A proinflammatory role of T helper (Th)17 cells, producing IL-22 and IL-17A, has been favored although there is evidence for negative immune regulation by IL-17A. Here we show that IL-22 was produced during an allergic response in lungs of mice, immunized and challenged with ovalbumin (OVA), and that IL-22 neutralization further augmented the eosinophil recruitment to the lung. In a second allergy model, transfer of OVA-pulsed dendritic cells (DC) into naive mice conveyed eosinophil recruitment in response to subsequent inhaled OVA challenge, while DC preincubation with recombinant IL-22 abolished this response. Similarly, DC preincubation with IL-17A abolished DC-driven eosinophil recruitment, showing that both Th17 cytokines IL-22 and IL-17A mediate negative regulation of allergy by acting on DCs. Therefore, IL-22 inhibits DC functions and attenuates an allergic response.

Oral Exposure to Toxin A Aggravates Food Allergy by Intestinal Barrier Destruction, Mast Cell Activation, and Th2-Biased Immune Responses.

Food allergy is a complex disease, with multiple environmental factors involved. Considering the regulatory effect of toxin A (Tcd A) on biological processes of allergic reactions, the role of oral exposure to Tcd A on food allergy was investigated. The intestinal permeability and β-hexosaminidase were promoted by Tcd A using the in vitro Caco-2 and HT-29 cells coculture monolayer and bone marrow-derived mast cell (MCs) degranulation model.

Introduction: COVID-19 vaccination has been a key intervention in reducing the severity of symptoms; however, concerns about vaccine safety, particularly regarding allergic reactions, arose early on. Healthcare workers faced the challenge of addressing these concerns to ensure safe vaccine administration. This study aimed to review the practical aspects of using allergy skin testing for COVID-19 vaccine excipients in patients with a history of allergic reactions developed following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination.

Background: While much of the evidence linking the rapid urbanization and the increasing prevalence of allergen sensitization, but little is known regarding rural-to-urban migrants. The aim of this study was to identify the disparities in allergy, the gut microbiome and factors among native urban, migrating, and native rural Chinese.
Methods: We redesigned the dataset of the China Alliance of Research on Respiratory Allergic Disease secondary survey, and after stratified sampling, a subsample of 2422 subjects were enrolled for the analysis of a questionnaire, skin prick tests (SPT), and specific immunoglobulin E (sIgE) titer measurements against 8 common allergens.
Management of children with food allergies by allergists in the United States.

Background: Management of patients with food allergies is complex, especially in cases of patients with multiple and potentially severe food allergies. Although international guidelines exist for food allergy management, the role of the allergist in the decision-making process is key.
Objective: Our aim was to investigate the management patterns and educational needs of practicing allergists treating patients with food allergies.

Department of Critical Care Medicine, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, China.
Aim And Objective: Magnoliae Flos (Chinese name: Xin-Yi) and Xanthii Fructus (Chinese name: Cang-Er-Zi) are Chinese herbal medicines and have been used to treat allergic rhinitis (AR). However, the therapeutic effect, active ingredients, and probable processes of a compound of Magnoliae Flos and Xanthii Fructus in the form of essential oils (CMFXFEO) in treating AR have not been reported. This study aims to determine the efficacy of the CMFXFEO on ovalbumin (OVA)-induced AR in a rat model and to use network pharmacology and molecular docking to reveal the hub genes, biological functions, and signaling pathways of CMFXFEO against AR.
