Abstract
A novel hyposensitization agent was prepared by covalently attaching a saccharide to a cedar pollen allergen having a partial amino acid sequence of Ala-Ile-Asn-Ile-Phe-Asn- beginning at its N-terminal. The hyposensitization agent, when compared with an intact cedar pollen allergen, extremely accelerates the production of immunoglobulin G and M antibodies which are specific to intact cedar pollen allergen, but extremely reduces the production of immunoglobulin E antibody which is specific to the allergen. Thus, the hyposensitization agent is administrable to cedar pollinosis patients with no anaphylaxis and allergy, and cuts hyposensitization period to about 1/3 to 1/200.
