Altered immunity and dendritic cell activity in the periphery of mice after long-term engraftment with bone marrow from ultraviolet-irradiated miceTo investigate the immune capabilities of peripheral tissue DCs generated in vivo from the BM of UV-irradiated mice, chimeric mice were established.

Toward homeostasis: Regulatory dendritic cells from the bone marrow of mice with inflammationInflammatory mediators from peripheral tissues may control dendritic cell (DC) development in the bone marrow.

Restricted aeroallergen access to airway mucosal dendritic cells in vivo limits allergen-specificChronic innocuous aeroallergen exposure attenuates CD4+ T cell-mediated airways hyperresponsiveness in mice; however, the mechanism(s) remain unclear
Research
Epithelial-dendritic cell interactions in allergic disordersAirway epithelial cells act through multiple mechanisms to function as an important component of the pulmonary defence strategy that is crucial...

Interactions between innate and adaptive immunity in asthma pathogenesis: new perspectives from studies on acute exacerbationsAtopic asthma, which is at its highest prevalence during childhood/young adulthood, represents the main focus of this review.
Research
The role of dendritic cells and regulatory T cells in the regulation of allergic asthmaAirways hyperresponsiveness (AHR) is one of the major clinical features of allergic airways disease including allergic asthma

Distinguishing benign from pathologic TH2 immunity in atopic childrenIn addition to its role in blocking TH2 effector activation in the late-phase allergic response, IL-10 is a known IgG1 switch factor

Persistent and compartmentalised disruption of dendritic cell subpopulations in the lung following influenza A virus infectionImmunological homeostasis in the respiratory tract is thought to require balanced interactions between networks of dendritic cell (DC) subsets in lung...
