In utero ultrafine particulate matter exposure causes offspring pulmonary immunosuppression. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Early life exposure to fine particulate matter (PM) in air is associated with infant respiratory disease and childhood asthma, but limited epidemiological data exist concerning the impacts of ultrafine particles (UFPs) on the etiology of childhood ...

Nasal Airway Transcriptome Reflects Selected Asthma‐Associated Gene Signatures in the Lower Airways

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Seven genes and two gene modules were consistently associated with asthma in both airway compartments in ARMS and were validated in ATLANTIS. The two modules reflected IL‐13 related inflammation and mast cell activity, respectively. Nasal gene signatures provide a non‐invasive proxy for selected bronchial asthma‐associated gene signatures.

Bone marrow cell derived arginase I is the major source of allergen-induced lung arginase but is not required for airway hyperresponsiveness, remodeling and lung inflammatory responses in mice

open access: yesBMC Immunology, 2009
Background Arginase is significantly upregulated in the lungs in murine models of asthma, as well as in human asthma, but its role in allergic airway inflammation has not been fully elucidated in mice.

Endogenous IL-33 and Its Autoamplification of IL-33/ST2 Pathway Play an Important Role in Asthma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
IL-33 and its receptor ST2 are contributing factors to airway inflammation and asthma exacerbation. The IL-33/ST2 signaling pathway is involved in both the onset and the acute exacerbations of asthma.

Dual effects of leptin in perioperative gas exchange of morbidly obese patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Leptin has shown positive effects on respiratory function in experimental settings. The role of leptin on perioperative respiratory function in morbidly obese patients has not been established.

Resolving Endoplasmic Reticulum‐Protein Misfolding Restores Corticosteroid Sensitivity in Experimental Models of Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
This study investigates the role of ER stress in steroid resistance in severe asthma. Results from advanced 3D models of human bronchial epithelial cells, steroid‐resistant severe asthma mouse models, and human severe asthma sputum samples show that treatment with ICS in combination with the ER stress inhibitor 4‐PBA significantly enhances steroid ...

Content of Th17 related and Th2 cytokines in asthma patients with cold airway hyperresponsiveness

open access: yesМедицинская иммунология
The phenomenon of cold airway hyperresponsiveness is rather common among patients with bronchial asthma. Possible participation of immune mechanisms in its occurence is scarcely studied.

A Study of the Usefulness of Anti-inflammatory Treatment for Mild Intermittent Asthma (Step 1): Budesonide vs. Montelukast

open access: yesAllergology International, 2005
Background: Early intervention in adult asthma has been evaluated mostly with regard to symptoms, respiratory function and airway hyperresponsiveness, and has rarely been evaluated with regard to airway inflammation.

Airway responses and inflammation in subjects with asthma after four days of repeated high-single-dose allergen challenge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Both standard and low-dose allergen provocations are an established tool in asthma research to improve our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanism of allergic asthma.
