Plasmodium berghei infection ameliorates atopic dermatitis‐like skin lesions in NC/Nga mice
ConclusionsWe have experimentally demonstrated for the first time that malarial infections ameliorated AD‐like skin lesions in a mouse model of AD. Our study could explain in part the mechanism of the “hygiene hypothesis,” which states that parasitic infections can inhibit the development of allergic diseases.This article is protected by copyright.

Extracellular DNA traps in allergic, infectious, and autoimmune diseases
Abstract Extracellular DNA traps are part of the innate immune response and are seen with many infectious, allergic, and autoimmune diseases. They can be generated by several different leukocytes, including neutrophils, eosinophils, and monocytes, as well as mast cells. Here, we review the composition of these extracellular DNA‐containing structures as well as potential mechanisms for their production and function. In general, extracellular DNA traps have been described as binding to and killing pathogens, particularly bacteria, fungi, but also parasites. On the other hand, it is possible that DNA traps contribute to imm...
