Food Chem 2024; 455:139882. [PMID: 38824729 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139882] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2024] [Revised: 05/19/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 06/04/2024]
Abstract
A common epitope (AGSFDHKKFFKACGLSGKST) of parvalbumin from 16 fish species was excavated using bioinformatics tools combined with the characterization of fish parvalbumin binding profile of anti-single epitope antibody in this study. A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on the common epitope was established with a limit of detection of 10.15 ng/mL and a limit of quantification of 49.29 ng/mL. The developed ELISA exhibited a narrow range (71% to 107%) of related cross-reactivity of 15 fish parvalbumin. Besides, the recovery, the coefficient of variations for the intra-assay and the inter-assay were 84.3% to 108.2%, 7.4% to 13.9% and 8.5% to 15.6%. Our findings provide a novel idea for the development of a broad detection method for fish allergens and a practical tool for the detection of parvalbumin of economic fish species in food samples.

Effects of different ohmic heating treatments on parvalbumin structure and reduction of allergenicity in Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica). Food Chem 2024; 432:137257. [PMID: 37659327 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137257] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/22/2023] [Indexed: 09/04/2023]
Abstract
We investigated the effects of ohmic heating (OH) on the structural properties and allergenicity of parvalbumin (PV). Compared to other heating methods (water bath heating (WH), OH combined with WH, and OH combined with air thermostatic heating (AH)), pure OH heating expended the least time and total energy. PV sensitization was reduced by approximately 65% by pure OH heating. SDS-PAGE, tricine-SDS-PAGE, and western blotting analyses revealed a molecular weight of sensitized β-PV of about 12 kDa. Band intensity decreased with increasing OH time, and significant changes were observed in amino acid content, secondary structure, microstructure, and dielectric properties. Reducing PV, allergenicity through protein unfolding and secondary structural changes, thereby possibly reducing the allergenicity of eel, provides a theoretical basis for developing hypoallergenic products.

Allergy 2023; 78:3221-3234. [PMID: 37650248 PMCID: PMC10952748 DOI: 10.1111/all.15864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2022] [Revised: 07/30/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 09/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Major fish allergens, including parvalbumin (PV), are heat stable and can withstand extensive cooking processes. Thus, the management of fish allergy generally relies on complete avoidance. Fish-allergic patients may be advised to consume canned fish, as some fish-allergic individuals have reported tolerance to canned fish. However, the safety of consuming canned fish has not been evaluated with comprehensive immunological and molecular analysis of canned fish products. METHODS We characterized the in vitro immunoreactivity of serum obtained from fish-allergic subjects to canned fish. Seventeen canned fish products (salmon n = 8; tuna n = 7; sardine n = 2) were assessed for the content and integrity of PV using allergen-specific antibodies. Subsequently, the sIgE binding of five selected products was evaluated for individual fish-allergic patients (n = 53). Finally, sIgE-binding proteins were identified by mass spectrometry. RESULTS The canned fish showed a markedly reduced PV content and binding to PV-specific antibodies compared with conventionally cooked fish. However, PV and other heat-stable fish allergens, including tropomyosin and collagen, still maintained their sIgE-binding capacity. Of 53 patients, 66% showed sIgE binding to canned fish proteins. The canned sardine contained proteins bound to sIgE from 51% of patients, followed by canned salmon (43%-45%) and tuna (8%-17%). PV was the major allergen in canned salmon and sardine. Tropomyosin and/or collagen also showed sIgE binding. CONCLUSION We showed that canned fish products may not be safe for all fish-allergic patients. Canned fish products should only be considered into the diet of individuals with fish allergy, after detailed evaluation which may include in vitro diagnostics to various heat-stable fish allergens and food challenge conducted in suitable environments.

Abstract
Allergenic cross-reactivity among food allergens complicates the diagnosis and management of food allergy. This can result in many patients being sensitized (having allergen-specific IgE) to foods without exhibiting clinical reactivity. Some food groups such as shellfish, fish, tree nuts, and peanuts have very high rates of cross-reactivity. In contrast, relatively low rates are noted for grains and milk, whereas many other food families have variable rates of cross-reactivity or are not well studied. Although classical cross-reactive carbohydrate determinants are clinically not relevant, α-Gal in red meat through tick bites can lead to severe reactions. Multiple sensitizations to tree nuts complicate the diagnosis and management of patients allergic to peanut and tree nut. This review discusses cross-reactive allergens and cross-reactive carbohydrate determinants in the major food groups, and where available, describes their B-cell and T-cell epitopes. The clinical relevance of these cross-reactive B-cell and T-cell epitopes is highlighted and their possible impact on allergen-specific immunotherapy for food allergy is discussed.

Abstract
Seafoods are fashionable delicacies with high nutritional values and culinary properties, while seafood belongs to worldwide common food allergens. In recent years, many seafood allergens have been identified, while the diversity of various seafood species give a great challenge in identifying and characterizing seafood allergens, mapping IgE-binding epitopes and allergen immunotherapy development, which are critical for allergy diagnostics and immunotherapy treatments. This paper reviewed the recent progress on seafood (fish, crustacean, and mollusk) allergens, IgE-binding epitopes and allergen immunotherapy for seafood allergy. In recent years, many newly identified seafood allergens were reported, this work concluded the current situation of seafood allergen identification and designation by the World Health Organization (WHO)/International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS) Allergen Nomenclature Sub-Committee. Moreover, this review represented the recent advances in identifying the IgE-binding epitopes of seafood allergens, which were helpful to the diagnosis, prevention and treatment for seafood allergy. Furthermore, the allergen immunotherapy could alleviate seafood allergy and provide promising approaches for seafood allergy treatment. This review represents the recent advances and future outlook on seafood allergen identification, IgE-binding epitope mapping and allergen immunotherapy strategies for seafood allergy prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Fish parvalbumins are heat-stable calcium-binding proteins that are highly cross-reactive in causing allergy symptoms in fish-sensitized patients. The reactivities of parvalbumin-specific monoclonal or polyclonal antibodies with parvalbumins of different fish species allowed their application for development of various immunoassays for allergen identification in fish samples. In this study, monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were generated against two parvalbumins - natural Atlantic cod parvalbumin and recombinant common carp β-parvalbumin expressed in E. coli. Large collections of recombinant parvalbumins and natural allergen extracts of different fish species and other animals were used to identify the specificities of these MAbs using ELISA, Western blot, and dot blot. MAbs demonstrated different patterns of cross-reactivities with recombinant parvalbumins. Their binding affinities were affected by the addition and removal of Ca2+ ions. Moreover, all MAbs showed a broad reactivity with the target antigens in natural fish, chicken, and pork extracts. The ability of two MAbs (clones 7B2 and 3F6) to identify and isolate native parvalbumins from allergen extracts was confirmed by Western blot. Epitope mapping using recombinant fragments of Atlantic cod parvalbumin (Gad m 1) and common carp parvalbumin (Cyp c 1) revealed that 4 out of 5 MAbs recognize parvalbumin regions that contain calcium binding sites. In conclusion, the generated broadly reactive well-characterized MAbs against fish β-parvalbumins could be applied for investigation of parvalbumins of fish and other animals and their detection in allergen extracts.

Abstract
Cod is rich in high-quality proteins and is a popular ingredient in many cuisines. However, it has also been a culprit in many seafood allergy cases. In the present study, the effect of pretreatment with Allium powders on the allergenicity and sensory profile of roasted cod was investigated. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) showed significantly reduced antibody-binding capacity of the Allium-pretreated samples compared with the control. The anti-allergenic effect was further confirmed with indirect ELISA using human sera. Moreover, the Allium pretreatments resulted in lower free sulfhydryl contents and higher surface hydrophobicity of the protein extracts prepared from the roasted cod samples, consistent with structural changes in favor of reduced allergenicity. Among the five Allium spp. evaluated, Chinese chive was the most effective, and mangiferin was identified to be a major anti-allergenic constituent. Docking simulation and mass spectrometry analyses revealed its strong parvalbumin-binding affinity and capability to reduce parvalbumin content in roasted cod, respectively. Finally, sensory evaluation indicated that the attenuation of allergenicity of roasted cod with the Allium spp. powders was accompanied by positive modulation of its flavor and taste profiles. These findings may provide insights for the development of dietary-phytochemical-based strategies for the management of parvalbumin-associated allergies.

Abstract
Dioxygen is an integral part of every living organism, but its concentration varies from organ to organ. Production of metabolites from dioxygen may result in oxidative stress. Since oxidative stress has the potential to damage various biomolecules in the cell, therefore, it has presently become an active field of research. Oxidative stress has been studied in a wide range of model organisms from vertebrates to invertebrates, from rodents to piscine organisms, and from in vivo to in vitro models. But zebrafish (adults, larvae, or embryonic stage) emerged out to be the most promising vertebrate model organism to study oxidative stress because of its vast advantages (transparent embryo, cost-effectiveness, similarity to human genome, easy developmental processes, numerous offspring per spawning, and many more). This is evidenced by voluminous number of researches on oxidative stress in zebrafish exposed to chemicals, radiations, nanoparticles, pesticides, heavy metals, etc. On these backgrounds, this review attempts to highlight the potentiality of zebrafish as model of oxidative stress compared with other companion models. Several areas, from biomedical to environmental research, have been covered to explain it as a more convenient and reliable animal model for experimental research on oxidative mechanisms.

Abstract
A sensitive Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) with improved broad species specificity was developed for the detection of southern hemisphere fish residues in processed foods. The polyclonal antibodies were raised against parvalbumins from 13 fish species representing 7 fish orders selected for their molecular diversity and immunoreactivity profile. The optimized ELISA-2 (based on the rabbit capture antibody (RB#4) - sheep detection antibody (S2#4) pair) displayed an improved detection limit of 0.6 μg/L (3.7 μg of /kg). Our immunoreactivity-directed species selection approach in the strategized antibody production significantly improved the detection of no or weakly immunoreactive fish species previously not detected immunochemically. Of 37 commercially important fish species tested, the ELISA-2 could detect 28 fish species (76%). The optimized sample extraction with a buffer additive achieved good protein recoveries of 87.2 - 117.3% (within the AOAC recommended range). The ELISA-2 was able to detect fish residues in five highly processed food products.

Abstract
A new sandwich-type Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) method was developed based on goat IgG as capturing antibody and rabbit IgG as detecting antibody targeting soluble antigenic fish proteins in foods as detection targets. The assay has provided a relatively lower limit of quantitation (LoQ) for fish proteins with LoQ 0.5 ng/ml and appears highly sensitive. The analysis of 24 different substances, both raw and boiled, revealed no cross-reactivity above the cut-off point of the limit of quantitation. Recoveries of the SB spiked food matrixes were in the range of 83-131%. Assay precision testing proved that repeatability (<5%) and reproducibility (<11%) had an acceptable level of variation. The sandwich ELISA was capable of detecting all tested commercially important fish. As a potential analytical tool, the newly developed immunoenzymatic method is suitable for detecting undeclared fish residues in real food samples available in the market, thereby will help to reduce the incidents of fish allergies.

Abstract
The accurate and precise diagnosis of IgE-mediated fish allergy is one of the biggest challenges in allergy diagnostics. A wide range of fish species that belong to evolutionary distant classes are consumed globally. Moreover, each fish species may contain multiple isoforms of a given allergen that often differ in their allergenicity. Recent studies indicated that the cross-reactivity between different fish species is limited in some cases and depends on the evolutionary conservation of the involved allergens. Fish allergens belong to several protein families with different levels of stability to food processing. Additionally, different preparation methods may contribute to specific sensitization patterns to specific fish species and allergens in different geographic regions. Here, we review the challenges and opportunities for improved diagnostic approaches to fish allergy. Current diagnostic shortcomings include the absence of important region-specific fish species in commercial in vitro and in vivo tests as well as the lack of their standardization as has been recently demonstrated for skin prick test solutions. These diagnostic shortcomings may compromise patients' safety by missing some of the relevant species and yielding false negative test results. In contrast, the avoidance of all fish as a common management approach is usually not necessary as many patients may be only sensitized to specific species and allergens. Although food challenges remain the gold standard, other diagnostic approaches are investigated such as the basophil activation test. In the context of molecular allergy diagnosis, we discuss the usefulness of single allergens and raw and heated fish extracts. Recent developments such as allergen microarrays offer the possibility to simultaneously quantify serum IgE specific to multiple allergens and allergen sources. Such multiplex platforms may be used in the future to design diagnostic allergen panels covering evolutionary distant fish species and allergens relevant for particular geographic regions.

Ann Work Expo Health 2021; 65:694-702. [PMID: 34109979 DOI: 10.1093/annweh/wxaa104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2019] [Revised: 08/27/2020] [Accepted: 10/19/2020] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The main objective was to gain more knowledge on exposure to bioaerosols in the processing area on board fishing trawlers. METHODS Exposure sampling was carried out during the work shifts when processing fish in the processing area on board five deep-sea fishing trawlers (trawlers 1-5). Exposure samples were collected from 64 fishermen breathing zone and from stationary sampling stations on board five deep-sea fishing trawlers (1-5). Trawlers 2, 3, and 4 were old ships, not originally built for on board processing of the catch. Trawlers 1 and 5 were relatively new and built to accommodate processing machineries. On trawlers 1-4 round fish was produced; the head and entrails were removed before the fishes were frozen in blocks. Trawler 5 had the most extensive processing, producing fish fillets. Samples were analysed for total protein, trypsin activity, parvalbumin, and endotoxin. One side analysis of variance and Kruskal-Wallis H test were used to compare levels of exposure on the different trawlers. RESULTS Personal exposure to total protein were higher on the three oldest trawlers (2, 3, and 4) compared with the two new trawlers (1 and 5). Highest activity of trypsin was detected on the four trawlers producing round fish (1-4). Parvalbumin was detected in 58% of samples from the fillet-trawler (5) compared with 13% of samples from the four trawlers producing round fish. The highest level of endotoxin was detected when using high-pressure water during cleaning machines and floors in the processing area. CONCLUSIONS Fishermen in the processing area on board Norwegian trawlers are exposed to airborne bioaerosols as proteins, trypsin, fish allergen parvalbumin, and endotoxin. Levels varied between trawlers and type of production.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diagnostic tests for fish allergy are hampered by the large number of under-investigated fish species. Four salmon allergens are well-characterized and registered with the WHO/IUIS while no catfish allergens have been described so far. In 2008, freshwater-cultured catfish production surpassed that of salmon, the globally most-cultured marine species. We aimed to identify, quantify, and compare all IgE-binding proteins in salmon and catfish. METHODS Seventy-seven pediatric patients with clinically confirmed fish allergy underwent skin prick tests to salmon and catfish. The allergen repertoire of raw and heated protein extracts was evaluated by immunoblotting using five allergen-specific antibodies and patients' serum followed by mass spectrometric analyses. RESULTS Raw and heated extracts from catfish displayed a higher frequency of IgE-binding compared to those from salmon (77% vs 70% and 64% vs 53%, respectively). The major fish allergen parvalbumin demonstrated the highest IgE-binding capacity (10%-49%), followed by triosephosphate isomerase (TPI; 19%-34%) in raw and tropomyosin (6%-32%) in heated extracts. Six previously unidentified fish allergens, including TPI, were registered with the WHO/IUIS. Creatine kinase from salmon and catfish was detected by IgE from 14% and 10% of patients, respectively. Catfish L-lactate dehydrogenase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, and glucose-6-phosphate isomerase showed IgE-binding for 6%-13% of patients. In salmon, these proteins could not be separated successfully. CONCLUSIONS We detail the allergen repertoire of two highly farmed fish species. IgE-binding to fish tropomyosins and TPIs was demonstrated for the first time in a large patient cohort. Tropomyosins, in addition to parvalbumins, should be considered for urgently needed improved fish allergy diagnostics.

[PMID: 33423763 DOI: 10.1016/j.molimm.2020.12.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2020] [Revised: 11/18/2020] [Accepted: 12/23/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The IgE- and IgG4-binding patterns of the major fish allergen parvalbumins are not clearly understood. IgE antibody-binding to parvalbumin from Asian seabass, Lat c 1.01, is implicated in up to 90 % of allergic reactions, although the region of IgE or IgG4 epitopes are unknown. In the present study, we characterized the specific IgE- and IgG4-binding regions of Lat c 1.01 using serum from pediatric and adult patients with clinically-confirmed fish allergy. METHODS A comparative investigation of patient IgE- and IgG4-binding to recombinant Lat c 1.01 was performed by immunoblotting and indirect ELISA using serum from 15 children and eight adults with clinically confirmed IgE-mediated reactions to fish. The IgE- and IgG4-binding regions of Lat c 1.01 were determined by inhibition ELISA using seven overlapping peptides spanning the entire 102 amino acid sequence. Elucidated IgE-binding regions were modelled and compared to known antibody-binding regions of parvalbumins from five other fish species. RESULTS Ninety five percent (22/23) patients demonstrated IgE-binding to rLat c 1.01, while fewer patients (10/15 children and 7/8 adults) demonstrated robust IgG4 binding when determined by immunoblots. IgE-binding for both cohorts was significantly higher compared to IgG4-binding by ELISA. All patients in this study presented individual IgE and IgG4 epitope-recognition profiles. In addition to these patient-specific antibody binding sites, general IgE epitopes were also identified at the C- and N-terminal regions of this major fish allergen. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Our findings demonstrate two specific IgE epitopes on parvalbumin from Asian seabass, while IgG4 binding is much lower and patient specific. This study highlights the importance of advancement in epitope analysis regardless of the age group for diagnostics and immunotherapies for fish allergy.

Abstract
People eat many varieties of food to satiate their hunger. Among them, a few numbers of food cause overreaction of the body's immune system, and fish holds a permanent position on that list. Processing methods, including one treatment or a combination, can have different effects on the allergenic potential of food proteins. An important point to note, however, is that not all of these methods can eliminate the potential for protein allergy. Thus, it is essential to understand the risk involved with the consumption of processed fish and its derivatives. Fish could be prepared in various ways before come to the dining plate. It has shown some of these methods can effectively manipulate the allergenicity owing to the alterations occurred in the protein conformation. This article provides an overview of the impact of fish processing methods (thermal and non-thermal) on the allergenic potential of fish along with possible causative structural modification provokes allergen stability. The article begins with current trends related to fish consumption, proceeds with the prevalence and underlying mechanism of fish allergy. Properties of clinically relevant fish proteins, projected IgE epitopes of PV, cross-reactivity of fish allergens are also addressed in this context to understand and compare the behavioral patterns of PV profiles of different species on processing methods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fish is a major food and allergen source, requiring safety declarations on packages. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) are often used to ensure that the product meets the required standards with regard to the presence of allergens. Over 1000 different fish species are traded and consumed worldwide, and they are increasingly provided by aquaculture. Up to 3% of the general population is at risk of sometimes fatal allergic reactions to fish, requiring strict avoidance of this commodity. The aim of this study is to evaluate the capacity of three commercially available ELISA tests to detect a wide variety of bony and cartilaginous fish and their products, which is essential to ensure reliable and safe food labeling. RESULTS The detection rates for 57 bony fish ranged from 26% to 61%. Common European and North American species, including carp, cod, and salmon species, demonstrated a higher detection rate than those from the Asia-Pacific region, including pangasius and several mackerel and tuna species. Among the 17 canned bony fish products, only 65% to 86% were detected, with tuna showing the lowest rate. None of the cartilaginous fish (n = 9), other vertebrates (n = 8), or shellfish (n = 5) were detected. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated that three commercial fish ELISA kits had a limited capacity to detect fish and their products. The complexity of fish as a protein source that is increasingly utilized means that there is an urgent need for improved detection methods. This is crucial for the food industry to provide safe seafood products and comply with international legislation. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Purpose The basophil activation test (BAT) has been reported to be useful for the diagnosis of various food allergies, such as allergy to peanut, but not to fish. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the BAT for fish allergy. Methods We performed a retrospective review of patients with fish allergy who underwent the BAT using a panel of fish extracts (15 kinds) to examine the differential reactivity to several species of fish. The BAT score for each extract was expressed as the ratio of CD203chigh% with the extract to that with anti-IgE antibody. Clinical reactivity to each fish was confirmed by positive oral food challenge or a typical history of fish-induced immediate allergy symptoms. Receiver-operating-characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to evaluate the diagnostic performance. Results Fifty-one patients with fish allergy were analyzed. Using extracts of 15 species of fish, the BAT was performed a total of 184 times on the patients. Clinical allergy to each species of fish was confirmed in 90 (48.9%) of those tests. ROC analysis yielded high areas under the curve for the BAT scores for the 5 most common fish species (0.72–0.88). The diagnostic accuracy ranged from 0.74 to 0.86. Using a tentative cutoff value of 0.3 deduced from the ROC analyses of the 5 fish species, the accuracy for other fish allergic reactions was generally high (0.6–1.0), except the fish tested in a small number of patients. Conclusions The BAT score based on CD203c expression may be useful for fish allergy diagnosis, especially since a large variety of fish can be tested by the BAT using fish extracts prepared by a simple method.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Commercial allergen extracts for allergy skin prick testing (SPT) are widely used for diagnosing fish allergy. However, there is currently no regulatory requirement for standardization of protein and allergen content, potentially impacting the diagnostic reliability of SPTs. We therefore sought to analyse commercial fish extracts for the presence and concentration of fish proteins and in vitro IgE reactivity using serum from fish-allergic patients. METHODS Twenty-six commercial fish extracts from five different manufacturers were examined. The protein concentrations were determined, protein compositions analysed by mass spectrometry, followed by SDS-PAGE and subsequent immunoblotting with antibodies detecting 4 fish allergens (parvalbumin, tropomyosin, aldolase and collagen). IgE-reactive proteins were identified using serum from 16 children with confirmed IgE-mediated fish allergy, with focus on cod, tuna and salmon extracts. RESULTS The total protein, allergen concentration and IgE reactivity of the commercial extracts varied over 10-fold between different manufacturers and fish species. The major fish allergen parvalbumin was not detected by immunoblotting in 6/26 extracts. In 7/12 extracts, five known fish allergens were detected by mass spectrometry. For cod and tuna, almost 70% of patients demonstrated the strongest IgE reactivity to collagen, tropomyosin, aldolase A or β-enolase but not parvalbumin. CONCLUSIONS Commercial fish extracts often contain insufficient amounts of important allergens including parvalbumin and collagen, resulting in low IgE reactivity. A comprehensive proteomic approach for the evaluation of SPT extracts for their utility in allergy diagnostics is presented. There is an urgent need for standardized allergen extracts, which will improve the diagnosis and management of fish allergy.

Patients Allergic to Fish Tolerate Ray Based on the Low Allergenicity of Its Parvalbumin. THE JOURNAL OF ALLERGY AND CLINICAL IMMUNOLOGY-IN PRACTICE 2018; 7:500-508.e11. [PMID: 30471362 PMCID: PMC7060078 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2018.11.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2018] [Revised: 10/13/2018] [Accepted: 11/09/2018] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Background Clinical reactions to bony fish species are common in patients with allergy to fish and are caused by parvalbumins of the β-lineage. Cartilaginous fish such as rays and sharks contain mainly α-parvalbumins and their allergenicity is not well understood. Objective To investigate the allergenicity of cartilaginous fish and their α-parvalbumins in individuals allergic to bony fish. Methods Sensitization to cod, salmon, and ray among patients allergic to cod, salmon, or both (n = 18) was explored by prick-to-prick testing. Clinical reactivity to ray was assessed in 11 patients by food challenges or clinical workup. IgE-binding to β-parvalbumins (cod, carp, salmon, barramundi, tilapia) and α-parvalbumins (ray, shark) was determined by IgE-ELISA. Basophil activation tests and skin prick tests were performed with β-parvalbumins from cod, carp, and salmon and α-parvalbumins from ray and shark. Results Tolerance of ray was observed in 10 of 11 patients. Prick-to-prick test reactions to ray were markedly lower than to bony fish (median wheal diameter 2 mm with ray vs 11 mm with cod and salmon). IgE to α-parvalbumins was lower (median, 0.1 kU/L for ray and shark) than to β-parvalbumins (median, ≥1.65 kU/L). Furthermore, α-parvalbumins demonstrated a significantly reduced basophil activation capacity compared with β-parvalbumins (eg, ray vs cod, P < .001; n = 18). Skin prick test further demonstrated lower reactivity to α-parvalbumins compared with β-parvalbumins. Conclusions Most patients allergic to bony fish tolerated ray, a cartilaginous fish, because of low allergenicity of its α-parvalbumin. A careful clinical workup and in vitro IgE-testing for cartilaginous fish will improve patient management and may introduce an alternative to bony fish into patients’ diet.

Abstract
Seafood refers to several distinct groups of edible aquatic animals including fish, crustacean, and mollusc. The two invertebrate groups of crustacean and mollusc are, for culinary reasons, often combined as shellfish but belong to two very different phyla. The evolutionary and taxonomic diversity of the various consumed seafood species poses a challenge in the identification and characterisation of the major and minor allergens critical for reliable diagnostics and therapeutic treatments. Many allergenic proteins are very different between these groups; however, some pan-allergens, including parvalbumin, tropomyosin and arginine kinase, seem to induce immunological and clinical cross-reactivity. This extensive review details the advances in the bio-molecular characterisation of 20 allergenic proteins within the three distinct seafood groups; fish, crustacean and molluscs. Furthermore, the structural and biochemical properties of the major allergens are described to highlight the immunological and subsequent clinical cross-reactivities. A comprehensive list of purified and recombinant allergens is provided, and the applications of component-resolved diagnostics and current therapeutic developments are discussed.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Allergen extracts are still widely used in allergy diagnosis as they are regarded as sensitive screening tools despite the fact that they may lack some minor allergens. Another drawback of extracts is their low specificity, which is due to the presence of cross-reactive allergens. Progress in allergen identification has disclosed a number of allergenic molecules of homologous sequence and structure which are present in different animal species. This review summarizes recent advances in mammalian and fish allergen identification and focuses on their clinical relevance. RECENT FINDINGS Serum albumins and parvalbumins are well-known animal panallergens. More recently several members of the lipocalin family were found to be cross-reactive between furry animals whereas in fish, additional allergens, enolase, aldolase and collagen, were found to be important and cross-reactive allergens. New epidemiological studies have analysed the prevalence and clinical relevance of mammalian and fish components. Primary sensitization can be distinguished from cross-sensitization by using marker allergens. Although substantial progress has been made in allergen identification, only few markers are commercially available for routine clinical practice.

Abstract
Allergy to bony fish is common and probably increasing world-wide. The major heat-stable pan-fish allergen, parvalbumin (PV), has been identified and characterized for numerous fish species. In contrast, there are very few reports of allergic reactions to cartilaginous fish despite widespread consumption. The molecular basis for this seemingly low clinical cross-reactivity between these two fish groups has not been elucidated. PV consists of two distinct protein lineages, α and β. The α-lineage of this protein is predominant in muscle tissue of cartilaginous fish (Chondrichthyes), while β-PV is abundant in muscle tissue of bony fish (Osteichthyes). The low incidence of allergic reactions to ingested rays and sharks is likely due to the lack of molecular similarity, resulting in reduced immunological cross-reactivity between the two PV lineages. Structurally and physiologically, both protein lineages are very similar; however, the amino acid homology is very low with 47-54%. Furthermore, PV from ancient fish species such as the coelacanth demonstrates 62% sequence homology to leopard shark α-PV and 70% to carp β-PV. This indicates the extent of conservation of the PV isoforms lineages across millennia. This review highlights prevalence data on fish allergy and sensitization to fish, and details the molecular diversity of the two protein lineages of the major fish allergen PV among different fish groups, emphasizing the immunological and clinical differences in allergenicity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inhibition assays are an useful tool to identify the allergen of primary sensitization of cross-reactive allergens. Classical ELISA-based inhibition assays are limited by both the availability of commercial standardized allergen extracts and the experience and knowledge needed for making home-made extracts. Moreover the direct comparison of the inhibition ELISAs outcomes between different laboratories is difficult because of different sources of used allergen extracts and a number of methodological variations. Therefore, we propose a novel ImmunoCap (Phadia, Thermofisher Scientific) based immunoinhibition method with the use of commercially available Caps as the allergen source. METHODS The novel ImmunoCap based immunoinhibition method was developed and tested with sera from patients with a well-known cross-reactive sensitization for fig (Ficus carica) and ficus (Ficus benjamina). Results were compared with a classically applied inhibition method, i.e. addition of homemade allergen extract to patient serum. RESULTS The amount of allergens (fig and ficus extracts) needed to reach a similar degree of inhibition was comparable for both inhibition methods. CONCLUSIONS The ImmunoCap based inhibition assay, in addition to classical inhibition methods, is a valuable tool as the ImmunoCap analyzer and commercial allergens (Caps) are more widely available which makes the outcomes of inhibition tests comparable between different laboratories. Furthermore, in the ImmunoCap inhibition method the same protein source is used for both the inhibition of sIgE and sIgE measurement, which might be even more relevant when multiple cross-reactive allergens are tested.

Abstract
Fish allergy is associated with moderate to severe IgE-mediated reactions to the calcium binding parvalbumins present in fish muscle. Allergy to multiple fish species is caused by parvalbumin-specific cross-reactive IgE recognizing conserved epitopes. In this study, we aimed to produce cross-reactive single chain variable fragment (scFv) antibodies for the detection of parvalbumins in fish extracts and the identification of IgE epitopes. Parvalbumin-specific phage clones were isolated from the human ETH-2 phage display library by three rounds of biopanning either against cod parvalbumin or by sequential biopanning against cod (Gad m 1), carp (Cyp c 1) and rainbow trout (Onc m 1) parvalbumins. While biopanning against Gad m 1 resulted in the selection of clones specific exclusively for Gad m 1, the second approach resulted in the selection of clones cross-reacting with all three parvalbumins. Two clones, scFv-gco9 recognizing all three parvalbumins, and scFv-goo8 recognizing only Gad m 1 were expressed in the E. coli non-suppressor strain HB2151 and purified from the periplasm. scFv-gco9 showed highly selective binding to parvalbumins in processed fish products such as breaded cod sticks, fried carp and smoked trout in Western blots. In addition, the scFv-gco9-AP produced as alkaline phosphatase fusion protein, allowed a single-step detection of the parvalbumins. In competitive ELISA, scFv-gco9 was able to inhibit binding of IgE from fish allergic patients’ sera to all three β-parvalbumins by up to 80%, whereas inhibition by scFv-goo8 was up to 20%. 1H/15N HSQC NMR analysis of the rGad m 1:scFv-gco9 complex showed participation of amino acid residues conserved among these three parvalbumins explaining their cross-reactivity on a molecular level. In this study, we have demonstrated an approach for the selection of cross-reactive parvalbumin-specific antibodies that can be used for allergen detection and for mapping of conserved epitopes.
