Although allergic sensitization of the respiratory tract induced by chemicals is not as common as skin sensitization, it is nevertheless an important occupational health issue. Respiratory allergy to chemicals, characterized typically by rhinitis and

Background With increasing age the immune system shows functional decline. In the skin this is associated with an increased incidence of epidermal malignancies and infections. Epidermal Langerhans cells (LCs) act as sentinels of the immune system, re

The skin is an immunologically active tissue; the integrated skin immune system comprises epidermal Langerhans cells (LC), dermal dendritic cells (DC), tissue macrophages, mast cells, and T lymphocytes in transit. Cutaneous immune function is orchest

One explanation for the striking increase in atopic disease in developed countries over the last 50 years has been the 'Hygiene Hypothesis'; a reduced exposure to pathogenic microorganisms. We have postulated previously that oral and cutaneous exposu

With the increasing interest in novel foods derived from transgenic crop plants, there is a growing need for the development of approaches for the characterization of the allergenic potential of proteins. Whereas immunogenicity is a common property o

During the last 10 years there have been several attempts to define criteria for the integration of experimental and clinical data into schemes that can be used for the designation of chemicals as skin sensitizers (and in some instances respiratory a

The extent of epithelial injury in asthma is reflected by expression of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), which is increased in proportion to disease severity and is corticosteroid refractory. Although the EGFR is involved in epithelial gr

The local lymph node assay (LLNA) was developed originally as a method for the identification of chemicals that have the potential to cause skin sensitization and allergic contact dermatitis. The assay is based on an understanding that the acquisitio

Langerhans cells (LCs) play essential roles in the initiation and regulation of cutaneous immune responses mediated through their successful migration from the epidermis to draining lymph nodes while carrying antigen. Tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alp

The mouse local lymph node assay (LLNA) is currently used for the prospective identification of chemicals that have the potential to cause skin sensitization and allergic contact dermatitis. In this respect, the assay has been fully and formally eval
