhinitis monosensitized to A alternata. A alternata spores were detected throughout the year, whereas Alt a 1 was detected only between March and December. Symptoms showed positive and significant correlations with spore counts, and Alt a 1 levels. The correlation between spores and Alt a 1 was low. In patients who are allergic to A alternata, Alt a 1 levels can be considered an important marker for predicting the risk of respiratory symptoms.

Anaphylaxis associated with the ingestion of Goji berries.
Two patients who experienced allergic symptoms after Goji berry consumption, 1 of which was an anaphylactic reaction, after Goji berry ingestion. A positive skin prick test and specific IgE to Goji berry was detected in both cases. Serum samples recognized a 9-kDa band, probably related to lipid transfer proteins (LTPs). Cross-reactivity with tomato was analyzed by inhibition studies, which showed that the 9-kDa band was totally inhibited by the tomato extract. This study describes the first 2 cases of allergic reaction following Goji berry ingestion. LTPs seem to be involved in allergic sensitization to Goji berries, as evidenced by cross-reactivity with tomato.

Cupressus arizonica pollen: a new pollen involved in the lipid transfer protein syndrome?
6 patients with cypress pollinosis and food allergy to peach were evaluated. SPT were positive for C arizonica, peach, lettuce, mustard, and hazelnut in all patients. Specific IgE to C arizonica and Pru p 3 was positive in all but 1 patient, whose Pru p 3 IgE was negative. Immunoblotting under nonreducing conditions with C arizonica extract and patients' sera showed a band at 14-15 kDa that was inhibited by Pru p 3. Pru p 3 partially inhibited the C arizonica pollen extract in EAST-inhibition. Pru p 3-like LTP was localized in the cytoplasm and walls of C arizonica pollen grains. A 15-kDa allergen in C arizonica pollen was found in a group of patients presenting peach allergy and respiratory symptoms to cypress. In vitro tests and immunocytochemical techniques indicate that this protein is an LTP.

Eosinophilic gastroenteritis due to allergy to cow's milk.
Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is an uncommon condition that is characterized by infiltration of the gastrointestinal tract by eosinophils. We report the case of a 24-year-old woman who presented 4 episodes of eosinophilic gastroenteritis. Skin prick tests and patch tests with different allergens were all negative. The patient's eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) level was very high. Given that one of the most common causes of this condition is allergy to cow's milk, ECP levels were determined during a diet with and without cow's milk. ECP levels were considerably elevated during the diet with milk, although they returned to normal values several months after milk was withdrawn. The favorable clinical outcome and normalization of ECP levels point to a very probable association with cow's milk in the eosinophilic gastroenteritis presented by our patient.

Identification of allergens in chicken meat allergy.
Chicken meat is widely consumed. Most cases of chicken meat allergy are associated with hypersensitivity to egg and/ or feather, thus prompting the so-called birdegg syndrome, with a-livetin (Gal d 5) as the most frequent cross-reacting protein. Few cases of chicken meat allergy without egg hypersensitivity have been published, and its profile of allergen sensitization has seldom been investigated, although a-parvalbumin was recently identified as the allergen implicated in a case of poultry meat allergy. A 20-year-old man experienced oropharyngeal and palmar itching, facial hives, lip swelling, dysphagia, dyspnea, and heartburn 15 minutes after eating chicken. He tolerated turkey, but did not eat any other poultry meat or meats such as veal, pork, and rabbit. IgE immunoblotting assays were carried out and revealed reactivity to bands of 16 and 27 kDa in boiled chicken extract, 16 and 28 kDa in boiled duck extract, and 16 kDa in boiled turkey extract and were identified the 16-kDa band as a-parvalbumin and the 27-kDa band as myosin light chain 1 (MLC). Although shrimp MLC (Lit v 3) has been identified as a new major shrimp allergen, MLC has never been described as an allergen in chicken meat.

Allergy to freshwater crayfish, red swamp crayfish.
An 18-year-old woman presented with chest tightness, wheezing, headache, and hives on the abdomen that had appeared within minutes of eating Procambarus clarkii, a crayfish belonging to the Cambaridae family. She said that she had never developed symptoms after eating crustaceans or molluscs on previous occasions. Skin prick tests to common aeroallergens, crustaceans, molluscs, and Anisakis simplex were positive result only to grass and olea pollen. Protein extracts from raw and boiled P clarkii shell (PCSr and PCSb, respectively) and flesh (PCFr and PCFb) were prepared. Prick- by-prick tests with PCFr and PCFb yielded a wheal of 3 mm in both cases. Serum-specific IgE against commercial crab extract was <0.35 kU/L, and sIgE determinations against PCSr, PCSb, PCFr, and PCFb yielded

kU/L for PCSr (total IgE of 90 IU/mL) and were negative for the rest of the extracts. Protein bands ranging between 14 and 99 kDa were isolated for the PCFr and PCSr extracts. SDS-PAGE IgE-immunoblotting assays revealed IgE-reactivity with a 21-kDa protein in both extracts, but with stronger labeling in PCSr. Protein databases identified the sequence as ferritin. In vertebrates, these subunits can be light-type (L) or heavy- type (H) subunits, with a molecular weight of 19 kDa and 21 kDa, respectively

Anaphylaxis due to orange soft drinks.
Anaphylaxis due to orange soft drinks. A 23-year-old woman experienced an episode of anaphylaxis 10 minutes after handling sweet oranges in a fruit warehouse where she had been working for a month. Because of this episode, she left the job and some months later experienced contact urticaria when squeezing an orange; she also experienced oral allergy syndrome after drinking several orange soft drinks that she had previously tolerated. She had not eaten sweet oranges for 15 fifteen years. SPTs with the soft drink extracts were negative but the corresponding intradermal tests were positive. 1 hour after the intradermal test with orange extract (pulp and peel), the patient developed facial edema, dyspnea, and wheezing that required urgent medical attention. Total serum IgE was 6.7 IU/mL and serum specific IgE against orange peel and pulp extracts was <0.35 kU/L (class 0). IgE immunoblotting with the patients serum revealed IgE-binding bands of approximately 75 kDa, 66 kDa, 57 kDa, 28 kDa, 22 kDa, and 18 kDa. The immunoblotting profile of 3 orange soft drink extracts showed a strong band of 28 kDa. The 28-kDa IgE binding protein was identified as Cit s 1. Oral provocation test was refused. The authors conclude that this nonatopic patient showed clinically relevant monosensitization to Cit s 1, a sweet orange allergen, which appeared as an active allergenic component in orange soft drinks.

Allergy to spearmint (Mentha spicata).
A 41-year-old female with rhinoconjunctivitis from house dust mite and cat experienced recurrent episodes of uvular angioedema that appeared a few hours after ingestion of fresh mint leaves (used as a condiment) or inhalation of mint essence during a massage. Notably, no reactions were related to ingestion of other foods, including aromatic herbs from the mint family, or cutaneous reactions in the areas where the mint essence was applied. Prick-by-prick testing and RAST with substrates of other members of the Lamiaceae family (oregano, rosemary, basil, and thyme) were all negative. Prick-by- prick testing was performed with fresh mint leaves were positive. Specific IgE binding showed a single immunoreactive band of approximately 50 kDa.

Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) to corn: a case report.
Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) to corn: a case report. A 7 months old girl ate 4 teaspoons of vegetable, corn, and tapioca, and 2.5 hours later developed repeated episodes of diarrhea and vomiting with pallor, hypotonia, and lethargy. Acute viral gastrointestinal infection was diagnosed. Ten days later, she consumed breast milk followed by 80 g of pear homogenate (with corn starch), and developed profuse vomiting, diarrhea, pallor, and lethargy after 2 hours. Anaphylaxis due to cows milk (CM) protein was suspected. The infant was exclusively breastfed for 10 days, after which she ate 60 g of pear homogenate (still with corn starch). Four hours later, she experienced profuse vomiting, without pallor or lethargy. FPIES to corn, the only food present in all 3 critical episodes, was suspected. Prick to prick tests with corn and other grains not yet eaten by the infant were negative. An OFC to test tolerance to corn was performed 1 year after the last episode, when the infant was 18-months-old, with negative results. At follow-up 2 months later, the child had eaten corn several times and experienced no further episodes of FPIES.

Occupational asthma caused Tyrophagus putrescentiae in a dry-cured ham transporter allergic to shrimp.
A 43-year-old man living in Madrid, (low prevalence of mite sensitization) had worked transporting dry-cured ham in a van for 13 years. A few years after starting, he developed moderate persistent rhinoconjunctivitis, cutaneous pruritus, and dyspnea that worsened on week days and improved at weekends and during holidays. Three years earlier he experienced 2 episodes of oral pruritus and lip angioedema immediately after eating boiled shrimp. Subsequently he developed oral pruritus on trying small amounts of other crustaceans at home. He tolerated cephalopods, molluscs, and dry-cured ham, including the ham he delivered. A prick to prick test with a portion of the dry-cured ham the patient transported was negative for the meat but positive for the crust of the ham. Total IgE was 287 kUA/L, and specific IgE 12.5 kUA/L for T putrescentiae and 3.11 kUA/L for shrimp, and negative for rPen a 1 (tropomyosin). A sample of dry-cured ham provided by the patient demonstrated extensive contamination with Tyrophagus species. The patient reported that the inside of his delivery van was filled with mites. A specific positive bronchial challenge with a commercial extract of T putrescentiae was positive. No late-phase response was observed. A low degree of crossreactivity between T putrescentiae and shrimp was demonstrated. The sera of the patient bound specific IgE to bands at approximately 26 kDa in the T putrescentiae extract and to 4 bands between 15 and 20 kDa in the shrimp extract.

Hev b 5: latex allergen implicated in clinically relevant cross-reactivity with manioc.
Hev b 5, a latex allergen is implicated in clinically relevant cross-reactivity with manioc (cassava). This study evaluated 2 patients with manioc induced anaphylaxis, both of whom also had anaphylaxis to latex, were included. Patient 1 was a 59-year-old Portuguese woman with severe latex allergy related to multiple surgeries, and latex-fruit syndrome. She had an anaphylactic reaction with generalized urticaria, bronchospasm, and laryngeal edema 30 minutes after eating boiled manioc, and a similar reaction 5 minutes after eating raw manioc (tapioca flour). Patient 2 was a 46-year-old Portuguese woman with a severe latex allergy related to occupational exposure (health care worker) and multiple surgeries, and latex-fruit syndrome. She had had an anaphylactic reaction with generalized pruritus, lip and hand angioedema, bronchospasm, and laryngeal edema 10 minutes after eating boiled manioc, and a similar reaction 5 minutes after eating raw manioc (tapioca flour). The results strongly suggest that manioc allergy was a consequence of primary latex sensitization. The latex allergen responsible for this cross-reactivity was Hev b 5. This protein is a strong antigen and one of the most important latex allergens, with a high prevalence in health care workers; furthermore, it has previously been associated with a homologous protein in kiwi fruit.

Delayed anaphylactic reaction to mammalian meat (pork).
A 74-year-old woman with no historyof atopy of allergic disorders developed anaphylaxis 5 hours after eating mammalian meat. Two months after being bitten by ticks 3 years earlier, she experienced delayed anaphylaxis following ingestion roast beef. She also developed anaphylaxis 2 hours after drinking a glass of cows milk. Serum specific IgE antibodies against beef (2.46 kUA/mL), pork (1.51 kUA/mL), mutton (2.61 kUA/mL), and milk (1.52 kUA/mL). The patient ate 50 g each of roast chicken and roast pork without seasoning. She did not develop allergic reactions after eating chicken. However, she developed swelling and redness of the face and generalized wheals 5 hours after eating pork. Allergy was attributed to alpha-gal. Moreover, the patient also experienced anaphylaxis after ingestion of milk, possibly owing to the presence of alpha-gal in milk.

Anaphylaxis to vapors of roasting chicken controlled by omalizumab.
Anaphylaxis to the vapors of roasting chicken that resolved after treatment with omalizumab. A 16-year-old girl consulted for several episodes of allergic reaction (about 10 episodes) following exposure to roasting poultry (chicken and turkey) during the previous 16 months. On at least 2 occasions, she presented laryngeal angioedema with dyspnea, wheeze, and bronchospasm for which she received inhaled adrenaline combined with systemic corticosteroids and emergency care. She had also experienced oral allergy syndrome after eating chicken during the previous 4 years and abdominal pain after eating turkey meat during the previous year. Skin prick tests were positive to fresh chicken and turkey meat, negative for cooked chicken and turkey meat, and negative for the remaining foods tested (spices, chicken liver, and eggs). Specific IgE was negative for chicken serum proteins, cat dander, mustard, beef, turkey meat, dog albumin, ovalbumin, and conalbumin. Total serum IgE was 250 kUA/L. A blinded challenge test with chicken roasting in an oven resulted in wheezing, throat discomfort, and dizziness after 3 minutes of exposure.

IgE immunoblotting of the extract from native chicken leg with the patients serum showed a band at 75 kDa that was not inhibited by chicken serum albumin, an allergen known to migrate within a similar molecular weight range. IgE reactivity to the 75-kDa band disappeared after cooking the extract for 20 minutes. The patients serum showed no IgE reactivity when immunoblotted with roasted skin and roasted leg extract. No IgE binding was detected in the solution eluted from the glass-fiber filter used to collect vapors while the chicken was roasting in the oven. Anaphylaxis to the vapors of roasting poultry is uncommon.

Specific immunoglobulin E antibodies to saprophytic yeasts in sera of atopic patients allergic to house dust mites.
The results of the present study suggest that C pelliculosa and house dust mites share common antigens. This study aimed to investigate the presence of specific immunoglobulin (Ig) E antibodies to the yeast species Candida pelliculosa, Candida guilliermondii, Candida famata, and Rhodotorula rubra in the sera of AD patients and to evaluate possible cross-reactivity between yeasts and allergens of Dermatophagoides. All house dust mitepositive sera had specific IgE antibodies to the yeast species tested: 42% of these sera reacted with all 4 yeast species. The inhibition study demonstrated partial cross-reactivity between IgE class antibodies with the yeast species. This finding indicates that different Candida species and R rubra have species-specific and cross-reactive antigens with partially overlapping epitopes, thus suggesting cross-reactivity with mite allergens. The results of the present study suggest that C pelliculosa and house dust mites share common antigens.

Potential hypersensitivity due to the food or food additive content of medicinal products in Spain.
The Drug Allergy Committee of the Spanish Society of Allergology and Clinical Immunology reviewed the allergenic potential of several substances of food origin that are found in the composition of some drugs. Despite recent legislation on labeling, many labels do not clearly state whether the drug contains raw material (active ingredients, excipient, or other manufacturing intermediate) with an origin in any of the substances in the list of the 14 groups of food allergens that are subject to mandatory declaration. The objective of legislation is that the drug package, the Summary of Product Characteristics, and the patient information leaflet clearly state the food content in order to improve the safety of allergic patients. Therefore, any food or allergen derivative that must be declared should be clearly stated on the drug label. Of all the evaluated products, egg and milk derivatives are the most frequently discussed in literature reviews. The natural or synthetic origin of potentially allergenic substances such as lysozyme, casein, lactose, albumin, phosphatide, and aromatic essences should be clearly stated. Providing this information has 2 clear advantages. First, allergic reactions to drugs in patients with food allergy could be avoided (if the substances have a natural origin). Second, prescription would improve by not restricting drugs containing synthetic substances (which do not usually induce allergic reactions).

Allergy to red caviar.
Salmon roe (SR), also known as red caviar due to its red-orange hue, is widely consumed since it is considerably cheaper than black caviar, is more versatile, and can be eaten with many different foods. A 56-year-old man presented with oral pruritus, vomiting, chest tightness, and dysphagia within minutes of eating red caviar. He did not report any previous or subsequent symptoms after eating any kind of fish or fish or bird eggs. Skin prick tests to common commercial fish (including hake, trout, salmon, monkfish, sardine, sole, and tuna), crustaceans, molluscs, Anisakis simplex, egg yolk, egg white, ovalbumin, and ovomucoid were performed, with negative results. Prick-by-prick tests carried out with salmon roe was positive. Serum-specific IgE against commercial salmon extract, egg yolk, egg white, ovalbumin, and ovomucoid were negative. sIgE for trout roe (TR) and salted hake roe (SHR) were 0.5 kU/L and 0.4 kU/L, respectively. An IgE-immunoblot assay revealed IgE reactivity with 18-kDa and 21-kDa proteins in the SR extract, an 18-kDa protein in the TR extract, and 18- kDa and 30-kDa proteins in the SHR extract. Inhibition assay with SR extract as an inhibitor and TR and SHR extracts in solid phase showed complete IgE-binding inhibition. The relevant allergens are subfragments of vitellogenin such as lipovitellin and ß-c. Cross-reactivity with TR and SHR has also been demonstrated for the first time.

Induction of oral tolerance to peanut: a successful home-based protocol.
In Spain, peanut allergy is increasingly prevalent. Successful protocols for the induction of oral tolerance (LOT) with several foods have been reported. We aimed to induce clinical tolerance to peanut in a child with severe peanut allergy (age 4 years, facial urticaria and lip angioedema upon licking a peanut; peanut skin prick test, 13 x 10 mm; specific immunoglobulin (Ig) E > 100 kUA/L). At age 6, the threshold oral challenge dose was 62.5 mg. Several peanut solutions were prepared and sequentially administered at the patient's home. Over 138 days, the dose was increased from 0.625 to 5500 mg. There were 43 mild-to-moderate reactions (28% of the doses administered). Pre-LOT and post-LOT peanut IgE and IgG4 values were 265 vs 487 kUA/L, and 6.11 vs 14.8 mg/L. This is the first report of successful LOT to peanut in Spain. This home-based regimen is safe under permanent and close medical supervision by an allergist.

Cross-reactive food allergies
The diagnostic approach to cross-reactions to foods has evolved with molecular allergy, and the possibility of investigating the presence of specific serum IgE to recombinant allergens invites the physician to delve into the complex biological mechanisms involved. To appreciate these mechanisms, some landmarks are necessary. In all cases, the allergist must take into consideration the context of the diagnosis of multiple food sensitization, of the clinical symptoms and their severity, of the types of sensitization observed, e.g., to food allergens alone or to food allergens and aeroallergens, and to the families of allergens involved. All these elements must be interpreted according to the cross-reactions previously recognized in vivo, and to those possibly identified in vitro.

Emerging allergen: soy
"Allergy to soybean is rare, whereas the latest data from the allergovigilence network show that soybeans are one of the principal emerging allergens. The clinical manifestations are essentially IgE mediated, with a risk of severe anaphylaxis mainly in patients allergic to peanut or to birch pollen; association with allergy to cow's milk proteins appears to be less frequent. One special feature of soybean allergy is that the threshold for triggering symptoms is often elevated. Characterization of the major allergens and the recent availability of specific IgE assays for nGly m 5, nGly m6 and nGly m 4 provide a better basis for understanding soybean-induced anaphylaxis."

Dimethylfumarate: life and survival of a hapten
"The story of the dimethyl fumarate allergy is a summary of the various problems put in dermato-allergy. It has needed first of all, to perceive the originality of some cases and to identify the causal agent. This substance was used as anti-mould in objects of common use: armchairs, sofas and clothing articles, mainly shoes. The symptoms does not seem to limit itself to skin because respiratory and ophtalmologic symptoms are indicated by patients associations as well as certain degree of persistence It is thus important to confirm it and to envisage a follow-up of the patients. Finally, the institutional attentivenesses, the legislator and the administrations asked to apply their decisions also had an important role to eliminate this severe allergic contact dermatitis."

Severe anaphylaxis wine and grape grape involving LTP (Vit v 1): report of two cases
Anaphylaxis to grape, induced by prick-test to natural grapes, and a case of anaphylaxis to wine are reported. Both were induced by exercise. The first case was allergic to Artemisia and birch pollens. The second case has past multiple allergies to several other fruit and vegetable. Specific IgE to Pru p 3 and Art v 3 were present in both cases. In case 1, the inhibition test of Cap to grape by Bet v 1 was negative. A 95 % inhibition was observed by Art v 3, documenting the involvement of Vit v 1. A primary sensitization to fruit LTP is suggested in case 2. A primary sensitization to Art v 3 is highly probable in case 1. The great variability of the LTP syndrome is emphasized. Because the foods at risk are unpredictable, anti H1, corticosteroids and even self-injectable epinephrine should be prescribed in all the cases.

Changing spectrum of allergy to lipid transfer proteins by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory.
Pru p3, a lipid transfer protein (LTP) is one of peach major allergens. A 38 year-old woman had a history of isolated peach allergy since the childhood (contact urticaria). Consumption of peeled peaches and other rosaceae was well tolerated. She occasionally took non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on demand for migraine. She presented anaphylactic symptoms three hours after nectarine consumption. She had taken ketoprofen before meal. Positive skin prick tests were observed for peach, nectarine, plum and cherry. Specific IgE to Pru p3 were positive, specific IgE for other peach allergens remained negative. Challenge test with nectarine alone and NSAID alone were negative. The authors hypothesize that intake of NSAID before fruit eating may have increased the level of LTP allergen in the serum, leading to clinical manifestations. A similar mechanism has already been descri bed in food anaphylaxis due to wheat with previous NSAID intake. (Lamon 2011 ref.28372 9)
