Role of bacillus Calmette-Guérin as an immunomodulator for the prevention and treatment of allergy and asthma.

Current opinion in allergy and clinical immunology - 1 Dec 2005

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: As an essential part of the hygiene hypothesis, the association between exposure to mycobacterial components and the prevention, development and severity of atopic diseases has not been fully understood. The current status on the causal-effect link of this relationship and the potential use of mycobacterial adjuvants as a preventive or disease-modifying modality in allergic diseases is reviewed...
