Four novel antifungal compounds, gamahonolides A and B, gamahorin, and 5-hydroxyl-4-phenyl-2(5H)-furanone, were isolated from stromata of Epichloe typhina on Phleum pratense. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods. The absolute configuration of gamahonolide A was determined by its
BACKGROUND
Grass pollen, such as that from timothy grass (Phleum pratense), represents a major cause of type I allergy.
OBJECTIVE
To characterize the IgE immune response and to identify the major allergens eliciting an IgE response in a mouse model using pollen extract of P. pratense for
BACKGROUND
Despite the difference in geographical dominance of certain grasses, a high degree of allergenic similarity or cross-reactivity between Bermuda grass pollen (BGP) and timothy grass pollen (TGP) has been previously demonstrated. The aim of the present study was to ascertain the
Grass pollen allergy is one of the most important allergic diseases world-wide. Several meadow grasses, like timothy grass and rye grass, contribute to allergic sensitizations, but also allergens from extensively cultivated cereals, especially rye, make a profound contribution. The group 4 allergens
We isolated a cDNA encoding a major grass pollen allergen from a timothy grass (Phleum pratense) pollen expression cDNA library using allergic patients' IgE. The complete cDNA encoded an allergen that binds IgE from about 80% of grass pollen-allergic patients. Significant sequence homology was found
BACKGROUND
More than 70% of the patients allergic to grass pollen exhibit IgE-reactivity against the high molecular mass fraction between 50 and 60 kDa of timothy grass pollen extracts. One allergen from this fraction is Phl p 4 that has been described as a basic glycoprotein. A new 55/60 kDa
BACKGROUND
The physicochemical modification of allergen extracts provides a chance for administering higher doses of allergen vaccines.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the safety of a chemically modified (depigmented-glutaraldehyde polymerized) therapeutic vaccine of Phleum pratense administered at doses that
