J,Sampson HA,Li XM. The Chinese herbal medicine formula FAHF-2

completely blocks anaphylactic reactions in a murine model of peanut

allergy. Department of Pediatrics, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New

York, NY 10029-6574, USA. BACKGROUND: Peanut allergy is potentially

life threatening. There is no curative therapy for this disorder. We previously

found that an herbal formula, food allergy herbal formula (FAHF)-1, blocked

peanut-induced anaphylaxis in a murine model when challenged

immediately posttherapy. OBJECTIVE: To test whether FAHF-2, an

improved herbal formula, from which 2 herbs, Zhifuzi (Rx Lateralis Aconiti

Carmichaeli Praep) and Xixin (Hb Asari), were eliminated, is equally

effective to FAHF-1, and if so, whether protection persists after therapy is

discontinued. METHODS: Mice allergic to peanut treated with FAHF-2 for 7

weeks were challenged 1, 3, or 5 weeks posttherapy. Anaphylactic scores,

core body temperatures, vascular leakage, and plasma histamine levels

after peanut challenge were determined. Serum peanut-specific antibody

levels and splenocyte cytokine profiles were also measured. RESULTS:

After challenges, all sham-treated mice developed severe anaphylactic

signs, significant decrease in rectal temperatures, significantly increased

plasma histamine levels, and marked vascular leakage. In contrast, no sign

of anaphylactic reactions, decrease in rectal temperatures, or elevation of

plasma histamine levels was observed in FAHF-2-treated mice in 5 separate

experiments. IgE levels were significantly reduced by FAHF-2 treatment and

remained significantly lower as long as 5 weeks posttherapy. Splenocytes

from FAHF-2-treated mice showed significantly reduced IL-4, IL-5, and IL-

13, and enhanced IFN-gamma production to recall peanut stimulation in

vitro . CONCLUSION: FAHF-2 treatment completely eliminated anaphylaxis

in mice allergic to peanut challenged as long as 5 weeks posttherapy. This

result was associated with downregulation of T H 2 responses. FAHF-2 may

be a potentially effective and safe therapy for peanut allergy.
