摘要：The early ingestion of food can prevent the onset of food allergy related to inducing oral tolerance (OT). We developed the Hokushin wheat line as a hypoallergenic wheat (1BS-18H) lacking ω5-gliadin, a major allergen of wheat-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis (WDEIA). The 1BS-18H wheat had lower ability of sensitization for ω5-gliadin compared with Hokushin wheat. Here, we evaluated the induction of OT to gluten and ω5-gliadin by the early consecutive ingestion of 1BS-18H gluten using a rat model of wheat allergy. Rats were subcutaneously immunized with commercial gluten or native ω5-gliadin following the daily oral administration of gluten. The daily oral administration of 1BS-18H gluten for 5 days before immunization suppressed the increase in gluten- or ω5-gliadin-specific IgE and IgG
1 antibodies induced by immunization to a level similar to Hokushin gluten. Intravenous challenge with gluten or ω5-gliadin did not decrease the rectal temperature in rats with OT induced by 1BS-18H or Hokushin gluten, although it was decreased in non-OT rats. In conclusion, the early consecutive ingestion of 1BS-18H wheat before sensitization induced OT to gluten and ω5-gliadin. These findings support the benefit of 1BS-18H wheat to prevent wheat allergy including WDEIA by consecutive ingestion in humans.
