Recently discovered immune cell type is key to understanding food allergies.

Called 'tolerogenic dendritic cells,' these cells enable food to pass through the body without triggering an immune reaction, unless they malfunction to cause allergies.

These cells are known to ignore or "tolerate" molecules found on the body's own healthy cells, for instance, as well as nonthreatening substances from outside the body like food.
