N- and O-linked oligosaccharides of allergenic glycoproteins
Abstract
Cross-linking of cell-bound IgE on mast cells or basophils by polyvalent antigens causes the release of histamine and other mediators of the allergic response which then lead to the development of allergic symptoms. In this event not only peptide epitopes, but also carbohydrates can act as cross-linking elements. Since peptide epitopes of allergens are subject of most published studies, this review is focused on glycosidic epitopes. The current knowledge of the structures and possible epitopes of oligosaccharides linked to allergenic glycoproteins is briefly reviewed, showing that complex plant N-glycans containing alpha1,3 fucose and beta1,2 xylose are most frequently involved in the structures of IgE epitopes. In own studies a prevalence of up to 29% anti-glycan IgE was determined among pollen-allergic patients. The clinical relevance of these carbohydrate specific IgE antibodies is still a matter of controversial discussions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
