BACKGROUND
Two major allergens (Mer a 1A and Mer a 1B), tentatively identified as profilin, have been described in the euphorbiacea, Mercurialis annua.
OBJECTIVE
We sought to clone and characterize these major allergens from M. annua pollen and to obtain the immunologically active and soluble
Allergen cross-reactions among three strongly sensitizing Euphorbiaceae species, i.e., the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis), castor bean (Ricinus communis), and the Mediterranean weed Mercurialis annua were studied in Finnish patients (n = 25) allergic to natural rubber latex (NRL), but with no
The case of a non-atopic subject developing occupational sensitization and allergic rhinitis to Mercurialis annua pollen after intense exposure is described. The subject was involved in a clinical study by handling flowering plants daily. Preventive measures should be taken even in non-atopic
