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

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]
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]
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.

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
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.

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]
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.
