- Eosinophilic Esophagitis: Latent Disease in Patients with Anaphylactic Reaction to Cow's Milk(2018) BARBOSA, Adriana C.; CASTRO, Fabio Morato; MEIRELES, Paula Rezende; ARRUDA, L. Karla; CARDOSO, Silvia Regina; KALIL, Jorge; YANG, Ariana C.BACKGROUND: Food allergy and eosinophilic esophagitis are a substantial and evolving public health issue. Clinicians should know the relationship between these diseases and how one may predispose to the other. This can help minimize misdiagnosis. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to assess esophageal eosinophilia and eosinophilic esophagitis frequency in patients with persistent cow's milk allergy and anaphylaxis manifestations. METHODS: Patients with persistent cow's milk allergy with anaphylaxis manifestations were enrolled from 2012 through 2016 at the Sao Paulo University Hospital, Brazil. All of them were submitted to endoscopy despite the presence or absence of gastrointestinal symptoms. Demographics data, atopic comorbidities, medication use, endoscopic findings, and esophageal eosinophilia frequency were evaluated. RESULTS: Eighty-nine patients were selected. The median age was 8 years. It was observed that 34 of 89 patients (38.2%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 28.14%-49.16%) presented with esophageal eosinophilia. Five patients (7.1%) presented proton pump inhibitor-responsive esophageal eosinophilia, and 10 patients (14.2%) presented eosinophilic esophagitis. We found that 29.4% were asymptomatic patients, 23.5% had nonspecific symptoms, 23.5% had persistent typical symptoms, and 23.5% had intermittent typical symptoms. There was an association with inflammatory endoscopy findings in 21 patients (61.7%). CONCLUSIONS: This description demands scientific attention because it is the highest frequency of esophageal eosinophilia yet described in a group of patients with cow's milk allergy presenting with anaphylaxis. Eosinophilic esophagitis is a condition that can coexist ""silently"" with an IgE-mediated food allergy and is most often underestimated and under-diagnosed.

- Novel allergens from ancient foods: Man e 5 from manioc (Manihot esculenta Crantz) cross reacts with Hev b 5 from latex(2013) SANTOS, Keity Souza; GADERMAIER, Gabriele; VEJVAR, Eva; ARCURI, Helen Andrade; GALVAO, Clovis Eduardo; YANG, Ariana Campos; RESENDE, Virginia Maria Ferreira; MARTINS, Carlo de Oliveira; HIMLY, Martin; MARI, Adriano; LISO, Marina; POMPONI, Debora; BREITENEDER, Heimo; WAGNER, Stefan; KALIL, Jorge; FERREIRA, Fatima; CASTRO, Fabio Fernandes MoratoScope Manioc (Manihot esculenta) is a tuber mainly consumed in the Southern Hemisphere and used worldwide by food and chemistry industry. We aimed to recombinantly produce and characterize the first manioc allergen and evaluate its IgE reactivity in sera of Brazilian and Italian patients. Methods and results The molecule, termed Man e5, was expressed in E. coli, characterized by amino acid analysis, mass spectrometry, circular dichroism, HPLC, and dynamic light scattering. A tertiary structural model of the protein was produced using bioinformatics and susceptibility to pepsin digestion was analyzed in vitro. Based on its high content of charged residues, heat stability, flexibility and lack of secondary structure elements, the allergen was determined a member of the intrinsically disordered protein family. Brazilian patients were selected based on manioc allergy and Italians based on latex allergy and sensitization to Hev b 5.71% of Brazilians and 40% of Italians were in vitro IgE positive to Man e5. Cross-inhibition assays suggest a possible involvement of this allergen in the latex-fruit syndrome. Conclusion Man e5, the first purified allergen from manioc demonstrates IgE cross-reactivity with Hev b 5. Data suggest Hev b 5 might act as primary sensitizer and could therefore lead to allergic manifestations upon manioc consumption without prior exposition.

- Underlying IPEX syndrome in a patient with idiopathic juvenile arthritis and vitiligo(2022) MENDONCA, Leonardo Oliveira; CHUSTER, Adriana Pitchon dos Reis; DORNA, Mayra Barros; BARROS, Samar Freschi; ALVES, Janaina Baptista; GONCALVES, Victor Lucas; YANG, Ariana Campos; KALIL, Jorge; TOLEDO-BARROS, Myrthes Anna Maragna; KOKRON, Cristina MariaBackground: IPEX syndrome is an X-linked inborn error of immunity clinically characterized by the triad of: enteropathy, polyendocrinopathy and eczema. However many other clinical presentations lacking the triad above described have been reported what underpin the need of careful clinical suspicion, immunological evaluation and genetic sequencing. Case presentation: Here we report a case of a Brazilian boy with severe eczema as the first and only presentation requiring cyclosporin therapy. Progressive and cumulative symptoms of arthritis and enteropathy lead to the suspicion of an inborn error of immunity. Peripheral FOXP3 expression was normal (CD127-/CD4+/CD25+/FOXP3+-396 cells-63%) and a pathogenic mutation in FOXP3 gene (c.1150G > A; p.Ala384Thr), confirmed the diagnosis of IPEX syndrome. Conclusions: IPEX syndrome should be suspected in patients presenting with severe eczema associated or not with other autoimmune/hyper inflammatory diseases in life. Our study also reinforces that FOXP3 expression by flowcytometry seems not to be a good screening method, and genetic sequencing is mandatory even in those with high suspicion and normal peripheral FOXP3 expression.

M.; BARROS, Myrthes Toledo; YANG, Ariana Campos; GRECCO, Octavio; KALIL, Jorge- Fructose biphosphate aldolase: A new cassava allergen(2023) VENTURA, Anne K. R. M.; ALVES, Safiri de P.; CASTRO, Roberta A.; ROSSINI, Bruno C.; DELAZARI, Lucilense S.; OLIVEIRA, Amanda M. de; MORETTI, Ana I. S.; CASTRO, Fabio F. M.; KALIL, Jorge; YANG, Ariana C.; SANTOS, Keity S.Background: Food allergy has considerably increased in recent years and this situation has been aggravated mainly by the consumption of more processed and complex foods, since minor or potentially allergenic foods are not required to be labeled. Manihot esculenta (cassava) is a widely consumed food in South America, Africa, and Asia and can be used in the production of flour and starch, as well as several other products. This root can cause allergic reactions with symptoms ranging from mild to severe. Methods: Thus, the aim of this study was the characterization of the immunogenic cassava proteins responsible for sensitizing patients allergic to it. Using a 2D-SDS-PAGE based proteomic approach, six proteins were identified, including Fructose Bisphosphate Aldolase (FBA). Recom-binant FBA was produced in Expi293 cells and evaluated by immunoblotting with the serum of 10 individual study subjects. Results: Our results showed six cassava IgE-reactive proteins. From those, recombinant fructose bisphosphate aldolase (FBA) showed a positivity of 80% among tested sera, proving to be a highly sensitizing protein. Conclusion: The recombinant FBA molecule obtained in this study can be important for in vivo diagnostic assays, by producing more accurate results, and for desensitization protocols, in which the use of the isolated molecule produces more precise results by avoiding secondary sensitization.
