Due to the observed increase of consumption of lupine-fortified food products and the high homology of lupine protein to other legumes, occurrence of new lupine allergy cases can increase significantly. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the seeds of 18 new Polish lupine breeding lines for immunoreactivity in relation to the sera of the patients sensitized to cross-reacting allergens, i.e. to soybeans and peanuts, using the western blot method. Antibodies present in the sera obtained from two adult outpatients cross-reacted with the studied extracts and made it possible to indicate six lines with decreased expression of Lup an 1 (high molecular weight subunit of β-conglutin): Mandelup, Mirela, Puławski Różowy Wczesny, Ignis, 25-65-M-4-1 and Stadoliszczenskij L-610 lines. Two more lines (Schmalblaettrige Schwerzplatzen and Rammiespielyj) are probably also less immunoreactive, due to the decreased content of alkaline subunit of α-conglutin—Lup an 2. The highest variability in immunoreactivity of proteins in question was noted for peptides with molecular weights ~ 20, 23, 28, 33, 38, 39, 43, 49, 50 and 63 kDa. Unfortunately, different patterns of immunoreactivity of the seeds obtained from various cultivation sites was noted for some lines. The correlation between the total protein content and reduced immunoreactivity of the tested lines was not confirmed. Thus, the lines with decreased immunoreactivity could be considered material for future crossing the narrow-leafed lupine lines to obtain varieties intended for food production.
