Journal ArticleDOI
Early regular egg exposure in infants with eczema : a randomized controlled trial
Debra J. Palmer,Jessica Metcalfe,Maria Makrides,Michael Gold,Patrick Quinn,Christina E. West,Christina E. West,Richard Loh,Susan L. Prescott +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors sought to determine whether early regular ingestion of allergenic foods might reduce the risk of food allergy, and they found that early-regular ingestion of foods may reduce the food allergy risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Postnatal fish oil supplementation in high-risk infants to prevent allergy: randomized controlled trial.
Nina D'Vaz,Suzanne Meldrum,Janet Dunstan,David Martino,Suzi McCarthy,Jessica Metcalfe,Meri K. Tulic,Trevor A. Mori,Susan L. Prescott +8 more
TL;DR: Postnatal fish oil supplementation improved infant n-3 status but did not prevent childhood allergic disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for age-related and individual-specific changes in DNA methylation profile of mononuclear cells during early immune development in humans.
David Martino,Meri K. Tulic,Lavinia Gordon,Megan Hodder,Tara R. Richman,Jessica Metcalfe,Susan L. Prescott,Richard Saffery +7 more
TL;DR: The data suggests that the primary driver of neonatal epigenome is determined in utero, whilst postnatally, multiple genetic and environmental factors are implicated in the development of MC epigenetic profile, particularly between the ages of 1–5 years, when the highest level of inter individual variation is apparent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nina D'Vaz,Suzanne Meldrum,Janet Dunstan,Tracey F. Lee-Pullen,Jessica Metcalfe,Barbara J. Holt,Michael Serralha,Meri K. Tulic,Trevor A. Mori,Susan L. Prescott +9 more
TL;DR: Maternal fish oil supplementation during pregnancy has been associated with altered infant immune responses and a reduced risk of infant sensitization and eczema.
Journal ArticleDOI
