Abstract:
<p>Today, atopic allergy is the most common chronic disease among children in the developed world. The increase in allergy prevalence during the past decades in these countries might be associated with lower microbial exposure. The gut flora, consisting of approximately 800 different species of bacteria, has been postulated to be important for the development of a fully functional immune system. Essentially, these bacteria are in constant contact with the gut flora associated lymphoid tissue, the largest lymphoid tissue of the human body. Following birth, the sterile gut of the newborn is imme

Abstract:
Food allergy, an immune-mediated adverse hypersensitivity reaction to ingested food, is an emerging global health problem that not only causes the disease to susceptible individuals but also causes psychological impacts and financial damage to their families. Food allergy incidence is significantly increased in the past decade and currently estimated at 6-8% in 1 year old children, and 2-4% in older children and adults. Food allergy is the leading cause of anaphylaxis in children and severe cases may lead to fatal anaphylaxis reactions. Although continuous efforts have been made to better unde

Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is a prevalent skin condition caused by chemical haptens, which enter the epidermis, and by modifying self-proteins, render them immunogenic via the activation of hapten-specific T-cells.

A recombinant form of trimeric CRD region (rhSP-D) has been shown to offer protection against asthma and inflammation in murine models by bringing down IgE levels, eosinophilia, and causing T helper cell polarisation from a pathogenic Th2 to a protective Th1 phenotype. Thus, rhSP-D can provide
