AI Article Synopsis
- The link between infectious diseases and allergies is still not well understood.
- Agaronyan et al. (2022) research reveals that the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa can alter the immune system, leading to an increase in type 2 immune responses.
- This immune shift may change how the body reacts to harmless substances, triggering allergic reactions.
Article Abstract
The mechanisms of how infectious diseases contribute to allergy remain unanswered. In this issue of Immunity, Agaronyan et al. (2022) show that Pseudomonas aeruginosa drives immune deviation through induction of type 2 immune responses, resulting in niche remodeling that incites allergic responses to innocuous antigens.

Unlabelled: The genus includes seventeen viral species able to cause rabies, an acute and almost invariably fatal encephalomyelitis of mammals. Rabies virus (RABV), which represents the type species of the genus, is a multi-host pathogen that over the years has undergone multiple events of host-switching, thus occupying several geographical and ecological niches. In contrast, non-RABV lyssaviruses are mainly confined within a single natural host with rare spillover events.

Unlabelled: Avian leukosis virus subgroup J (ALV-J) poses a significant threat to the poultry industry; yet, our understanding of its replication and pathogenic mechanisms is limited. The Ten-Eleven Translocation 2 (TET2) is an indispensable regulatory factor in active DNA demethylation and immune response regulation. This study reports a significant and time-dependent decrease in TET2 levels following ALV-J infection and shows that the reduction of TET2 protein is mediated by the autophagy pathway.

Chickens are a key species in both the manifestation of avian influenza and the potential for zoonotic transmission. Avian influenza virus (AIV) infection in chickens can range from asymptomatic or mild disease with low pathogenic AIVs (LPAIVs) to systemic fatal disease with high pathogenic AIVs (HPAIVs). During AIV infection in chickens, Toll-like receptor 7 and melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 are upregulated to detect the single-stranded ribonucleic acid genomes of AIV, triggering a signaling cascade that produces interferons (IFNs) and pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Verticillium dahliae is highly prone to pathogenic differentiation and influenced by host cotton's resistance. To better understand the mechanisms of this phenomenon, we applied the host selective pressures of resistant and susceptible cotton varieties on V. dahliae strain Vd076 within an artificial cotton Verticillium wilt nursery and greenhouse.

Zika virus (ZIKV) is a flavivirus of significant epidemiological importance, utilizing various transmission strategies and infecting "immune privileged tissues" during both the pre- and postnatal periods. One such transmission method may involve extracellular vesicles (EVs). EVs can travel long distances without degrading, carrying complex messages that trigger different responses in recipient cells.
