- Identify the key cytokines secreted by lung epithelial cells in response to infections and the role of these cytokines in priming of the allergic condition
- Describe the role of type I and III interferons in the suppression of Th2 and Th17 responses and the inhibition of interferon secretion by allergic stimulation through the high affinity IgE Fc receptor
- Discuss how TLR ligands, such as CpG oligonucleotides, are being used to mediate allergic suppression through the induction of cross-regulatory cytokines
