Abstract

See full text

An immunogen comprising a residue of a histamine-releasing peptide comprising a cationic N-terminal head and a hydrophobic C-terminal tail, together with a residue capable of eliciting antibodies against said peptide while inhibiting histamine release by said peptide is useful in anti-allergy treatment. Preferably the histamine-releasing peptide is of formula: Lys-Thr-Lys-Gly-Ser-Gly-Phe-Phe-Val-Phe, SEQ ID NO: 6 optionally amidated at the C terminal. Antibodies to the histamine-releasing peptide are useful for passive immunization.
