Interaction of Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cells with Ara h 2 from Raw and Roasted Peanuts
2020
Ara h 2 is a relevant peanut allergen linked to severe allergic reactions. The interaction of Ara h 2 with components of the sensitization phase of food allergy (e.g., dendritic cells) has not been investigated, and could be key to understanding the allergenic potential of this allergen. In this study, we aimed to analyze such interactions and the possible mechanism involved. Ara h 2 was purified from two forms of peanut, raw and roasted, and labeled with a fluorescent dye. Human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MDDCs) were obtained, and experiments of Ara h 2 internalization by MDDCs were carried out. The role of the mannose receptor in the internalization of Ara h 2 from raw and roasted peanuts was also investigated. Results showed that Ara h 2 internalization by MDDCs was both time and dose dependent. Mannose receptors in MDDCs had a greater implication in the internalization of Ara h 2 from roasted peanuts. However, this receptor was also important in the internalization of Ara h 2 from raw peanuts, as opposed to other allergens such as raw Ara h 3.
