Recent experimental evidence has demonstrated in an asthma-induced model in rats, that administering V. vinifera dried fruits inhibited the recruitment of inflammatory cytokines (IL)-4, IL-5, IL-1β, tumour necrosis factor, as well as IgE levels, and circulating levels of eosinophils in blood/serum and broncho-alveolar fluid [24]. This evidence concerns the gene IGHE and asthma.
