Environmental allergens such as house dust mites (HDM) often contain microbial substances that activate innate immune responses to regulate allergic inflammation. The protocol presented here demonstrates the identification of dsRNA species in HDM allergens and characterization of their immunogenic activities in modulating eosinophilic lung inflammation.
