Pulmonary delivery of virosome-bound antigen enhances antigen-specific CD4+ T cell proliferation compared to liposome-bound or soluble antigen

Pulmonary administration of biomimetic nanoparticles loaded with antigen may represent an effective strategy to directly modulate adaptive immune responses

Research

Progressive increase of FcεRI expression across several PBMC subsets is associated with atopy and atopic asthma within school-aged children

The expression pattern of FcεRI on DC and basophils differentiates asthmatic from non-asthmatic atopic children

Research

Airway Microbiota Dynamics Uncover a Critical Window for Interplay of Pathogenic Bacteria and Allergy in Childhood Respiratory Disease

To complement early allergic sensitization, monitoring NPM composition may enable early detection and intervention in high-risk children

Research

Prevalence of allergic sensitization, hay fever, eczema, and asthma in a longitudinal birth cohort

The aim of this study was to longitudinally assess the prevalence of allergic sensitization, asthma, eczema and hay fever from infancy to adulthood

Research

Chronic cat allergen exposure induces a Th2 cell-dependent IgG4 response related to low sensitization

This study evaluated the relationship between cat allergen–specific biomarkers in adults with cat allergy with and without cat ownership.

Elucidation of pathways driving asthma pathogenesis: Development of a systems-level analytic strategy

Whereas asthma was rare in the late 1800s and early 1900s, the marked increase in its incidence and prevalence since the 1960s points to substantial gene ×...

The mechanism of deep inspiration-induced bronchoprotection: Evidence from a mouse model

In healthy individuals, deep inspirations (DIs) taken prior to a bronchial challenge reduce the bronchoconstrictor response, which is termed...

Antibacterial antibody responses associated with the development of asthma in house dust mite-sensitised and non-sensitised children

We aimed to measure the antibody development to 2 bacteria in a birth cohort at high risk of allergic disease, and to assess which responses are asthma-linked.

Symptomatic viral infection is associated with impaired response to treatment in children with acute asthma

The objective of this study was to examine the influence of viral respiratory infection (VRI) on treatment response in acute asthma in children.
