A preceding peanut sensitization amplifies allergic asthma accompanied by enhanced Th2/Th17 response in PBMC‐engrafted humanized mice. This murine model could be instrumental to further elucidate the mechanisms of interplay between different primary sensitizations, which is also suitable for investigating existing drugs, novel pharmacologic and immunologic intervention for treatment of allergic diseases.
