Zusammenfassung
Aims: The family of cereal alpha-amylase/trypsin inhibitors (ATIs), pest resistance molecules of grains, has been implicated in the development of allergic responses. We have identified wheat ATIs (CM3 and 0.19) as potent activators of innate immunity in celiac disease by engaging the toll like receptor 4 (TLR4)-MD2-CD14 complex in monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells. ATIs are also present in other plants but have not been evaluated in relation to innate immune activation. Objective: To extract, purify and characterize ATIs from cereals, grains and legumes and to evaluate their ability to stimulate innate…
