Understanding the immune mechanisms leading to resolution of peanut allergy

食物过敏影响高达10%的儿童，而且比率还在上升。上升幅度最大的是花生过敏，这是威胁生命反应的最常见原因。目前，还没有治愈食物过敏的方法。管理依赖于避免食物，而这是不可能实现的。最近有儿童死于食物过敏，这凸显了有效治疗的必要性。这个项目将研究当你长大后对花生过敏会发生什么。新的信息将带来可能的治疗方法。

Food allergy affects up to 10% of children and rates are rising. The greatest rise has been in peanut allergy which is the commonest cause of life threatening reactions. Currently, there is no cure for food allergy. Management relies on food avoidance which is impossible to achieve. Recent deaths in children from food allergy highlight the need for an effective treatment. This project will examine what happens when you grow out of peanut allergy. New information will lead to possible cures.
