Farm‐dust mediated protection of childhood asthma: Mass cytometry reveals novel cellular regulation
Allergy, Volume 79, Issue 11, Page 3022-3035, November 2024.In vitro farm‐dust stimulation induced cell type‐specific regulation. Farm‐dust stimulation affects cellular frequencies by downregulating innate (monocytes/DCs and NK‐cells) and upregulating adaptive (B‐ and T‐cells) immune cell populations. Farm‐dust stimulation induces downregulation of asthma‐associated functional markers of inflammation (pERK1/2 ...
