BACKGROUND: CD300a is an inhibitory receptor (IR) expressed on several leukocytes, including mast cells (MCs) and macrophages (MΦ), important cells in allergic inflammation (AI). We have previously characterized CD300a role on MCs and in vivo in mouse models of allergy, in which the absence of CD300a resulted in increased inflammatory features and delayed resolution. However, the exact mechanism of this delayed resolution is unclear. Our hypothesis is that MΦ, important players in resolution, might be impaired when CD300a is absent...

Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) is a non-IgE-mediated gastrointestinal food-induced hypersensitivity disorder that occurs mostly in infants. Long considered a rare disease, a recent increase in physician awareness and publication of diagnosis of guidelines has resulted in an increase in recognized FPIES cases. We aimed to conduct a systematic review of FPIES studies in the past 10 years. A search was conducted on PubMed and Embase in March 2022. Our systematic review focused on 2 domains: (1) the most reported FPIES food triggers; and (2) the resolution rate and median age at resolution of patients with FPIES...

INTRODUCTION: Beta-lactam (BL) antibiotics are the most often involved drugs in allergic reactions. Mild cutaneous reactions such as maculopapular exanthema or urticaria are the most common presenting complaints of BL allergy in the pediatric population. However, it can be challenging to distinguish BL-induced allergy from reactions due to infections or other reasons. In this study, we aimed to determine the clinical characteristics and potential risk factors of true BL allergy in children with suspected mild cutaneous reactions to BLs...

As the first line of defense against risk factors, the nasal epithelial barrier maintains homeostasis in nasal mucosa. The composition of the epithelial barrier contains physical, chemical, immune, and microbiological barriers. Together, these barriers form the nasal defense against irritations. Risk factors from both internal and external environments can disrupt them. External risk factors contain allergens containing proteases, bacteria, virus, particulate matter, diesel exhaust particles, and cigarette smoke...

INTRODUCTION: Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa, the incidence of which can reach 10-30% worldwide. RBCK1 (RANBP2-type and C3HC4-type zinc finger-containing 1) is a protein found in nasal epithelial cells; however, its function is not fully understood. METHODS: In this study, RT-qPCR and Western blotting were used to detect RBCK1 expression in the nasal epithelial tissues of AR and non-AR patients. Next, an AR cell model was established by using the house dust mite allergen (Derp1), and the model cells were then transfected with RBCK1 or NLRP3 overexpression plasmids...
