For 20 years, the hygiene hypothesis has dominated attempts to explain the increasing prevalence of allergic disease. A causal link between maternal innate immu
The house dust mite allergen Der p 2 is one of the most important indoor allergens associated with allergic disease.
Inhaled allergens are known for their immediate and ongoing effects in the respiratory tract (RT).
Atopic asthma, which is at its highest prevalence during childhood/young adulthood, represents the main focus of this review.
Current infant vaccination against pertussis in North America and Australia requires three doses of vaccines including diphtheria, tetanus and acellular...
Early immunological influences on asthma development: opportunities for early intervention
The developing immune system and allergy
Early aberrant antibody responses, aeroallergen sensitised people, subclinical bacterial infection

The immunological changes underpinning acquisition of remission (also called sustained unresponsiveness) following food immunotherapy remain poorly defined. Limited access to effective therapies and biosamples from treatment responders has prevented progress. Probiotic peanut oral immunotherapy is highly effective at inducing remission, providing an opportunity to investigate immune changes.
