Among the many molecules present in our environment, some have the property to induce allergic sensitization and IgE-mediated reactions. The analysis of known major animal allergens has shown that most belong to single protein families: lipocalins and serum albumins for inhalant allergens, EF-hand proteins, tropomyosins and caseins for the digestive allergens. The finding that allergens are often clustered in large families may be related to the fact that common structural, biochemical or functional features contribute to their allergenicity, in addition to external adjuvant factors. Currently, there is no curative treatment for animal allergy available. In order to lower allergic reactions to respiratory allergens in daily life and to food allergens upon accidental exposure, it is important to desensitize concerned patients. Tolerance induction by allergen-specific immunotherapy is in the current focus of an ambitious research. This Research Topic aims to provide a comprehensive view of the basic and recent insights on the allergenicity of animal allergens in view of their structural and functional aspects as well as allergen-specific immunotherapy.

The purpose of this Special Issue “Cow’s Milk and Allergy” is to provide an overview of the association of cow’s milk with allergy. This topic has two quite different faces. On the one hand, we are all aware of the importance of cow’s milk allergy in early life. What is less known is that the consumption of raw, unprocessed milk is associated with a lower incidence of asthma and rhinitis. This Special Issue takes a closer look at all of these aspects of cow’s milk and allergy and focus on the following questions:
animal models --- milk allergen --- allergenicity --- camel milk --- immune regulation --- epigenetics --- human breast milk --- milk processing --- CAP-FEIA (Fluorescence Enzyme Immunoassay) --- immune system --- raw milk --- multiplex dot test --- Middle-East --- alkaline phosphatase --- cow’s milk allergy --- polygenic risk score --- tolerance --- hydrolysate --- CML --- infant formula --- miRNA-150 --- milk --- allergy --- casein --- asthma --- partial hydrolysate --- Immunoglubuline E --- molecular diagnosis --- allergic march --- delayed-type hypersensitivity --- allergenicity modulation --- prebiotics --- processing --- sRAGE --- histone acetylation --- dietary intervention --- probiotics --- cow’s milk --- Cow’s milk allergy (CMA) --- cow’s milk protein allergy --- farming effect --- protection --- anaphylaxis --- aggregation --- IgE binding --- natural history --- epidemiology --- prevalence --- infant allergy --- basophil activation test (BAT) --- ?-lactoglobulin --- step-down --- sensitization pattern --- extracellular vesicles --- cell-mediated reactions --- proteomics --- prevention of cow’s milk allergy --- therapy --- raw cow’s milk --- baked milk --- immune cells --- food allergy --- gut microbiota --- allergic diseases --- glycation --- bioactive peptides --- infant feeding --- cow’s milk allergens --- treatment of cow’s milk allergy --- formula --- genome-wide association --- diagnosis of cow’s milk allergy

This book describes the causes, diagnosis, and effects of food allergy. It goes deeper into the molecular and cellular mechanisms of food allergy and, in particular, into effects of the processing of certain nutrients, e.g., cow’s milk on the allergenicity of proteins. The book also focuses on new nutrients, e.g., seaweed, and possible effects on allergy and inflammation.

Legume crops provide a significant sources of plant-based proteins for humans. Grain legumes present outstanding nutritional and nutraceutical properties as sources of bioactive components with benefits in human health, while they are affordable food that contributes to achieving future food and feed security. Furthermore, they are major ingredients in the Mediterranean diet, playing a vital role in developing countries. Global food security requires a major re-focusing of plant sciences, crop improvement and production agronomy towards grain legumes (pulse crops) over coming decades, with intensive research to identify cultivars with improved grain characteristics, helping to develop novel legume-derived products (foods) adapted to today consumer preference. In this context, studies dealing with legume processing impact such as soaking, boiling, microwave cooking, germination, and fermentation among others, in their nutritional and anti-nutritional (i.e., food allergy) properties are of great interest in these future food developments. This Research Topic aims to bring together a collection of studies for a better understanding of current research in legume seed compounds functional properties to provide an updated and global vision of the importance of legumes in human health.
