Molecule solves the problem of food allergy

A British research team was able to reach the molecule may be a problem of the protection of sensitive foods and scientists said it was a missing link in mice that suffer from allergies to foods like peanuts.
The results of the study conducted at the Institute of Food Research and published in the journal "Allergy and Clinical Immunology" that the molecule known as interleukin-12 usually stop the evolution of the sensitivity of different foods.
He said scientists Institute said the results provide a potential target to prevent the sensitivities of different types of foods or processed, as it does not exist in the moment method for the treatment of allergies from food only to refrain from eating certain food items, and ensure the availability of epinephrine can Ahaknoa by close to them to be used immediately after exposure to the problem.
The Dr. Claudio Nicolette based on research and a team from the Institute have found that certain types of white blood cells known as matrix impregnated are important in helping the immune system to determine how to respond to the molecules of exotic, and found that the cells impregnated in mice that suffer from allergies longer survival than normal cells, which are overly alert the immune system.
In the new experiment, conducted on mice, the scientists compared the activity of cells impregnated in the stomach and spleen of mice with allergies and food allergy-resistant mice, and found that in the intestines of mice prone to this problem stopped secreting cells saturated molecule interleukin-12.
Commented Dr. Nicolini, saying that the secretion of food allergies such as raises peanuts along with this molecule may help restore control of the allergic reactions.
He explained that he and his team are currently choosing this theory in mice, and said: "The protein diet can not be harmful at all for a person and a killer for someone else We have identified a molecule missing, which controls usually immune responses and puts them in an appropriate framework."
And remained the possibility that scientists prove the success of this molecule in the control of food allergy in humans.
