Boosting airway T-regulatory cells by gastrointestinal stimulation as a strategy for asthma control

The hallmark of atopic asthma is transient airways hyperresponsiveness (AHR) preceded by aeroallergen-induced Th-cell activation.

The advent of recombinant allergens and allergen cloning Authors:

When the allergen nomenclature system was adopted in 1986, allergens were identified by their behavior on electrophoresis and chromatography...

Epidemiologic associations between viral lower respiratory infections (LRIs) and asthma in later childhood are well known

UV exposure and protection against allergic airways disease

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the small and large conducting airway mucosa characterised by Th2 cell immunity.

Toward improved prediction of risk for atopy and asthma among preschoolers: A prospective cohort study

Atopy and asthma are commonly initiated during early life, and there is increasing interest in the development of preventive treatments for at-risk children.
