Jakob Stokholm, læge, ph.d. Har fået tildelt Det Frie Forskningsråds Forskertalenpris, Sapere Aude, til sit projekt omkring betydningen af tarmens komplekse samfund af bakterier (mikrobiomet) i det tidlige liv for senere udvikling af astma, allergi og eksem. Jakob udfører projektet hos en af verdens førende forskere indenfor det humane mikrobiom, Professor Martin Blaser, ved NewRead more

J Infect Dis. 2016 Apr 15;213(8):1262-70. Wolsk HM, Følsgaard NV, Birch S, Brix S, Hansel TT, Johnston SL, Kebadze T, Chawes BL, Bønnelykke K, Bisgaard H BACKGROUND Bacterial airway colonization is known to alter the airway mucosa immune response in neonates whereas the impact of viruses is unknown. The objective was therefore to examine theRead more
Allergy. 2016 Mar;71(3):323-32. BACKGROUND First-born children are at higher risk of developing a range of immune-mediated diseases. The underlying mechanism of ‘birth-order effects’ on disease risk is largely unknown, but in utero programming of the child’s immune system may play a role. OBJECTIVE We studied the association between birth order and the functional response ofRead more
The grant was awarded to uncover the mechanisms underlying the development of childhood asthma, which today affects approximately 20% of all pre-school-age children in the westernized world. The project is based on extensive data and biological samples from 700 Danish children followed closely since the last part of their mother’s pregnancy in the COPSAC (CopenhagenRead more
Prof. Bisgaard: Birth season has been reported to be a risk factor for several immune-mediated diseases, although the critical season varies depending on the disease. Autoimmune diseases are generally associated with spring births, whereas asthma and allergies are more common among subjects born in fall and winter. Read the interview hereRead more
J Allergy Clin Immunol. 2016 Mar;137(3):844-851.e4. BACKGROUND The term atopic disorder is an early attempt to define specific endotypes of children with asthma, eczema, or both and increased IgE levels. OBJECTIVE We performed a longitudinal analysis of the relevance of the atopic endotype from birth to age 13 years. METHODS Allergic sensitization against 28 inhalant andRead more
Der er stor forskel på nyfødte babyers immunforsvar alt efter, om de er født på en sommerdag eller en efterårsdag, viser nye resultater fra COPSAC i samarbejde med forskere på DTU. Læs artiklen på politiken.dkRead more

J Allergy Clin Immunol. 2016 Apr;137(4):1238-1246.e13. BACKGROUND Birth season has been reported to be a risk factor for several immune-mediated diseases. We hypothesized that this association is mediated by differential changes in neonatal immune phenotype and function with birth season. OBJECTIVE We sought to investigate the influence of season of birth on cord blood immuneRead more
Sygdomme som Crohns, psoriasis og eksem skyldes fejl i de samme gener, viser ny forskning fra COPSAC. Det er nødvendig viden for at kunne behandle sygdommene, siger forsker fra Dansk BørneAstma Center Læs artiklen på videnskab.dkRead more
