The July-August issue of AllergyWatch is packed with useful articles. In this issue, you’ll find:
- A summary of a study from the journal Science that introduces the concept of the “mechano-inflammatory cycle,” where epithelial cell extrusion induced by bronchoconstriction exacerbates airway inflammation.
- Another article of interest is from the journal Allergy that reports healthy blood donors who consume allergenic foods 4 hours prior can induce basophil activation in children with food allergy.
- There is also an article describing the potential link between ultraprocessed foods, containing advanced glycation end products (AGEs) increasing the risk of food allergy in children.
- Of the 24 articles reviewed in this AllergyWatch issue, 12 focus on asthma.
