Abstract

In this thesis we have investigated how to innovate allergen immunotherapy (AIT) strategies centered around dendritic cells (DCs) as orchestrators of adaptive immune responses. To that end, we characterized the immunological effects of allergens on DCs and investigated novel therapy candidates. Our data indicate that neither the major HDM allergens Der p 1 and Der p 2, nor the major
