- Activity summary
The major pollen allergen Lol p 5a also known as Lolium perenne group 5 allergen is a significant protein found in ryegrass pollen. This protein weighs around 28 kDa and is widely expressed in the pollen of the perennial ryegrass a common allergenic plant. It plays a mechanical role in pollen grain wall integrity and pollen-tube growth contributing to the reproductive success of the plant. Its strong allergenic properties make it key for immune responses in individuals sensitive to grass pollen.
- Biological function summary
This allergen elicits strong immune responses in humans often leading to allergic reactions. It forms a part of a complex network of pollen proteins that trigger the body's defense mechanisms. This interaction is key in conditioning the immune system's recognition and response to non-self proteins from the pollen often causing hay fever or allergic rhinitis symptoms in many individuals. As one of the major protein components in pollen its presence is felt prominently during grass pollination seasons.
- Pathways
The immune response pathway primarily involves IgE-mediated reactions. Lol p 5a interacts with immune cells such as mast cells and basophils. It stands out in the adaptive immune pathway where these immune cells release histamines and other mediators upon activation. Other pollen proteins might compete for IgE but Lol p 5a often remains the dominant allergen prompting more targeted immune reactions.
- Associated diseases and disorders
Lol p 5a plays a notable role in allergies like hay fever and asthma conditions significantly affecting respiratory health. The allergen's interaction with immune proteins such as IgE leads to hypersensitivity reactions characterized by inflammation and nasal congestion. Its link with other pollen-derived allergenic proteins further compounds these allergic responses contributing to persistent symptoms in sensitive individuals.
