The ability of combustion products, such as diesel exhaust particles (DEPs), to modulate the immune system has now been firmly established. DEPs can synergize with allergen at the human upper respiratory mucosa to enhance allergen-specific IgE production, initiate a T(H)2 cytokine environment, and even promote primary allergic sensitization. Experiments suggest that these effects result from the initial activation of mast cells to produce IL-4.
