Cross-reactive MHC class I T cell epitopes may dictate heterologous immune responses between respiratory viruses and food allergens
Abstract Respiratory virus infections play a major role in asthma, while there is a close correlation between asthma and food allergy. We hypothesized that T cell-mediated heterologous immunity may induce asthma symptoms among sensitized individuals and used two independent in silico pipelines for t...
