Milk is one of the first food components introduced into the diet and therefore represents one of the most important food allergen sources in terms of frequency and severity of allergic manifestations. Cow’s milk contains 25 different proteins, but only the whey proteins Milk is one of the first food components introduced into the diet and therefore represents one of the most important food allergen sources in terms of frequency and severity of allergic manifestations. The symptoms of cow’s milk allergy are due to IgE-mediated activation of mast cells and basophils as well as to activation of allergen-specific T cells, and they comprise a plethora of gastrointestinal, skin, respiratory, and severe systemic manifestations such as death due to anaphylactic shock. Cow’s milk contains 25 different proteins, but only the whey proteins α-lactalbumin, β-lactoglobulin, BSA, and lactoferrin, as well as the four caseins, have been identified as allergens. beta-Lactoglobulin (BLG) is a member of the lipocalin protein family and a major food-borne allergen in humans. It binds retinol and is probably involved in the transport of that molecule. Numerous in vitro studies have suggested a role for BLG in molecular transport processes; however, its physiological role remains enigmatic.
