Role for Complement C5 in Eosinophilic Inflammation of Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, Volume 81, Issue 5, Page 1571-1586, May 2026.
Complement activation module, particularly C5, is positively associated with eosinophilic inflammation in severe asthma cohorts. Elevated C5 expression correlates with poor lung function improvement and persistent eosinophilic inflammation. Mouse model studies confirm that C5 exacerbates eosinophilic inflammation, highlighting its potential as a ...

Characterization of Human Group 9 Innate Lymphoid Cells in Response to Allergen Immunotherapy in Patients With Allergic Rhinitis

open access: yesAllergy, Volume 81, Issue 5, Page 1650-1664, May 2026.
We aimed to report the existence and profile of group 9 innate lymphoid cells (ILC9s). Overall, ILC9 proportions in AR patients show differences compared to healthy subjects and responder SCIT patients. IL‐9 expression decreases after siRNA inhibition of Bach2 suggesting Bach2 could display as a transcription factor of ILC9.

Protectin D1 and maresin 1 attenuate airway hyperreactivity induced by IL‐13 in human isolated small bronchi

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 9, Page 2049-2060, May 2026.
Background and Purpose Interleukin (IL)‐13 is implicated in airway hyperreactivity (AHR), a key feature of asthma. We explored the potential anti‐AHR activity of selected specialised pro‐resolving mediators (SPMs) in IL‐13‐induced AHR models, using human bronchial smooth muscle cells (BSMCs) and human isolated bronchi.

Tidal breathing affects airway responsiveness to methacholine. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Asthma is characterized by increased airway responsiveness and airway inflammation. Airway hyperresponsiveness may be caused by increased airway smooth muscle contractility or by a decrease in the mechanical load that opposes airway smooth muscle ...

The effect of inhaled dry salt on pulmonary mucociliary clearance in obstructive lung disease: A randomised, placebo‐controlled, crossover study

open access: yesClinical Physiology and Functional Imaging, Volume 46, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Background Inhaled saline may improve mucus transport in respiratory diseases, for example, cystic fibrosis. This randomised, placebo‐controlled, crossover study examined the effect of inhaled dry NaCl on mucociliary clearance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods Twenty‐five patients with GOLD stage I‐III COPD

Asthma: where is it going?

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2008
Asthma is characterized by reversible airway obstruction, airway hyperresponsiveness, and airway inflammation. Although our understanding of its pathophysiological mechanisms continues to evolve, the relative contributions of airway hyperresponsiveness ...
