CD79A and allergic disease: Intestinal flora composition plays an important role in the development of allergic diseases and airway inflammation because of its potential effects on TH1-type immunity, generation of TGF, and IgA production.[27] Asthma is characterized by airway inflammation and hyper-responsiveness.[28] Probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics were effective in suppressing both allergic and autoimmune responses, reducing allergic symptoms, and inhibiting allergic airway response in murine models of acute airway inflammation.[29–33]
