Background
Environmental exposure to peanut through non‐oral routes is a risk factor for peanut allergy. Early‐life exposure to air pollutants, including particulate matter (PM), is associated with sensitization to foods through unknown mechanisms. We investigated whether PM promotes sensitization to environmental peanut and the development of peanut allergy in a mouse model.
Methods
C57BL/6J mice...
Background
Conventional basophil activation tests (BATs) measure basophil activation by the increased expression of CD63. Previously, fluorophore‐labeled avidin, a positively‐charged molecule, was found to bind to activated basophils, which tend to expose negatively charged granule constituents during degranulation. This study further compares avidin versus CD63 as basophil activation biomarkers...
Background
New treatment options with improved safety and novel mechanisms of actions are needed for patients with peanut allergy.
Objectives
To evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of ASP0892, a peanut DNA vaccine, after intradermal (id) or intramuscular (im) administration in adult or adolescent patients with peanut allergy in two phase 1 studies.
Methods
ASP0892 or placebo...
