| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of the vaccine for food allergy using degradated allergens.
We first prepared the degradated allergen by treating the allergen under the acid condition. We then evaluated the antigenicity and T cell stimulatory activity of the degradated allergen, and showed that the treatment could be used to prepare the degradated allergen having T cell stimulatory activity with reduced antigenicity. We finally showed that the oral administration of the degradated allergen to food allergy model mice inhibited the induction of food allergy triggered by the subsequent intake of the intact allergen. Our results demonstrated that the efficacy and safety of the food allergy vaccine.
