@liza_allergist @FrontAllergy but it’s unclear whether this would impart sustained protection, or what we refer to as a “disease-transformative” therapy.

We are pleased to share our new review in @FrontAllergy on current and prospective treatments for food allergy 1/

[Jordana-Waserman Lab @Jordana_Lab]

@liza_allergist @FrontAllergy Work from H Oettgen and others suggests that IgG4 inhibits MC/basophil activation through FcyRIIb and, perhaps, through sequestering allergen prior to its engagement with receptor-bound IgE. So IgG4 MAb treatment may ameliorate adverse events during OIT, similar to omalizumab...

[Jordana-Waserman Lab @Jordana_Lab]

A tremendous effort led by @allyssaphelps

[Jordana-Waserman Lab @Jordana_Lab]

Here, we discuss the immunobiology which underlies the persistence of IgE memory to food allergens, current/experimental treatments, and our perspective on future avenues to establish “disease-transformative” therapies. 3/

Great talk Emily 🎉

[McMaster Immunology @MacImmunology]

Excellent presentation from first year MSc student in the @Jordana_Lab! 👏 Emily’s work focuses on investigating the role of CD4+ T cells in allergic priming!

[McMaster Immunology @MacImmunology]

We are honoured to have hosted Dr. Marc Jenkins as a keynote speaker at this years Perey Symposium! Dr. Jenkins gave a fantastic talk on his latest work identifying antigen specific CD4+T cells.
