pROF RFAM-4 Paris 2018 Dr. Mayte Villalba Which Oleaceae species are allergenic?
Forsythia Ash Privet Olive Lilac
Forsythia Fraxinus Ligustrum Olea Syringa intermedia excelsior vulgare europaea vulgaris Pollen sensitization is usually restricted to anemophilous plants, mainly Ash and Olive. Anemophilous pollens are small, dehydrated with good aerodynamic properties that allow their dissemination over hundreds of kilometers. Privet, lilac, and forsythia which are entomophilous, contain allergen homologues but allergies to their pollens are very scarce. Nanovesicles named pollensomes carrying allergens seemed to be a widespread mechanism of allergen transport in many clinically relevant species during in vitro germination. Prado N J Immunol. 2015 pROF RFAM-4 Paris 2018 Dr. Mayte Villalba Oleaceae trees: facts for allergy
Olive tree is an important cause of Type-I respiratory allergy in South Europe, just followed by grass pollen. Ash pollen is in the middle Europe and north of Spain after birch and grass pollen. Privet Villalba M et al 2014
The flowering period is variable: olive typically occurs between April to June and ash from late December to february Berghi N, 2014 Lilac
Elongation of the pollen season may drive to perennial symptoms on the allergic patients living in the Mediterranean area and in the people coming from north and middle Europe. García-Mozo et al., 2014
Urban people sensitized to Oleaceae could present allergenic reactions during the winter due to ash pollen allergens, in the spring by the olive pollen allergens and summer as consequence of the Privet or lilac flowering.
