Abstract
This study aimed to assess the effect of novel thermal glycation, utilizing microwave processing (100-150 °C) combined with sugars (glucose and lactose), on the in vitro protein digestibility, peptides, secondary structures, microstructures, and allergenic properties of Atlantic cod. The research demonstrated that microwave heating at 150 °C with glucose significantly reduced cod allergenicity by up to 16.16%, while also enhancing in vitro protein digestibility to 69.05%. Glucose was found to be more effective than lactose in conjunction with microwave heating in reducing the allergenicity of Atlantic cod. Moreover, treatments conducted at 150 °C were more effective in increasing in vitro protein digestibility and peptide content compared to those at 100 °C. This study revealed that the novel processing technique of thermal glycation effectively reduced the allergenicity of Atlantic cod. It also offered fresh insights into the potential benefits of combining microwave heating with sugars.

Abstract
Egg allergy is one of the most common food allergies globally. This study aimed to assess the impact of four traditional cooking methods on the allergenicity of egg proteins using a comprehensive strategy, including simulated gastrointestinal digestion in vitro, serology experiments, a rat basophilic leukemia (RBL)-2H3 cell degranulation model, and a passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) mice model, and the structure changes were detected by circular dichroism (CD) spectra and ultraviolet (UV) spectra. The results showed that the processed egg proteins were more readily digested compared to raw egg proteins. The serological experiments revealed a significant reduction in immunoglobulin E binding of egg proteins after thermal treatments (p < 0.05), particularly after frying. Subsequently, the RBL-2H3 cell degranulation experiment demonstrated a marked decrease in the level of egg allergens-induced β-hexosaminidase release after cooking (p < 0.05). Moreover, the results from the PCA mice model indicated that the increase in vascular permeability was effectively relieved in the treated groups, especially in frying group (p < 0.05). Additionally, the α-helix and β-turn contents of processed egg proteins were significantly decreased (p < 0.05) compared with native egg proteins. The UV spectra findings showed that all cooking treatments caused significant alterations in the tertiary structure, and fluorescence analysis indicated that cooking decreased the surface hydrophobicity of egg proteins. In conclusion, four traditional cooking methods reduced the allergenicity of egg proteins, particularly frying, and this reduction was associated with structural changes that could contribute to the destruction or masking of epitopes of egg allergens. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Egg allergy has a serious impact on public health, and there is no ideal treatment method at present. This study demonstrated that four traditional cooking methods (boiling, steaming, baking, and frying) reduced the allergenicity of egg proteins, especially frying, and the results will provide a basis for the development of hypoallergenic egg products.

Abstract
Ovomucoid is the immune-dominant allergen in the egg white of hens. Due to its structure based on nine disulfide bonds as well as its resistance to heat and enzymatic hydrolysis, the allergenicity of this food protein is difficult to decrease by technological processes. We sought to reduce its allergenicity through the Maillard reaction. The unfolding of ovomucoid with L-cysteine-mediated reduction was used to increase accessibility to conformational and linear epitopes by modifying the secondary and tertiary structures of the allergen. Glycation with different saccharides revealed the beneficial effect of maltose glycation on the IgG-binding capacity reduction. By determining the better glycation conditions of unfolded ovomucoid, we produced ovomucoid with reduced IgE binding capacity due to the glycation sites (K17, K112, K129, and K164) on epitopes. Moreover, after simulated infant and adult gastrointestinal digestion, the unfolded plus glycated ovomucoid showed higher ABTS˙+ scavenging activity, O2˙- scavenging activity, ˙OH scavenging activity, Fe2+ chelating activity, and a FRAP value; in particular, for ˙OH scavenging activity, there was a sharp increase of more than 100%.

Abstract
Hen's egg allergy is the second most frequent food allergy found in children. Allergic symptoms can be caused by raw or heated egg, but a majority of egg-allergic children can tolerate hard-boiled or baked egg. Understanding the reasons for the tolerance towards heated egg provides clues about the molecular mechanisms involved in egg allergy, and the differential allergenicity of heated and baked egg might be exploited to prevent or treat egg allergy. In this review, we therefore discuss (i) why some patients are able to tolerate heated egg; by highlighting the structural changes of egg white (EW) proteins upon heating and their impact on immunoreactivity, as well as patient characteristics, and (ii) to what extent heated or baked EW might be useful for primary prevention strategies or oral immunotherapy. We describe that the level of immunoreactivity towards EW helps to discriminate patients tolerant or reactive to heated or baked egg. Furthermore, the use of heated or baked egg seems effective in primary prevention strategies and might limit adverse reactions. Oral immunotherapy is a promising treatment strategy, but it can sometimes cause significant adverse events. The use of heated or baked egg might limit these, but current literature is insufficient to conclude about its efficacy.

Comparison of ovalbumin glycation induced by high-temperature steaming and high-temperature baking: A study combining conventional spectroscopy with high-resolution mass spectrometry. Food Res Int 2023; 173:113279. [PMID: 37803592 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113279] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Revised: 06/16/2023] [Accepted: 07/12/2023] [Indexed: 10/08/2023]
Abstract
High-temperature steaming (HTS) and high-temperature baking (HTB)-induced ovalbumin (OVA)-glucose glycation (140 °C, 1-3 min) were compared, and the different mechanisms were evaluated by changes in protein conformation, glycation sites and average degree of substitution per peptide molecule (DSP) values as well as the antioxidant activity of glycated OVA. Conventional spectroscopic results suggested that in comparison with HTB, HTS promoted protein expansion, increased β-sheet content and made OVA structure more orderly. Liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) analysis showed that 10 glycation sites were found under HTB, while 4 new glycation sites R111, R200, R219 and K323 appeared under HTS, and 2 of them (R219 and K323) were located in internal β-sheet chains. The antioxidant activities of glycated OVA increased with increasing treatment time, and HTS showed stronger enhancement effect than HTB. Furthermore, the DSP values were generally higher under HTS than HTB. Compared with HTB, HTS with high penetrability could enhance the change of OVA primary structure and spatial conformation, making the protein structure more unfolded and stable, leading to more protein-sugar collisions occurred in inner OVA molecular and significantly promoted glycation. In conclusion, HTS is a promising method for high-temperature short-time glycation reaction, with drastically increasing the protein antioxidant activities.

Abstract
Food allergens are a major concern for individuals who are susceptible to food allergies and may experience various health issues due to allergens in their food. Most allergenic foods are subjected to heat treatment before being consumed. However, thermal processing and prolonged storage can cause glycation reactions to occur in food. The glycation reaction is a common processing method requiring no special chemicals or equipment. It may affect the allergenicity of proteins by altering the structure of the epitope, revealing hidden epitopes, concealing linear epitopes, or creating new ones. Changes in food allergenicity following glycation processing depend on several factors, including the allergen's characteristics, processing parameters, and matrix, and are therefore hard to predict. This review examines how glycation reactions affect the allergenicity of different allergen groups in allergenic foods.

Abstract
Sesame allergy is a growing concern worldwide. In this study, sesame proteins was glycated with glucose, galactose, lactose and sucrose respectively, and the allergenicity of different glycated sesame proteins were assessed by a comprehensive strategy, including simulated gastrointestinal digestion in vitro, a BALB/c mice model, a rat basophilic leukemia (RBL)-2H3 cell degranulation model and a serological experiment. Firstly, simulated gastrointestinal digestion in vitro showed that glycated sesame proteins were more easily to digest than raw sesame. Subsequently, the allergenicity of sesame proteins was assessed in vivo by detecting the allergic indexes of mice, and results showed that the levels of total immunoglobulin E (IgE) and histamine were reduced in glycated sesame proteins treated mice. Meanwhile, the Th2 cytokines (IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13) were downregulated significantly, demonstrating that sesame allergy was relieved in glycated sesame treated mice. Thirdly, the RBL-2H3 cell degranulation model results showed that the release of β-hexosaminidase and histamine were decreased to different degrees in glycated sesame proteins treated groups. Notably, the monosaccharide glycated sesame proteins exhibited lower allergenicity both in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, the study also analyzed the structure alteration of sesame proteins, and the results showed that the secondary structure of glycated sesame proteins were changed (the content of α-helix and β-sheet were reduced), and the tertiary structure of sesame proteins after glycation modification was also changed (microenvironment around aromatic amino acids was altered). Besides, the surface hydrophobicity of glycated sesame proteins was also reduced except sucrose glycated sesame proteins. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that glycation reduced the allergenicity of sesame proteins effectively, especially glycation with monosaccharides, and the allergenicity reduction might be related to structural changes. The results will provide a new reference for developing hypoallergenic sesame products.

Abstract
As the main allergens in milk, whey proteins are heat-sensitive proteins and are widespread in dairy products and items in which milk proteins are involved as food additives. The present work sought to investigate the effect of heating sterilization on the allergenicity of α-lactalbumin (α-LA) and β-lactoglobulin (β-LG), the main composite and allergen in whey protein isolate (WPI), by combining molecular dynamics with experimental techniques for detecting the spatial structure and IgE binding capacity. The structure of WPI was basically destroyed at heat sterilization conditions of 95 °C for 5 min and 65 °C for 30 min by SDS-PAGE analysis and spectroscopic analysis. In addition, α-lactalbumin (α-LA) may be more sensitive to temperature, resulting in exposure to allergic epitopes and increasing the allergic potential, while the binding capacity of β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) to IgE was reduced under 65 °C for 30 min. By the radius of gyration (Rg) and root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) plots calculated in molecular dynamics simulations, α-LA was less structurally stable at 368 K, while β-LG remained stable at higher temperatures, indicating that α-LA was more thermally sensitive. In addition, we observed that the regions significantly affected by temperatures were associated with the capacity of allergic epitopes (α-LA 80-101 and β-LG 82-93, 105-121) to bind IgE through root-mean-standard fluctuation (RMSF) plots, which may influence the two major allergens. We inferred that these regions are susceptible to structural changes after sterilization, thus affecting the allergenicity of allergens.

Abstract
Ovalbumin (OVA) is one of major allergens of hen egg white with excellent nutritional and processing properties. Previous research exhibits that pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment could partially unfold OVA. This may contribute to the improvement of OVA phosphorylation. In this study, the effect of PEF pretreatment combined with phosphorylation on the structure and immunoglobulin (Ig) G/IgE-binding ability of OVA was investigated. The structural changes were measured by circular dichroism (CD), ultraviolet absorption, and fluorescence spectroscopy. The IgG- and IgE-binding abilities were determined by inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using rabbit polyclonal antibodies and egg-allergy patients’ sera, respectively. The results showed that PEF pretreatment combined with phosphorylation markedly reduced the IgG- and IgE-binding abilities. It was attributed to the changes in secondary and tertiary structure, which was reflected in the increase of ultraviolet (UV) absorbance, α-helix content, and the increase the molecular weight. Moreover, it suggested PEF pretreatment improved the phosphorylation of OVA and enhanced the reduction of IgG/IgE-binding capacity of phosphorylated OVA. Therefore, PEF pretreatment combined with phosphorylation has the potential for developing a method for OVA desensitization.

Abstract
Melibiose, cellobiose, maltose, lactose, turanose, and isomaltulose were selected to be glycated with OVA. The number of free amino groups of OVA modified with different disaccharides decreased, and the secondary and tertiary structures of the modified OVA also changed greatly. Moreover, the glycation sites detected by HPLC-HCD-MS/MS were all on the sensitized epitopes of OVA, which reduced the binding ability of IgG and IgE of glycated OVA. In addition, the glycation sites with the highest DSP in different samples were located in the irregular coil region of OVA. Among the six disaccharides, the glycation reaction between melibiose and OVA was the most obvious. Through the analysis of disaccharide configuration, it was found that the glycation efficiency of the reducing disaccharide linked by a 1 → 6 glycoside bond was higher than that by a 1 → 4 glycoside bond, and reducing sugar with β type was better than that with α type. These findings would provide a theoretical reference for the use of different sugars in food production.

Abstract
A detailed description of the changes that occur during the formation of protein corona represents a fundamental question in nanoscience, given that it not only impacts the behaviour of nanoparticles but also affects the bound proteins. Relevant questions include whether proteins selectively bind particles, whether a specific orientation is preferred for binding, and whether particle binding leads to a modulation of their 3D fold. For allergens, it is important to answer these questions given that all these effects can modify the allergenic response of atopic individuals. These potential impacts on the bound allergen are closely related to the specific properties of the involved nanoparticles. One important property influencing the formation of protein corona is the nanotopography of the particles. Herein, we studied the effect of nanoparticle porosity on allergen binding using mesoporous and non-porous SiO2 NPs. We investigated (i) the selectivity of allergen binding from a mixture such as crude pollen extract, (ii) whether allergen binding results in a preferred orientation, (iii) the influence of binding on the conformation of the allergen, and (iv) how the binding affects the allergenic response. Nanotopography was found to play a major role in the formation of protein corona, impacting the physicochemical and biological properties of the NP-bound allergen. The porosity of the surface of the SiO2 nanoparticles resulted in a higher binding capacity with pronounced selectivity for (preferentially) binding the major birch pollen allergen Bet v 1. Furthermore, the binding of Bet v 1 to the mesoporous rather than the non-porous SiO2 nanoparticles influenced the 3D fold of the protein, resulting in at least partial unfolding. Consequently, this conformational change influenced the allergenic response, as observed by mediator release assays employing the sera of patients and immune effector cells. For an in-depth understanding of the bio-nano interactions, the properties of the particles need to be considered not only regarding the identity and morphology of the material, but also their nanotopography, given that porosity may greatly influence the structure, and hence the biological behaviour of the bound proteins. Thus, thorough structural investigations upon the formation of protein corona are important when considering immunological outcomes, as particle binding can influence the allergenic response elicited by the bound allergen.

Limited Lactosylation of Beta-Lactoglobulin from Cow's Milk Exerts Strong Influence on Antigenicity and Degranulation of Mast Cells. Nutrients 2021; 13:nu13062041. [PMID: 34203636 PMCID: PMC8232271 DOI: 10.3390/nu13062041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2021] [Revised: 06/02/2021] [Accepted: 06/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) is one of the major cow’s milk proteins and the most abundant allergen in whey. Heating is a common technologic treatment applied during milk transformational processes. Maillardation of BLG in the presence of reducing sugars and elevated temperatures may influence its antigenicity and allergenicity. Primary objective: to analyze and identify lactosylation sites by capillary electrophoresis mass spectrometry (CE-MS). Secondary objective: to assess the effect of lactosylated BLG on antigenicity and degranulation of mast cells. Methods: BLG was lactosylated at pH 7, a water activity (aw) of 0.43, and a temperature of 65 °C using a molar ratio BLG:lactose of 1:1 by incubating for 0, 3, 8, 16 or 24 h. For the determination of the effect on antibody-binding capacity of lactosylated BLG, an ELISA was performed. For the assessment of degranulation of the cell-line RBL-hεIa-2B12 transfected with the human α-chain, Fcε receptor type 1 (FcεRI) was used. Results: BLG showed saturated lactosylation between 8 and 16 incubation hours in our experimental setup. Initial stage lactosylation sites L1 (N-terminus)—K47, K60, K75, K77, K91, K138 and K141—have been identified using CE-MS. Lactosylated BLG showed a significant reduction of both the IgG binding (p = 0.0001) as well as degranulation of anti-BLG IgE-sensitized RBL-hεIa-2B12 cells (p < 0.0001). Conclusions and clinical relevance: this study shows that lactosylation of BLG decreases both the antigenicity and degranulation of mast cells and can therefore be a promising approach for reducing allergenicity of cow’s milk allergens provided that the process is well-controlled.

Abstract
Hen egg is a worldwide top-consumed food that has attracted public health concerns because it can induce allergic reactions in sensitized individuals. Food allergy investigations need highly purified egg allergens. However, a limited number of purification methods have been described for the combined separation of more than two egg allergens and only few of them have evaluated the immunological activity of these purified proteins. The aim of this work was to develop a chromatographic method for the separation of the four major egg allergens (ovomucoid, ovalbumin, ovotranferrin, and lysozyme) with a demonstrated immunological activity. After a pre-processing step for ovomucin precipitation and pH adjustment, remaining egg white proteins were loaded onto CM-Sepharose column and major egg allergens were separated using cation-exchange chromatography. Yield of ovomucoid, ovalbumin, ovotranferrin, and lysozyme was 60.0%, 52.1%, 29.6%, and 90.2%, respectively. Purified allergens were compared with their commercial standards, showing a high purity as well as a maintained antigenicity. The protocol described in this work is simple, quick, low-cost, and suitable for the study of the immunological properties of these allergens. For higher ovalbumin demand in the lab, 2.1 g ovalbumin can be produced in a single process with high purity.

Abstract
Ovalbumin (OVA) is one of the major food allergens in hen eggs. In this work, it was demonstrated that glycation with d-glucose and its epimers, including d-mannose, d-allose, d-galactose, and l-idose, could effectively attenuate the IgG/IgE binding of OVA, which was attributed to the covalent masking by sugars and to its structural changes. The glycation sites were determined, and their average degree of substitution was found using liquid chromatography coupled with high-resolution mass spectrometry. Fluctuations in OVA conformation were monitored by conventional spectrometry. Compared to those of OVA-Man and OVA-Glu, OVA-All, OVA-Gal, and OVA-Ido showed a higher glycation extent, and the alterations on their steric layouts were more drastic, suggesting that the configuration of hydroxyl groups at positions C-3, C-4, and C-5 in sugars might be important for the glycation reactivity; as such, their capabilities in binding with IgG/IgE decreased more significantly. Attempts were made to provide valuable information for in-depth understanding of the differences in biochemical functionality among epimeric sugars. These insights would be helpful for designing sweetened food products with a desirable level of safety.

Abstract
Glycation between ovalbumin (OVA) and different monoses under mild dry heating at 37 °C was studied. The content of free amino groups decreased dramatically, and the conformational changes based on fluorescence and circular dichroism spectra were evident in glycated OVA. The glycated sites and the average degree of substitution per peptide molecule per site were determined using liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry. Lysine and arginine were the predominant glyaction sites, in which Lys207 was a relatively reactive site for glycation in all of the conjugates. In general, the extent of glycation of aldose was higher, and its alterations on the steric layouts of protein were more drastic than those of ketose. The configuration of hydroxyl groups at C-4 in sugar epimers might be important for the glycation reactivity and conformational modification in the glycated proteins. These insights would have important implications for the creation of sweetened food products with desirable structures and excellent quality control.

Abstract
Ovalbumin is one of the most important sensitizing ingredients in allergens of egg albumin, which restricts the application of egg in the field of food processing. Previous research has indicated that glycation could cause the protein to partially expand, which may bring about the destruction of the structural IgG and IgE epitopes and induce the decline of the IgG- and IgE-binding ability of ovalbumin. In this research, the effect of a preheating treatment integrated with glycation on the IgG- and IgE-binding capability and the conformation changes of ovalbumin was studied by detecting the glycated sites and the values of degree of substitution per peptide (DSP) by liquid chromatography and high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS). Interestingly, we found that a glycation site (K227) attached by two ribose molecules was detected in glycated ovalbumin with preheating treatment. In addition, a new glycation site (K323) appeared in G-60. The results displayed that preheating treament could strengthen the changes in the secondary and tertiary structure of ovalbumin by enhancing glycation and further reduce the IgG/IgE-binding ability by integrating with glycation because of the cover of IgG and IgE epitopes. Therefore, preheating treatment integrated with glycation may offer a way for ovalbumin to reduce sensitization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ovalbumin (OVA), a protein with excellent nutritional and processing properties, is the major allergen of hen egg white. High-intensity ultrasound treatment increases the immunoglobulin (Ig)G and IgE binding abilities by unfolding the conformational structure of OVA. This may allow a modification of the IgG and IgE binding of OVA by combining high-intensity ultrasound with other methods, such as glycation, thus representing a promising method for the improvement of protein properties. RESULTS Glycation with mannose (M) after ultrasound pretreatment at 0-600 W significantly reduced the IgG and IgE binding abilities and dramatically enhanced the antioxidant activity of OVA-M conjugates, with the lowest values of IgG and IgE binding and highest values of antioxidant capacity observed at 600 W. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that the molecular weight of OVA-M conjugates with ultrasound pretreatment increased more than non-pretreatment sample, implying that ultrasound pretreatment promoted glycation. The α-helix content and ultraviolet absorption of OVA were observably increased, whereas β-sheet content, intrinsic fluorescence and surface hydrophobicity were notably decreased, indicating that the tertiary and secondary structures of OVA were markedly changed. CONCLUSION High-intensity ultrasound pretreatment can be conducive to reducing the binding abilities of IgG and IgE and enhancing the antioxidant activity of OVA-M conjugates. Therefore, glycation combined with high-intensity ultrasound pretreatment might be a promising method for producing hypo-allergenic and high-antioxidant OVA products. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Bovine β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) is a major allergen existing in milk and causes about 90% of IgE-mediated cow's milk allergies. Previous studies showed that pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment could partially unfold the protein, which may contribute to the improvement of protein glycation. In this study, the effect of PEF pretreatment combined with glycation on the IgG/IgE-binding ability and the structure of β-Lg was investigated. The result showed that PEF pretreatment combined with glycation significantly reduced the IgG and IgE binding abilities, which was attributed to the changes of secondary and tertiary structure and the increase in glycation sites and degree of substitution per peptide (DSP) value determined by electron capture dissociation Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (ECD/FTICR-MS). Unexpectedly, glycation sites (K47, K91 and K135) added by two mannose molecules were identified in glycated β-Lg with PEF pretreatment. Moreover, the results indicated that PEF pretreatment at 25 kV cm-1 for 60 μs promoted the reduction of IgG/IgE-binding capacity by increasing the glycation degree of β-Lg, whereas single PEF treatment under the same conditions markedly enhanced the IgG/IgE-binding ability by partially unfolding the structure of β-Lg. The results suggested that ECD/FTICR-MS could help us to understand the mechanism of reduction in the IgG/IgE-binding of β-Lg by structural characterization at the molecular level. Therefore, PEF pretreatment combined with glycation may provide an alternative method for β-Lg desensitization.

Abstract
As a naturally occurring reaction during food processing, glycation, also known as non-enzymatic browning or Maillard reaction, can improve food protein physiochemical properties and functionality. In this perspective, three aspects of glycation (terminology confusion between glycation and glycosylation, its current application, and its impact on immunoreactivity) are elaborated. Overall, the immunoreactivity of glycated proteins may decrease, remain unchanged, or even increase after food glycation. Also, it should be noted that the effect of glycation on the immunoglobulin (Ig)E- or IgG-binding capacity of allergens does not necessarily and correctly predict the allergenicity of the glycated protein in the allergic patient population.

Abstract
Bovine β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) is one of major allergens in cow's milk. Previous study showed that ultrasound treatment induced the conformational changes of β-Lg and promoted the glycation in aqueous solutions, which is, however, less efficient compared with dry-state. In this work, the effect of ultrasound pretreatment combined with dry-state glycation on the IgG and IgE binding of β-Lg was studied. Dry-state glycation with mannose after ultrasound pretreatment at 0-600 W significantly reduced the IgG and IgE binding of β-Lg, with the lowest values observed at 400 W. The decrease in the IgG and IgE binding of β-Lg was attributed to the increase in glycation extent and the changes of secondary and tertiary structure, which reflected in the increase of UV absorbance, α-helix and β-sheet contents, as well as the decrease of intrinsic fluorescence intensity, surface hydrophobicity, β-turn, and random coil contents. Moreover, ultrasound pretreatment promoted the reduction of IgG and IgE binding abilities by improving glycation, reflecting in the increase of the glycation sites and the degree of substitution per peptide (DSP) value determined by Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS). Ultrasound pretreatment at 400 W showed the most significantly enhanced glycation extent. Besides, the results suggested FTICR-MS could provide insights into the glycation at molecular level, which was conducive to the understanding of the mechanism of the reduction in the IgG and IgE binding of β-Lg. Therefore, ultrasound pretreatment combined with dry-state glycation may be a promising method for β-Lg hyposensitization.

Food processing and allergenicity. Food Chem Toxicol 2015; 80:223-240.

Abstract
Food processing can have many beneficial effects. However, processing may also alter the allergenic properties of food proteins. A wide variety of processing methods is available and their use depends largely on the food to be processed. In this review the impact of processing (heat and non-heat treatment) on the allergenic potential of proteins, and on the antigenic (IgG-binding) and allergenic (IgE-binding) properties of proteins has been considered. A variety of allergenic foods (peanuts, tree nuts, cows' milk, hens' eggs, soy, wheat and mustard) have been reviewed. The overall conclusion drawn is that processing does not completely abolish the allergenic potential of allergens. Currently, only fermentation and hydrolysis may have potential to reduce allergenicity to such an extent that symptoms will not be elicited, while other methods might be promising but need more data. Literature on the effect of processing on allergenic potential and the ability to induce sensitisation is scarce. This is an important issue since processing may impact on the ability of proteins to cause the acquisition of allergic sensitisation, and the subject should be a focus of future research. Also, there remains a need to develop robust and integrated methods for the risk assessment of food allergenicity.

Abstract
The Maillardation of proteins has been used as a natural alternative to improve its functionality by covalent coupling of proteins with saccharides. However, the impact of Maillard reaction on the structural aspects of protein networks and, as a consequence, the mechanical breakdown properties of the gel networks has not been reported. The objective of this study was to evaluate how the attachment of linear oligo-sugar moieties onto ovalbumin affects its aggregation, network morphology, and consequently the mechanical deformation properties including the ability of the networks to elastically store energy in this material. To potentially alter the morphology of the network structure, ovalbumin was modified by conjugating some of its amino groups with fructooligosaccharide (FOS) moieties via the Maillard reaction. It was demonstrated that the attachment of FOS to ovalbumin does not affect the integrity of the secondary and tertiary structure as characterized using circular dichroism and tryptophan fluorescence. Differences in the network morphology were observed by scanning electron microscopy for FOS-modified ovalbumin variants. Upon increased modification, the microstructure of the gels had more and larger pores and had thinner strands than nonmodified variants. Evaluation of the large deformation properties of the gels demonstrated that FOS-modified gels were less strong and less brittle and showed lower stiffness than nonmodified variants. The recoverable energy (elastically stored energy) of gels reduced with an increase in the degree of modification. The results show that the attachment of FOS to ovalbumin alters the structural and mechanical (large) breakdown properties of the protein gels. The consequences of the alteration of the network structure and large deformation properties of FOS-modified ovalbumin offer opportunities to efficiently design food materials with desirable techno-functional applications.

Abstract
Ovalbumin (OA) is one of the most abundant of the glycoprotein allergens, and induces a T-helper type 2 immune response that results in an IgE-mediated hypersensitivity. In this study, the terminal carbohydrates of N-glycans from intact OA were cleaved with the exoglycosidases galactosidase, mannosidase, and N-acetylglucosaminidase to generate degalactosylated-OA, demannosylated-OA, and de-N-acetylglucosaminylated-OA, respectively, in order to evaluate their role in allergenicity. The exoglycosidase digestion procedure did not result in either degradation or contamination of the three deglycosylated sample, and the digestion efficiency was confirmed by comparing the results of glycan analysis of the three exoglycosidase-treated OAs with that of glycans of intact OA. Mice were immunized with either intact or exoglycosidase-treated OAs, and their respective allergic reactions were compared. IgE production in the de-N-acetylglucosaminylated-OA group was reduced to 58.8% of that in the intact OA group. In addition, the production levels of the cytokines interleukin-4 and interleukin-5 were significantly reduced in the de-N-acetylglucosaminylated-OA group to 53.4% and 45.8% of the levels in the intact OA group, respectively. However, there were almost no changes (or only slight reductions) in the degalactosylated-OA and demannosylated-OA groups, respectively. These results indicate that cleavage of the terminal carbohydrate, and particularly N-acetylglucosamine, reduces the allergenicity of OA. This is the first report of the effect of cleavage of the terminal carbohydrate on glycoprotein allergenicity.

Abstract
The effect of glycation of potato proteins on their immunoreactivity was studied by using a pool of human sera with specific IgE to potato proteins. Patatin conjugates were more immunoreactive than protease inhibitors ones. To better understand this behavior, the changes in patatin structure upon glycation and heat treatment were investigated. Patatin demonstrated an increase in total immunoreactivity when glycated with galactose and galactooligosaccharides. However, galactan conjugation to patatin resulted in a decrease in immunoreactivity by restricting IgE's access to the epitopes. Although the heat treatment resulted in a decrease in patatin's immunoreactivity through aggregation, it was less effective when patatin conjugates were used due to the decrease in aggregation and the secondary structural changes. Upon digestion, native patatin exhibited the largest decrease in immunoreactivity resulting from the disruption of both conformational and sequential epitopes. Patatin conjugates were less digested and had higher IgE-immunoreactivity as compared to the digested patatin.
