Distinct modulation of allergic T cell responses by subcutaneous vs. sublingual allergen‐specific immunotherapy

Abstract

The most dominant immunological changes on a cellular level were a decrease in IL-5 in the SCIT group and a significant, transient increase of IL-10 observed after 10 months of treatment in both treated groups. The distinct routes of AIT administration may induce different immunomodulatory mechanisms at the cellular level.
