Methotrexate therapy in asthma increases T cell susceptibility to corticosteroid inhibitionC J Corrigan

Role of cysteinyl leukotrienes in human allergen-specific Th2 responses induced by granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factorA Faith
Asthma UK and MRC, Centre in Allergic Mechanisms of Asthma, King s College London, and Department of Asthma, Allergy and Respiratory Science, Guy s Hospital, London, UK
Allergy 63:168-75. 2008..We hypothesized that exposure of AM and monocytes from atopic asthmatic patients to GM-CSF would enhance their antigen presenting function, and investigated putative mechanisms for this effect...
Efficacy and safety of preseasonal-specific immunotherapy with an aluminium-adsorbed six-grass pollen allergoidC J Corrigan
Guy's, King's and St Thomas's School of Medicine, London, UK
Allergy 60:801-7. 2005..The allergoid was well tolerated. CONCLUSIONS: The grass pollen allergoid was shown to be safe and clinically efficacious in the management of hay fever with or without asthma (GINA I or II)...
