2306. Allergen. Molecule. Dog (rCan f1), IgE antibodies
Description
The main activity in the formation of an allergic reaction is shown by secretions (saliva, urine, etc.) and animal dander. Only after contact with the skin of the animal do the allergens get onto the coat.
Allergens Can f 1 belong to the epidermal group. It enters the body through the air and through contact with animals. Dog allergens are ubiquitous, even in rooms where there are no pets.
One of the main (major) dog allergens is rCan f1. It is a protein from the lipocalin family that is found in a dog's coat, dandruff, and saliva, but is absent in dog serum. Most of it is excreted with dandruff mainly in males, older animals and breeds of dogs prone to seborrhea. Molecules of the rCan f 1 allergen are thermally stable and can withstand temperatures of 140 ° for 60 minutes, and are also relatively stable in house dust. IgE antibodies to Can f 1 can be used as a specific marker, indicating that canine ASIT Can f 1 may be considered clinically relevant.
