Immunomodulatory effects of Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 on allergic airway inflammation in a mouse model.
<h4>Background</h4>Hygiene hypothesis demonstrates that the lack of microbial exposure would promote the development of allergic airway disease (AAD). Therefore, the gut microbiota, including Escherichia coli (E. coli), would probably offer a potential strategy for AAD.<h4>Objectiv...
