Demonstration of Gliadin Penetration into the Epidermis by Tape Stripping as Prerequisite for Percutaneous Sensitisation in Wheat Allergy.

International journal of molecular sciences · 2026

Sensitisation leading to food allergy may occur through the skin. Quantitative data on epidermal allergen penetration as a prerequisite for this remain limited. This study quantifies epidermal penetration of gluten and hydrolysed wheat protein (HWP) in 18 patients with challenge-confirmed WALDA (wheat allergy dependent on augmentation factors) and 12 healthy controls (HC). After 1 h of… Read on PubMed →
