A research, led by Murdoch Children's Research Institute (MCRI) and the University of Melbourne, found being exposed to higher levels of air pollution from infancy was associated with increased odds of developing a peanut allergy and having the allergy persist across the first 10 years of life. However, the same association was not seen for egg allergy or eczema, reports MedicalXpress.
Published in The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice, the study is the first to explore the link between air pollution and challenge-proven food allergy over the first decade of life.
The research involved 5,276 children in Melbourne from the HealthNuts study, recruited at age one and followed-up at four, six and 10 years. The research team used estimates of the annual average concentration of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) at each participant's residential address at the time of each follow up.
"This is the first study to use an oral food challenge, the gold-standard of food allergy diagnosis, to investigate the relationship between food allergy and air pollution,” the researchers noted.
“Air pollutants have an irritant and inflammatory effect that may boost the immune systems pro-allergic response, potentially triggering the development of food allergies. However, the underlying mechanisms of how air pollution increases the risk of a peanut allergy, and why eczema and egg allergy aren't impacted in the same way, need to be explored further," they added.
