Tick-induced allergy to red meat is associated with anti-α-Gal IgE antibody levels. We propose that tick salivary prostaglandin E2 triggers antibody class switching in mature B cells, increasing the levels of anti-α-Gal IgE antibodies. Immune tolerance to α-Gal in blood type B individuals might reduce the risk to this allergy.
蜱虫引起的红肉过敏与抗α-Gal IgE 抗体水平有关。我们提出,蜱虫唾液中的前列腺素 E2 可触发成熟 B 细胞中的抗体类别转换,增加抗α-Gal IgE 抗体的水平。B 型血个体对α-Gal 的免疫耐受可能会降低这种过敏的风险。
