Fish allergy symptoms

Parvalbumin was found to be a major fish allergen in approximately 70% of fish allergies, mediated by parvalbumin IgE antibodies, leading to respiratory and gastrointestinal symptoms. Parvalbumin also became of interest because of its potential use in gene therapy to correct cardiomyopathy. 

Research conducted by Moneret-Vautrin has shown that allergy in children aged from 6 months to 14 years initiates with allergy to milk, then eggs, fish, and hazelnuts. They account for 74.2% of symptoms. In 63% of adults, apples, hazelnuts, vegetables (carrots, celeriac), seafood, eggs, fish, and milk are allergens (Moneret-Vautrin et al., 1998).
