The lymphocyte responses to intact BLG and these peptides were examined using peripheral blood mononuclear cells PBMCs from 10 patients with cow s milk allergy. The PBMCs from most patients had lower lymphocyte responses to chymotrypsin- and trypsin V-digested BLG peptides than those to intact BLG. However PBMCs from one and two patients retained significant proliferative responses to both peptides and to only the former peptide respectively. Interferon-c production stimulated by chymotrypsin-digested peptides was still detectable in all five patients tested. Chymotrypsin-digested BLG reduced lgE reactivity but still induced some lymphocyte responses. Cow s milk is one of the most common food allergens in the first year of life with approximately 2 to 2.5 of infants experiencing allergic reactions to it. The majority of children outgrow their allergy to cow s milk before the age of 3 years but 15 of infants with immunoglobulin Ig E-mediated cow s milk allergy retain their sensitivity into the second decade.1 2 The therapy for food allergy is a problem that is still to be resolved. The first therapeutic approach to patients with cow s milk allergy is elimination from the diet of cow s milk proteins. However this is not always easy because cow s milk is an essential constituent of the diet or can be found in other foods as a hidden allergen. .
