KCNJ2 is Required for NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation That Drives Allergic Airway Inflammation and Remodeling [PDF]

Advanced Science
Airway inflammation and remodeling are cardinal features of asthma pathogenesis. Genome‐wide association studies have shown that several SNPs of KCNJ2, a member of the inwardly rectifying potassium channel family, are associated with asthma in patients ...

ETB receptor deficiency amplifies allergic airway inflammation and hyperresponsiveness [PDF]

ERJ Open Research
Background Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a proinflammatory mediator that plays a crucial role in regulating airway tone by activating G protein-coupled endothelin receptors A (ETA) and B (ETB).

Mucosal cryobiopsies: a new method for studying airway pathology in asthma

ERJ Open Research, 2022
Background In vivo studies of airway pathology in obstructive lung disease are limited by poor quality of specimens obtained with forceps. Obtainment of cryobiopsies has increased diagnostic yield in cancer and interstitial lung disease but has not been ...

Dynamically upregulated mast cell CPA3 patterns in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundThe mast cell-specific metalloprotease CPA3 has been given important roles in lung tissue homeostasis and disease pathogenesis. However, the dynamics and spatial distribution of mast cell CPA3 expression in lung diseases remain unknown ...

Effects of qufeng xuanfei formula in guinea pig model of airway hyperergy

Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2023
This work aimed to clarify the potential regulating effects of Qufeng Xuanfei formula (QFXF) on airway neurogenic inflammation and its underlying target signal pathway. Guinea pig model of airway hyperergy (AHR) was used.

Airway Inflammation and Airway Hyperresponsiveness [PDF]

, 2021
Airway inflammation is a complex inflammatory process of airways involving the contribution of various cells, recruited and activated in asthmatic conditions, and the mediators released by them. However, major components contributing to this inflammation are eosinophils, mast cells, and lymphocytes.

Type II alveolar epithelial cell aryl hydrocarbon receptor protects against allergic airway inflammation through controlling cell autophagy

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
RationaleAryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a ligand-activated transcription factor, has been considered as an important regulator for immune diseases. We have previously shown that AhR protects against allergic airway inflammation.

Airway epithelial STAT3 inhibits allergic inflammation via upregulation of stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1

Allergology International, 2022
Background: Airway epithelial cells (AECs) play a crucial role in the induction and development of allergic inflammation through the development and activation of immune cells, including Th2 cells and ILC2s.
