What links dust mites, shellfish, and insect food allergies?

A study of 634 allergy patients in Tenerife found that 22% were sensitized to edible insects—often without ever consuming them, due to cross-reactivity with house dust mites. Tropomyosin and arginine kinase were key shared allergens, but a subset reacted to unknown insect proteins, raising new concerns about emerging food allergies.
