Peanut Allergy: Changes in Dogma and Past, Present, and Future Directions

Pediatric Annals
Sarah Boudreau-Romano, Nashmia Qamar

Abstract

The prevalence of food allergy in the pediatric population, specifically to peanuts, has been rising. Accidental exposure to peanuts in a person who is allergic may have life-threatening consequences. Previous recommendations regarding peanut allergy included a delay in introduction of peanut to infants. However, more recent studies have provided sufficient contrary evidence supporting early introduction of peanuts for prevention of peanut allergy. Therefore, prompt evaluation by a specialist should be considered in infants at high risk of developing peanut allergy. Current treatment is strict avoidance of the allergen; however, future therapies are being sought, including oral immunotherapy, sublingual immunotherapy, and epicutaneous immunotherapy.

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.
