          Abstract

          Asthma and allergic rhinitis are chronic inflammatory diseases of the conducting nasal airway. Traditional Chinese medicine has long been used for supplemental therapy of allergic diseases, especially asthma and allergic rhinitis. We previously reported the effects of a mixed herbal formula in patients with allergic rhinitis. However, the immune-modulatory mechanism underlying the effects of herbal medicine for the treatment of allergic diseases remains unclear.
