Abstract

BACKGROUND: Microbial products are of central interest in the modulation of allergic propensity.OBJECTIVE: We sought to explore whether allergic children show differences in microbial Toll-like receptor (TLR)-mediated responses over their first 5 years of life.METHODS: Mononuclear cells isolated fro...

Cytokine production was measured by using Luminex multiplexing technology.RESULTS: Nonallergic children show progressive and significant age-related increases in innate cytokine responses (IL-1&#x3B2;, IL-6, TNF-&#x3B1;, and IL-10) to virtually all TLR ligands.
