Abstract

Peanut allergy reaction severity correlates with increased intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) barrier permeability. CC027/GeniUnc mice develop peanut allergy by intragastric administration of peanut proteins without adjuvant. We report that peanut-allergic CC027/GeniUnc mice showed increased IEC barrier permeability and systemic peanut allergen Ara h 2 after challenge. Jejunal epithelial cell transcriptomics showed effects of peanut allergy on IEC proliferation, survival, and metabolism, and revealed IEC-predominant angiopoietin like-4 (Angptl4) as a unique feature of CC027/GeniUnc peanut allergy. CC027/GeniUnc mice and peanut-allergic pediatric patients demonstrated significantly higher serum Angptl4 and ANGPTL4 compared to control C3H/HeJ mice and non-peanut-allergic but atopic patients, respectively, highlighting its potential as a biomarker of peanut allergy.
