or vegetables and some tree nuts may have oral allergy syndrome. It is also known as pollen-food syndrome
since it is caused by cross-reacting allergens found in both pollen and raw produce. Sufferers can often mistake oral allergy syndrome symptoms for food allergy said allergist David Rosenstreich MD ACAAI fellow and study author.
But it isn't a food allergy and often patients can eat that food when it is cooked.
Not everyone with a pollen allergy will experience oral allergy syndrome when eating raw produce and tree nuts.
However the syndrome is associated commonly with these allergens: While oral allergy symptoms are typically mild including mouth
#Gene responsible for hereditary cancer found to disrupt growth-regulating cellular pathwaywhitehead Institute scientists report that the gene mutated in the rare hereditary disorder known as Birt-Hogg-Dub cancer syndrome
In the case of Birt-Hogg-Dub syndrome the mutated gene prevents mtorc1 pathway activation early in the formation of tumors.
In the early 2000s scientists determined that mutations in the gene coding for FLCN caused the rare cancer Birt-Hogg-Dub syndrome
but the syndrome's symptoms offered little insight into FLCN's molecular function. Birt-Hogg-Dub syndrome causes unsightly but benign hair follicle tumors on the face benign tumors in the lungs that can lead to collapsed lungs and kidney cancer.
The syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder which means that a child inheriting one mutated copy of the FLCN gene will eventually develop the syndrome.
Currently the disease is managed by treating symptoms but no cure exists. FLCN's dual roles--as a cause of a rare cancer in its mutated form
and as a trigger for a growth pathway that is often hijacked in cancer cells--has prompted Tsun
For Birt-Hogg-Dub syndrome patients and their families better understanding of FCLN's function moves the field one step closer to developing a therapy.

what may be a key to unraveling some of the mysteries of White Nose Syndrome: the closest known non-disease causing relatives of the fungus that causes WNS.
White Nose Syndrome was observed first in 2006 in a cave in Upstate New york . Since then it has spread to 22 states in the United states
When a plant is domesticated it acquires a suite of traits called the domestication syndrome that made it easier to grow as a crop.
In rice the syndrome includes loss of shattering (the seeds don't break off the central grain stalk before harvest) increase in seed size
Among other commonalities both viruses have a clinical picture that includes bilateral pneumonia acute respiratory distress syndrome
More accurate, sensitive DNA test allows early identification of fungus causing white nose syndromeeven after researchers studying White Nose Syndrome (WNS) established that a fungus called Geomyces destructans is at the heart
White Nose Syndrome was identified first in Upstate New york in 2006. Since then it has spread to caves throughout the East Coast
White Nose Syndrome is arguably the most devastating wildlife disease we've faced said Michael T. Rains Director of the Forest Service's Northern Research Station.
mysterious disease syndrome as key factors in bee colony deathsa new long-term study of honey bee health has found that a little-understood disease study authors are calling idiopathic
brood disease syndrome (IBDS) which kills off bee larvae is the largest risk factor for predicting the death of a bee colony.
The paper Idiopathic brood disease syndrome and queen events as precursors of colony mortality in migratory beekeeping operations in the eastern United states is published in the February issue of Preventive Veterinary medicine.
#Passive smoking increases risk of severe dementia, according to study in Chinaan international study by scientists in China the UK and USA has found a link between passive smoking and syndromes of dementia.
The study of nearly 6000 people in five provinces in China reveals that people exposed to passive smoking have increased a significantly risk of severe dementia syndromes.
and cognitive impairment but this is the first to find a significant link with dementia syndromes.
and Shanxi to characterise their levels of ETS exposure smoking habits and assess levels of dementia syndromes.
They found that 10 percent of the group had severe dementia syndromes. This was significantly related to exposure level and duration of passive smoking.
The associations with severe syndromes were found in people who had smoked never and in former and current smokers.
The data from the Anhui cohort which were collected at baseline in 2001-03 for dementia syndromes
and in the follow up in 2007-08 for ETS exposure and dementia further excluded the possibility that dementia syndromes caused people to be exposed more to environmental tobacco smoke.
'Passive smoking should be considered an important risk factor for severe dementia syndromes as this study in China shows.
Avoiding exposure to ETS may reduce the risk of severe dementia syndromes.''China along with many other countries now has a significantly aging population
More campaigns against tobacco exposure in the general population will help decrease the risk of severe dementia syndromes
'The increased risk of severe dementia syndromes in those exposed to passive smoking is increased similar to risk of coronary heart disease--suggesting that urgent preventive measures should be taken not just in China but many other countries.'

The problems often lead to the syndrome Colony Collapse Disorder which can cause whole bee colonies to fall apart.
One intriguing direction Radwan described that shows promise is that there may be interactions between M. phaseolina and other soil pathogens such as soybean cyst nematode (SCN) and sudden death syndrome (SDS.
or vegetables you may have oral allergy syndrome. Oral allergy syndrome is caused by cross-reacting allergens found in both pollen and raw fruits vegetables or some tree nuts.
An allergist can help you determine if your reaction to certain foods has to do with oral allergy syndrome
and possibly get you eating your favorite fruits and veggies again. Changes in Weather Can Heat up
Since 2006 White-Nose Syndrome has killed an estimated 7 million bats in North america the steepest wildlife decline in the past century.
This is known as food pollen syndrome cross-reacting allergens found in both pollen and raw fruits vegetables and some tree nuts.
Franklin says This syndrome is aggravated by rising CO2. As more carbon becomes available to the trees the limitation of nitrogen generated by mycorrhizae becomes even more important possibly eliminating

Cattle fatigue syndrome may be caused by many factors such as summer heat and exertion prior to harvest.
what he calls cattle fatigue syndrome. This isn't a new phenomenon Thomson said. We've seen this in other species. The swine industry 15 to 20 years ago discovered pig fatigue syndrome.
It occurred about the time they started feeding beta-agonists at a very high level to pigs.
They were able to recreate the same syndrome that we're now seeing in some cattle Thomson said.
what cattle fatigue syndrome is said Thomson but the reason more research must be done is that like the NANI pigs the syndrome has shown up in cattle that were fed a beta-agonist
and cattle that were fed not a beta-agonist. In our research when we've looked at cattle that are stressed not
