Effects of Corni fructus on ovalbumin-induced airway inflammation and airway hyper-responsiveness in a mouse model of allergic asthma

Journal of Inflammation, 2012
Background Allergic asthma is a chronic inflammatory lung disease that is characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) to allergens, airway oedema, increased mucus secretion, excess production of T helper-2 (Th2) cytokines, and eosinophil ...

BMI can influence adult males' and females' airway hyperresponsiveness differently [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Epidemiological data indicate that obesity is a risk factor for asthma, but scientific literature is still debating the association between changes in body mass index (BMI) and airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR).

Ozone Inhalation Attenuated the Effects of Budesonide on Aspergillus fumigatus-Induced Airway Inflammation and Hyperreactivity in Mice. [PDF]

, 2019
Inhaled glucocorticoids form the mainstay of asthma treatment because of their anti-inflammatory effects in the lung. Exposure to the air pollutant ozone (O3) exacerbates chronic airways disease.

気管支喘息に対する複合温泉療法の作用機序 3.気道炎症反応との関連 [PDF]

, 1996
The degree and characteristic of airway inflammation were evaluated by the proportions of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cells. Clinical asthma types such as Ia. simple bronchoconstriction, Ib. bronchoconstriction + hypersecretion, and Ⅱ.

New Role of Adult Lung c-kit+ Cells in a Mouse Model of Airway Hyperresponsiveness

Mediators of Inflammation, 2016
Structural changes contribute to airway hyperresponsiveness and airflow obstruction in asthma. Emerging evidence points to the involvement of c-kit+ cells in lung homeostasis, although their potential role in asthma is unknown.

Airway hyperresponsiveness and airway inflammation in elite swimmers

The Clinical Respiratory Journal, 2008
AbstractIntroduction:  The prevalence of respiratory symptoms and airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) is high in elite athletes; swimmers have one of the highest prevalences. No consensus exists on what airway challenge to use when identifying AHR in elite athletes.

ITGA5 as a Dual Regulator of Epithelial‐Mesenchymal Transition and Epithelial Cell Anoikis Resistance: Functional Validation and Drug Prediction

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Proteomics and functional validation reveal ITGA5 as a dual promoter of epithelial‐mesenchymal transition and anoikis resistance in human bronchial epithelium: targeting ITGA5 represents a novel therapeutic strategy for asthma airway remodelling. ABSTRACT Airway remodelling is a major contributor to persistent airflow limitation and irreversible lung ...
