Allergy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Basophils, the least abundant leukocytes, are increasingly recognised as potent immunomodulators. Upon activation, they rapidly release preformed granule‐associated mediators including histamine and lipid mediators such as LTC4, while cytokine production occurs over a longer timescale, contributing to downstream immune responses.

Orientation of helminths during host seeking [PDF]
, 2014 Helminths are often forced in the environment to search for their host quickly in order to continue the ontogenetic development, or else to finish it. To search for and indentify the host, they use various types of receptors which allow them to provoke a

Understanding the Type 2 Immunity: An Evolving View Beyond Allergic Diseases
Allergy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Type 2 (T2) immunity is classically associated with defense against helminths and environmental threats, from a physiological perspective, and with allergies and eosinophilic inflammatory diseases, in a pathological sense. However, growing evidence reveals that T2 pathways also support other essential homeostatic functions, including tissue ...

The Origins of Allergy: An Outside‐In, Bioenergetic Hypothesis
Allergy, 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 ...
