Western Australia has joined a major international study that could significantly change the treatment of asthma in children.
This study is designed to identify the specific unique immune cell response that occurs in these children with recurrent disease.
Studies in Europe show exposure of pregnant women to high levels of microbial products stimulate immune function maturation in their offspring
The study aims to identify the mechanism for this so that this knowledge can be used to better treat asthma and allergies in both males and females.
This project investigates how cells of the immune system respond to substances to cause allergies to help develop new treatments.
A hallmark of atopic asthma is development of chronic airways hyper-responsiveness (AHR) that persists in the face of ongoing exposure to perennial...
Prospective birth cohort studies tracking asthma initiation and consolidation in community cohorts have identified viral infections occurring against a...
The aim of this study was to explore associations between severe respiratory infections and atopy in early childhood with persisting wheeze and asthma.
Information is accumulating which implicates airway inflammation resulting from respiratory viral infections, acting against a background of atopy.
