IL-12 is a Th1-inducing cytokine and known to be induced by some food factors. This function of such foods is expected to be applied for antiallergic materials. However, the influence of IL-12 on the immune responses has not been fully investigated. Oral tolerance is an immunologically unresponsive state induced by orally administered food antigens. Although a failure in the induction of oral tolerance would result in food allergy, the mechanisms for the induction and abrogation of oral tolerance have not been clarified. IL-12 induced by food factors may also affect the induction of oral tolerance. In this study we examined the effect of the oral administration of IL-12 on the induction and maintenance of oral tolerance.
