Abstract

The present study aims to investigate the structure of covalent conjugates of bovine β-lactoglobulin (BLG) and flavonoids (luteolin, myricetin, and hyperoside), and their effect on the allergenicity and human intestinal microbiota. Covalent modification of amino acids in BLG by flavonoids was confirmed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and o-phthaldialdehyde assay. The secondary and conformational structures of BLG were changed by the covalent modification, which were determined by the circular dichroism, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, and UV spectroscopy. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and cell experiments indicated that BLG covalent conjugates could reduce IgE/IgG binding capacities and suppress the allergy reactivity of RBL-2H3 cells, suggesting that the covalent modification modulated the balance of T cells. Meanwhile, covalent modification of BLG with these flavonoids can alter the diversity of human intestinal microbiota and the community abundance at phylum, family, and genus levels. The results revealed that covalent modification of BLG with flavonoids alters human intestinal microbiota, might result in the reduction of allergenici...Continue Reading

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.
