FA-AIT, including oral (OIT), sublingual (SLIT), and epicutaneous (EPIT) immunotherapy, has shown efficacy in desensitizing patients and achieving sustained unresponsiveness (SU). However, the long-term effectiveness and safety of FA-AIT are still under investigation. Probiotics, particularly strains of Lactobacillus, play a crucial role in enhancing immune tolerance by promoting regulatory T cells (Tregs) and modulating cytokine profiles. These probiotics can induce semi-mature dendritic cells, enhance CD40 expression, inhibit IL-4 and IL-5, and promote IL-10 and TGF-β, thus contributing to mucosal defense and immunological tolerance. Clinical trials combining probiotics with FA-AIT have demonstrated improved desensitization rates and immune tolerance in food-allergic patients. For example, the combination of Lactobacillus rhamnosus with peanut OIT resulted in a significantly higher rate of SU compared to the placebo group, along with notable immune changes such as reduced peanut-specific IgE and increased IgG4 levels. The review also explores other adjuvants in FA-AIT, such as biologic drugs, which target specific immune pathways to improve treatment outcomes. Additionally, nanoparticles and herbal therapies like food allergy herbal formula 2 (FAHF-2) are discussed for their potential to enhance allergen delivery and immunogenicity, reduce adverse events, and improve desensitization. In conclusion, integrating probiotics and other adjuvants into FA-AIT protocols could significantly enhance the safety and efficacy of FA-AIT, leading to better patient outcomes and quality of life.</p>","PeriodicalId":73062,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in allergy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11499231/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142514117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, in both cohorts were individuals (HDs: 35/49, AEA: 40/58) who responded to calcitriol with a more pronounced regulatory response. The calcitriol-induced regulatory effect manifested by a stronger surface decrease of CD46 on activated CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells (by 40% in HDs and by 26% in AEA), accompanied by a significant inhibition of IFN-γ and increased IL-10 production (by 31% in HDs and by 85% in AEA). These individuals were termed as the CD46D group. Contrary to this, calcitriol induced an increase in CD46 expression at the CD4<sup>+</sup> T cell surface in a minor group of HDs (14/49), and AEA patients (18/58), who were termed as the CD46I group. In CD46I group, CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells produced less IFN-γ in comparison with CD46D group (by 33% in HDs and by 43% in AEA) and were unable to upregulate IL-10 production following stimulation with αCD3/αCD46/IL-2/Calcitriol.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Our results suggest the potential existence of a key for stratifying individuals suitable for calcitriol treatment in the context of low serum vitamin D levels. After validation in clinical studies, this key could be used as an adjunctive therapy not only for patients with allergic eosinophilic asthma, but also for other diseases.</p>","PeriodicalId":73062,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in allergy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11472004/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142482316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In difficult to control and refractory cases of EIA, biologics such as omalizumab and dupilumab have shown promise, with documented successful outcomes. Here, we present a case of EIA with lipid transfer protein (LTP) sensitization successfully treated with omalizumab with long-term follow-up. A 12-year-old girl presented to our allergy department because of recurrent episodes of EIA, with no specific food ingestion before exercise. Allergen testing revealed sensitization to weed pollens, particularly mugwort (76.1 kUA/L) and <i>Alternaria alternata</i> (10.8 kUA/L). Allergen component testing indicated sensitization to LTP components from mugwort Art v 3 (49.9 kUA/L), wheat Tri a 14 (2.03 kUA/L), and peach Pru p 3 (11.5 kUA/L), with a negative result for omega-5 gliadin. Despite initial prophylactic treatment with budesonide-formoterol (80/4.5 μg) and cetirizine (10 mg) before exercise, the patient still experienced EIA; she was then recommended for dupilumab therapy (an initial dose of 600 mg, followed by 300 mg every 2 weeks for six doses). However, even while undergoing dupilumab therapy, she suffered two anaphylactic episodes after running 800-1,000 m. With the patient's consent, a trial of omalizumab was initiated (injections of 300 mg every 4 weeks). After 2 months of omalizumab therapy, the patient showed significant improvement. She had been engaging in physical exercise three times a week and experienced a mild episode of urticaria. There were no further episodes of anaphylaxis or emergency room visits. By the fourth month of omalizumab treatment, she was able to consume food normally even just before exercising and had returned to her full activity level without any restrictions. This case presents the first successful off-label use of omalizumab in the prevention of EIA in the Chinese population. It is concluded that omalizumab may be helpful in resolving EIA symptoms, as evidenced by this case of successful long-term use.</p>","PeriodicalId":73062,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in allergy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11446895/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142373696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
