There has been a way to remove all types of food allergies

Recently, scientists have developed a new immunotherapy that can reverse allergic reactions in mice and they believe that this therapy can be used to treat allergies in humans.

This treatment is based on activating the production of new tassel cells (dendritic cells or DC cells) - cells that are responsible for signaling immune cells to eliminate the immune response. Since then it will help prevent hypersensitivity reactions - one of the most rapid and threatening types of allergic reactions.

"If we can eliminate food allergies , or related conditions like asthma or autoimmune disease like multiple sclerosis with this new therapy, the lives of affected patients will be replaced. "The researcher is a researcher at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada."

Tassel cells occur naturally in tissues exposed to the environment, such as the outer layer of the skin, the lining of the nose, lungs, stomach and intestines.

Gordon and the team extracted a number of mouse rewind cells, then exposed them to a blend of protein, vitamin A acid in the human intestine and an allergen, wallet. eg peanuts or egg whites.

The team then inverted these rewind cells into mice and found that their allergic reactions were nearly eliminated. At this time, allergy-sensitive immune cells have reacted normally as in healthy people, without allergies.

Currently, this therapy has only been tested in mice, scientists hope to be able to conduct human trials next year.

"We have many people who are allergic to volunteering for cells to use lab tests to bring this study further," Gordon said.

Effective allergy treatments can change the lives of millions of people.

Effective allergy treatments can change the lives of millions of people. In the United States alone, food allergy estimates affect 15 million people. One out of 13 children here will have a food allergy.

The research team believes that studies can also be applied to other immune-related diseases, such as multiple sclerosis."Just a little more effort can be applied to treat autoimmune diseases , " Gordon said.

This study was published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology.
