To provide an overview on the role of gut mucosal immunity in the development of tolerance against allergy to food.
The gastrointestinal tract, through innate and specific immunologic factors, acts as a defense against ingested antigens. In addition to the mucous membrane integrity and digestion, numerous specific immunologic cells and mediators orchestrate such defensive mechanisms. In case of food antigens, the outcome is usually in favor of tolerance. Defects in that barrier, however, can lead to the development of aberrant immunologic responses, including hypersensitivity reactions.
The prevailing evidence is that healthy mucosal immunity plus appropriate feeding regimen during early infancy are in favor of food tolerance. However, in addition to genetic predisposition, development of allergy is facilitated by defects in the gut barrier (immune or nonimmune) and the food allergen load.
探讨肠黏膜免疫在食物过敏耐受中的作用。
胃肠道通过固有和特异免疫因素发挥作用，抵御摄入的抗原。除了黏膜完整性和消化，许多特异免疫细胞和介质也协调这种防御机制。在食物抗原的情况下，结果通常有利于耐受。然而，这种屏障的缺陷可导致异常免疫反应的发展，包括过敏反应。
目前的证据表明，健康的黏膜免疫加上婴儿早期的适当喂养方式有利于食物耐受。然而，除了遗传易感性，肠道屏障（免疫或非免疫）和食物过敏原负荷的缺陷也促进了过敏的发展。
