Differences in susceptibility to German cockroach frass and its associated proteases in induced allergic inflammation in mice

BACKGROUND: Cockroach exposure is a major risk factor for the development of asthma. Inhalation of fecal remnants (frass) is the likely sensitizing agent; however isolated frass has not been tested for its ability to induce experimental asthma in mice. METHODS: Mice (Balb/c or C57Bl/6) were sensitiz...
