Research Abstract |
To investigate the etiology of food allergy and inflammatory bowel diseases(IBD) in children in relation to peptides derived from digested food proteins, their antigenicity was analyzed ; however, no specific reactions were confirmed in serum derived from food allergy or IBD. We have also investigated the mucosal samples taken from food protein-induced proctocolitis(FPIP) and IBD with microarray, RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry and found that the lymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilic infiltration into the colonic mucosa in response to CCL11 and CXCL13 signaling is important in FPIP while CXCL9 and CXCR3 are the key molecules in pediatric IBD.
