Neural Pathways in Allergic Inflammation

Abstract EN

Allergy is on the rise worldwide.

Asthma, food allergy, dermatitis, and systemic anaphylaxis are amongst the most common allergic diseases.

The association between allergy and altered behavior patterns has long been recognized.

The molecular and cellular pathways in the bidirectional interactions of nervous and immune systems are now starting to be elucidated.

In this paper, we outline the consequences of allergic diseases, especially food allergy and asthma, on behavior and neural activity and on the neural modulation of allergic responses.
