Prevention of Allergy/Asthma - New StrategiesThis review focuses on the scientific rationale for early intervention aimed at asthma prophylaxis and discusses therapeutic approaches
Research
Developments in the field of allergy in 2014 through the eyes of Clinical and Experimental AllergyThe pathogenesis of asthma continues to be a major topic of interest to our authors with reviews and original papers on the role of viruses, mechanisms of...

Transcription factor p63 regulates key genes and wound repair in human airway epithelial Basal cellsThe airway epithelium in asthma displays altered repair and incomplete barrier formation.

Comparison of rhinovirus antibody titers in children with asthma exacerbations and species-specific rhinovirus infectionAsthma exacerbations are associated with human rhinovirus (HRV) infections, and more severe exacerbations are associated with HRV-C.
Research
Respiratory allergen from house dust mite is present in human milk and primes for allergic sensitization in a mouse model of asthmaThese data highlight that antigen administration to the neonate through the oral route may contribute to child allergic sensitization and have important...

Prediction of asthma in childhood from wheezing phenotypes up to age 3 years: findings from community cohorts in Western Australian and the United KingdomIn this project we are examining how well different wheezing phenotypes in the first 3 years of life predict current asthma in adolescents and young adults.

Examining relationships between vitamin D over the first decade of life and development of asthma and allergyThis study shows for the first time the importance of considering vitamin D levels over a prolonged period during childhood, rather than at just one or two ages

Developmental-associated dysregulation of innate anti-microbial immunity in early life as a determinant of susceptibility to atopic asthmaOne of the strongest risk factors for asthma is having chest infections during infancy that are so severe that they trigger symptoms of fever & wheeze
