Allergic reactions flare in the gut after cuts to the skin, mouse research shows Damage done to the skin can increase the risk of an allergic reaction in other organs.

Great commentary on recent work from FASI PI, Andrew Wang:

Skin damage signals mediate allergic sensitization to spatially unlinked antigen Skin injury releases damage-encoded systemic signals that can initiate immunity to novel antigens introduced at distal barrier sites.

New research from FASI PI Dr. Andrew Wang shows that skin inflammation can send danger signals that prime the immune system—triggering allergic reactions later in the gut.

Functional diversification of dietary plant small molecules by the gut microbiome Plants are composed of diverse secondary metabolites. Here, we discover members of the human gut microbiome that have evolved enzymes to metabolize specific dietary phenolic small molecules that activ...

In Cell, FASI investigator Dr. Seth Rakoff-Nahoum shows how gut microbes break down plant compounds to reduce inflammation—insights with big implications for gut health & food allergies.

The nervous and immune systems talk—and decide if food is friend or foe.

Getting this moment wrong triggers allergies.

Understanding it could help stop reactions before they start.
