Research Abstract |
Nasopharynx and nasal mucosa are located at the forefront of the host defense against foreign pathogens, which plays an important role in acquired immunity and innate immunity. To elucidate the immune system of allergy infection, we analyzed the mechanism of epithelial barrier function and antigen presentation in the nasal epithelium of human nasopharyngeal epithelium. In addition, we made a research on the interaction of the oral mucosal epithelium and dendritic cells and M cells with an important role in the immune response and effective immune mechanisms of sublingual immunotherapy.
