Inflammatory Responses to Alternaria in Airway Epithelial Cells: Cytokine Expression Pattern and the Role of Proteases

Allergic sensitivity to the aeroallergen, Alternaria, has been linked to the development and persistence of asthma. Sensitivity to an allergen, like Alternaria, is classically thought to be regulated via an IgE mediated pathway and IgE itself has been shown to be associated with asthma. This link be...
