Topic: DAO deficiency: etiology, its different clinical manifestations, its dietary treatment, the regulatory framework, and any research project or innovation on the Diamine Oxidase (DAO) enzyme and its deficiency activity.

We invite scientists, academics, physicians, nutritionists, pharmacists, as well as professionals from the pharmaceutical and food industry to participate as International Experts on DAO deficiency by indicating the topic and content of their papers, whose abstract should be SUBMITTED before JULY 30, 2022. The proposed content will be reviewed by the scientific committee of the II International Congress of DAO Deficiency 2022.

The accepted papers will be broadcast live and simultaneously translated into different languages during the congress.

What is the current relevance of DAO deficiency?

For more than 20 years, DAO deficiency has been gaining great scientific, medical, pharmaceutical and nutritionist interest, as well as in the pharmaceutical and food industry, as evidenced by the increasing number of publications each year on this widespread metabolic disorder. It is estimated to affect 15% of the world’s population. Among the pathologies caused by DAO deficiency are neurological conditions such as migraine, gastrointestinal conditions such as irritable bowel disease, dermatological conditions such as dermatitis, dry skin and atopy, psychiatric conditions such as fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue, and psychological conditions such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

Numerous clinical studies have shown the positive effects of the use of the Diamine Oxidase (DAO) enzyme for the dietary management of pathologies associated with DAO deficiency. All this has led the European Commission to categorize the DAO enzyme as a Novel Food and the FDA as a GRAS.

This fruitful field of research, regulation and application of Diamine Oxidase enzyme deficiency justifies the need to extend the knowledge of this metabolic disorder in the scientific, medical, pharmaceutical and nutritionist community, as well as to extend its applications in the pharmaceutical and food industry, for better care of patients suffering from DAO deficiency. These are the objectives of the International Congress of DAO deficiency promoted every year by DR Healthcare.
