A Special Allergy

We are all damaged by eating foods we are allergic to and we all respond the same way. Our organs fight back when they get these substances by making prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). It is not made immediately-not the first few times we eat it. It is made later, when a south pole force, perhaps nickel, has arrived at that organ. No matter which food allergen is causing the never-ending irritation, the organ cells respond by making PGE2. After this the cells no longer seem to stick together to make normal tight tissues. Maybe (and this is only a theory) they are forced to spill their enzymes, like collagenase. This enzyme digests collagen in its neighborhood. Then cells would loosen their hold on neighbor-cells and set themselves free to roam.
