The most important allergens in young children are derived from animal foods. Therefore, researches of food allergy are mainly developed on hen's eggs and cow's milk. On the other hand, new types of allergy such as pollen allergy, latex allergy and oral allergy syndrome have recently been increasing. These allergies are characteristically caused by plant allergens and seen in adults. In the former case, sensitization and induction are usually caused by a same allergen (Type I food allergy). However, they are caused by different antigens with cross-reactivity in the latter case (Type II food allergy). This review first focuses on cross-reactivity of plant allergens to explain the increase of the Type II food allergy and then summarizes the information and our data about the major plant allergen, Lipid Transfer Protein.
