Abstract

RATIONALE: Damp/moldy environments have been associated with asthma exacerbation, but mold's role in allergic asthma induction is less clear. Recently, certain molds (Group 1) were associated with asthmatics' water-damaged homes in Cleveland, while others were found more universally (Group 2). Asthma exacerbations were lower in remediated homes compared to non-remediated homes. The study objective was to compare the allergy induction potential of these molds to house dust mite (HDM) in our mouse allergy/asthma model.
