Why do people develop antibodies to food? While clinicians have long observed that healthy humans develop a particular type of antibody, called IgG, to the foods they eat, the reasons for this phenomenon have remained unknown. Researchers, led by investigators from Allergy and Immunology at Mass General Brigham, have identified the mechanism underlying IgG antibody development to food proteins. They discovered that humans are intrinsically predisposed to develop a particular type of IgG antibody to peanut by human antibody genes. These antibodies develop, whether or not they develop peanut allergy. Results are published in Science Translational Medicine.
