- Abstract
- The family Anisakidae, mainly represented by Anisakis simplex s.l. and Pseudoterranova decipiens, encompasses zoonotic nematodes infecting many marine fish. Both are responsible for gastrointestinal disease in humans after ingestion of a live larva by consumption of undercooked fish, and, in the case of A. simplex, an allergic reaction may occur after consuming or even handling infected fish. Due to its phylogenetic relatedness with A. simplex, few studies investigated the allergenic potential of P. decipiens, yet none of them focused on its excretory/secretory (E/S) proteins that easily get missed when working solely on extracts from crushed nematodes. Moreover, these E/S allergens remain behind even when the larva has been removed during fish quality processing. Therefore, the aim was to investigate if Anisakis-like allergens could also be detected in both crushed and E/S P. decipiens protein extract using targeted mass spectrometry analysis and immunological methods. The results confirmed that at least five A. simplex allergens have homologous proteins in P. decipiens; a result that emphasizes the importance of also including E/S protein extracts in proteomic studies. Not only A. simplex, but also P. decipiens should therefore be considered a potential source of allergens that could lead to hypersensitivity reactions in humans.
