[0191] Example 1 Activation of lung innate immunity to regulate immune response in asthma

[0192] In the present study, the inventors investigated the possible role of inducible innate resistance in the regulation of the immune response in asthma using an experimental mouse model of asthma. Analysis of serum immunoglobulins and differential cell counts of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid revealed that aerosol administration of O / P with OVA significantly reduced OVA-specific IgE levels as well as eosinophils in BAL. In contrast, the inventors observed an increase in serum IgG2a levels, a marker of Th1 immunity. Taken together, our findings suggest that activation of lung innate immunity with O / P in combination with specific antigens can switch allergic to non-allergic immune responses.

[0193] A. Results

[0194] Nebulized OVA-O / P decreased total IgE serum levels and OVA-IgE serum levels. Preliminary studies with aerosolized O / P have demonstrated a robust defense respons...

Abstract

Embodiments are directed to methods and compositions for modulating an immune response. In certain aspects the immune response is a type I hypersensitivity response. In particular aspects the subjecthas allergic asthma or allergic rhinitis. Using a conventional experimental asthma mouse model (BALB / c), the inventors demonstrate that aerosol administration of TLR agonists, in particular a combination of TLR2 / 6 and TLR9 agonist (e.g., TLR9 oligonucleotide agonist / PAM2CSK4) along with an antigen (e.g., ovalbumin (OVA)) suppresses the immune response as exemplified by the production of antigen-specific IgE and decreases the number of airway eosinophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BAL) in response to intra-peritoneal (IP) immunization with an antigen mixed with alum.
