Abstract In addition to its canonical function of protection from pathogens, the immune system can also alter behaviour 1,2 . The scope and mechanisms behavioural modifications by are not yet well understood. Here, using mouse models food allergy, we show that allergic sensitization drives antigen-specific avoidance behaviour. Allergen ingestion activates brain areas involved in response aversive stimuli, including nucleus tractus solitarius, parabrachial central amygdala. requires...

ABSTRACT In addition to its canonical function in protecting from pathogens, the immune system can also promote behavioural alterations 1–3 . The scope and mechanisms of modifications by are not yet well understood. Using a mouse food allergy model, here we show that allergic sensitization drives antigen-specific aversion. Allergen ingestion activates brain areas involved response aversive stimuli, including nucleus tractus solitarius, parabrachial nucleus, central amygdala. Food aversion...
