Food allergies are frustrating at best and life-threatening at worst, but scientists have developed animmunotherapy technique that can reverse allergic reactions in mice, and they think it could be used to treat allergies in humans, too.
食物过敏即便作最乐观的估计也是令人沮丧的,而在最坏的情况下有可能危及生命,不过科学家研制了一种免疫疗法,它可以逆转小鼠体内的过敏反应,因此他们认为这种疗法也可用来治疗人类的过敏症。
The treatment works by triggering the production of new dendritic cells - cells signal to other immune cells to cancel their hyper-immune responses. This ensured that anaphylaxis did not occur.
这种疗法可以促进新树突细胞的增殖,通过向其他免疫细胞发送信号来撤销它们的超免疫反应,确保过敏反应不会发生。
"If we can reliably 'cure' food allergies, or related conditions such as asthma or autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis with this new therapy, it would be life-changing for affected individuals," said lead scientist John Gordon from the University of Saskatchewan in Canada.
加拿大萨斯喀彻温大学首席科学家约翰·戈登表示,“如果我们确实能用这种新疗法‘治愈’食物过敏或相关的病症,如哮喘或多发性硬化症一类的自身免疫性疾病,对那些受过敏反应影响的人来说,这将会改变他们的人生。”
