Enhancement of Th1 Lung Immunity Induced by Recombinant Mycobacterium bovis BCG Attenuates Airway Allergic Disease
American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology, 10/07/09
Christ AP et al. – This work offers a non classical interpretation for the hygiene hypothesis indicating that attenuation of lung allergy by rBCG could be due to the enhancement of local lung Th1 immunity induced by rBCG–S1PT. Moreover, it highlights the possible use of rBCG strains as multipurpose immunomodulators by inducing specific immunity against microbial products and at the same time protecting against allergic asthma.
