Structural studies of novel glycoconjugates from polymerized allergens (allergoids) and mannans as allergy vaccines

Abstract: Immunotherapy for treating IgE-mediated allergies requires high doses of the corresponding allergen. This may result in undesired side effects and, to avoid them, hypoallergenic allergens (allergoids) polymerized with glutaraldehyde are commonly used. Targeting allergoids to dendritic cells to enhance cell uptake may result in a more effective immunotherapy. Allergoids coupled to yeast mannan, as source of polymannoses, would be suitable for this purpose, since mannose-binding receptors are expressed on these … Show more

“…PM‐allergoids are the result of coupling polymerized allergoids to nonoxidized mannan from Saccharomyces cerevisae in such a way that the mannan structure is duly preserved 18, 22. Our results indicate that PM‐allergoids induce a faster and stronger immune response than that obtained with the native allergen, both at the cellular and humoral levels.…”

“…It is noteworthy to mention that every response assessed was always against the native allergens, irrespectively of the allergen preparation used for immunization. The immune response obtained with PM‐allergoids is achieved in spite of their high molecular weight,18 early suggested to be a serious impediment for the immunization through the sublingual route 23. Supporting this route also for PM‐allergoids is the response obtained in submandibular LNs, the primary draining lymph nodes of sublingual tissue 24.…”
