Background: We recently cloned and described a vicilin and showed it to be a major cashew
allergen. Additional IgE-reactive cashew peptides of the legumin group and 2S albumin …

BACKGROUND: Cashew nut allergy is the second most commonly reported tree nut allergy
in the United States. We have previously cloned and characterized major cashew allergens …

Both linear and conformational epitopes likely contribute to the allergenicity of tree nut
allergens, yet, due largely to technical issues, few conformational epitopes have been …

Background: The allergens responsible for cashew food allergy have not been well
characterized. Objectives: We initiated a study to clone cDNAs encoding cashew food …

The allergens associated with cashew food allergy have not been well-characterized. We
sought to identify the major allergens in cashew nut by performing IgE immunoblots to …

Allergy to walnut is the most frequently reported tree nut allergy in the United States. Walnut
2S albumin, a vicilin-like protein, and a lipid transfer protein allergen have previously been …

Background: Allergic sensitisation towards cashew nut often happens without a clear history
of eating cashew nut. IgE cross-reactivity between cashew and pistachio nut is well …

Background: Two patients with tree nut allergy manifested by life-threatening systemic
reactions reported the subsequent onset of systemic reactions after the consumption of …

Among tree nut allergens, pecan allergens remain to be identified and characterized. The
objective was to demonstrate the IgE-binding ability of pecan 11S legumin and characterize …

Background Patients allergic to cashew nuts often report allergy to pistachio, which could be
a result of cross‐reactivity between the two as both are members of the Anacardiaceae …
