Design: The study was performed retrospectively on sera collected from children with severe atopic dermatitis with total IgE serum concentration (IgE>3000 U.I./ml), as a serum sample controls we used the children¡¯s sera suffering from severe food allergy and with high IgE concentrations against food proteins (IgE>90 kU/l). All these serum samples were used to identify skin-derived antigen by using immunoproteome technique. Setting: Institute for Maternal and Child Health. Patients: Six children suffering from severe atopic dermatitis and six suffering from severe food allergy without skin involvement. Interventions: Serological proteome analysis (SERPA) for antigen identification. Main outcome measures: First immunoproteomic study for identification of potential antigen in severe atopic dermatitis. Identification of two immunoreactive proteins IGKC (Ig kappa chain C region) and IGLC1 (Ig lambda-1 chain C regions). Results: After membranes analysis we identified two immunoreactive proteins IGKC and IGLC1 present only in membrane treated with severe atopic dermatitis. Reaction of these proteins were considered non-specific event and didn¡¯t further investigate. Conclusions: Using SERPA analysis we identified two immuno-reactive proteins. Even these proteins have proved to be non-specific event; this showed the great potential of SERPA for antigen identification. %K Atopic dermatitis %K Antigen %K Serological proteome analysis %K list of open access journals %K open access %K open access journals %K open access publication %K open access publisher %K open access publishing %K open access journal articles %K imedpub %K imedpub publishing %K insight medical publishing %K imedpub online %U https://www.imedpub.com/articles/serological-proteome-analysis-for-identification-of-potential-antigen-in-atopic-dermatitis.php?aid=17837
