Mucosal tolerance is a meanwhile well-accepted phenomenon, which was initially referred to as oral tolerance , because it was first recognized after feeding antigen [14], As immunological unresponsiveness - characterized by a refractory or diminished capability to develop an immune response upon systemic reexposure to the specific antigen - can also be achieved after antigen administration via the nasal, inhalative, rectal or genital route, it is now more broadly referred to as mucosal tolerance.
