There has been a sharp rise in allergic asthma and asthma-related deaths in the developed world; in contrast to many childhood illnesses that have been reduced or eliminated. The hygiene hypothesis proposes that excessively sanitary conditions early in life result in autoimmune and allergic phenomena because of a failure of the immune system to receive proper microbial stimulation during development. We demonstrate that antibodies generated against conserved bacterial polysaccharides are reactive with and dampen the immune response against chitin and Aspergillus fumigatus. A reduction in antigen uptake, cell influx, cell-activation, and cytokine production occurred in the presence of anti-polysaccharide antibodies, resulting in a striking decrease in the severity of allergic airway disease in mice. Overall, our results suggest that antigen exposure during the neonatal period, derived from environmental sources, self-antigens, or vaccination, have dramatic effects on the adult antibody response and modify the development of allergic airway disease.
