Asthma, rhinitis, and atopic dermatitis (AD) are interrelated clinical phenotypes that partly overlap in the human interactome. The concept of "one-airway-one-disease," coined over 20 years ago, is a simplistic approach links between upper- lower-airway allergic diseases. With new data, it time to reassess concept. This article reviews (i) observations led Allergic Rhinitis its Impact on Asthma (ARIA), (ii) insights into polysensitization multimorbidity, (iii) advances mHealth for novel phenotype definitions, (iv) confirmation canonical epidemiologic studies, (v) genomic findings, (vi) treatment approaches, (vii) concepts onset rhinitis multimorbidity. One recent concept, bringing together diseases with skin, gut, neuropsychiatric multimorbidities, "Epithelial Barrier Hypothesis." review determined "one-airway-one-disease" does not always hold true several disease can be defined. These include an extreme "allergic" (asthma) combining asthma, conjunctivitis. alone asthma multimorbidity represent two distinct following differences: transcriptomic background (Toll-Like Receptors IL-17 as local disease; IL-33 IL-5 non-allergic systemic disease), allergen sensitization patterns (mono- or pauci-sensitization versus polysensitization), severity symptoms, response. In conclusion, (local disease) (systemic should considered diseases, possibly modulated by microbiome, may model understanding epidemics chronic autoimmune

Abstract Alterations in the gut microbiome, including diet-driven changes, are linked to rising prevalence of food allergy. However, little is known about how specific bacteria trigger breakdown oral tolerance. Here we show that depriving specific-pathogen-free mice dietary fibre leads a microbiota signature with increases mucin-degrading bacterium Akkermansia muciniphila . This associated intestinal barrier dysfunction, increased expression type 1 and 2 cytokines IgE-coated commensals colon, which result an exacerbated allergic reaction allergens, ovalbumin peanut. To demonstrate causal role A. , employed tractable synthetic human gnotobiotic mice. The presence within microbiota, combined deprivation, resulted stronger anti-commensal IgE coating innate type-2 immune responses, worsened symptoms Our study provides important insights into microbes can regulate pathways allergy diet-dependent manner.
