Studies of the role played by the innate immune system in the induction of Th2 responses
have begun to unravel the cellular and molecular mechanisms potentially underlying the
pathogenesis of allergic asthma. Further study in this area may lead to the discovery of new
therapeutics for the treatment of allergic disease.
