AIM To determine whether oral administration of Bifidobacterium infantis CGMCC313-2 (B. infantis CGMCC313-2) inhibits allergen-induced airway inflammation and food allergies in a mouse model. METHODS Ovalbumin (OVA)-induced allergic asthma and β-lactoglobulin-induced food allergy mouse models were used in this study. Following oral administration of B. infantis CGMCC313-2 during or after alle...

allergic asthma is the most common acute inflammatory airway disorder and their incidence population has exploded in the last years, being estimated that over 300 million people worldwide have the condition. here, we present a brief overview of relationship of allergic asthma with diet and food intake. several studies have shown that most asthma cases are due to an allergic immune response to e...

Asthma is a complicated disorder, whose prevalence has increased over the past few decades.Asthma is characterized by infiltration of inflammatory leukocytes along with enhancedproinflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Fungi are now far more widely being considered as thedominant extrinsic trigger for asthma. Fungi are linked to the severity of asthma in many ways. Somedifferences between studi...

background: there are many therapeutic methods for allergic conditions. cpg oli-gonucleotides play a critical role in immunity via the augmentation of th1 and suppres-sion of th2 responses. objective: in the present study we aimed to estimate the effec-tiveness of intranasal administration of cpg odn plus chenopodium album allergen in allergic asthma compared with the administration of allergen...

asthma and allergic diseases present a major health burden. information on the prevalence of these diseases indicates that these diseases are increasing in various parts of the world. it was hoped that this study would be helpful to health system policy-makers in planning allergy prevention programs in the region.the prevalence of asthma and allergic diseases and relation between the various ri...

background: asthma and allergic rhinitis are among the most common diseases in the world. objective: the aim of this study was to detect, by skin prick test, aeroallergens in allergic patients in sari, mazandaran in north of iran. methods: this is a prospective study of skin prick test of aeroallergens in asthma, allergic rhinitis and their combination with clinical diagnosis. three hundred and...

The development of chronic allergic dermatitis in early life has been associated with increased onset and severity of allergic asthma later in life. However, the mechanisms linking these two diseases are poorly understood. In this study, we report that the development of oxazolone-induced chronic allergic dermatitis, in a mouse model, caused enhanced OVA-induced allergic asthma after the resolu...
