open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergic disease has risen too rapidly for inherited susceptibility to explain it, and the risk variants so far reported lie in the epithelial barrier and in type‐2 immunity. We propose a five‐layer model in which epithelial barrier and bioenergetic dysfunction may precede and promote type‐2 immune deviation rather than arise solely as its ...
