Kochia scoparia pollen has been demonstrated as an important cause of pollinosis in
tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. The aim of this study was to characterize the …

■ Abstract Background and objective: Pollen from Japanese hop, Humulus japonicus, is a
major cause of pollinosis in Korea. Profilin (15 kDa) from Humulus scandens has been …

To express and purify the profilin from lychee fruits and study on its immunological
characteristics and cross-reactivity with other allergens. The ORF of profilin from lychee was …

Background Profilin is a panallergen that is recognized by IgE from about 20% of birch
pollen‐and plant food‐allergic patients. A subgroup of celery‐allergic patients shows IgE …

Because of their structural similarity and ubiquituous distribution as actin binding proteins,
plant profilins represent important cross-reactive allergens for almost 20% of patients …

Profilin, an actin-binding protein, was previously described as a ubiquitous allergen which is
responsible for cross-reactivities in about 20% of pollen and food allergic patients. A …

Background: Major allergens of oilseed rape (OSR) pollen with molecular weights of 6/8, 14
and between 27 and 69 kD have been described. The aim of the present study was to further …

The aim of this study was to investigate a new allergen of Salsola kali, Sal k 4, and to
investigate the predictive value of the conserved conformational regions in cross-reactivity …

Profilin is a panallergen which is recognised by IgE from about 20% of birch pollen-and
plant food-allergic patients. Little is known about epitope diversity among these homologous …

Parietaria judaica pollen is one of the main sources of allergens in the Mediterranean area.
Its allergenic composition has been studied in detail showing the presence of two major …
