Bronchial patency in dust diseases
Kazan medical journal, 2022 Currently, the role of bronchospasm in the development of respiratory insufficiency in pulmonary patients has been fully proven [1, 4, 8, 9, etc.]. The severity of bronchospasm is usually determined using a pneumotachometer of the power (maximum volumetric velocity) of the air jet during exhalation [3, 4, 10, 12).

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study aims to evaluate the impact of the potassium channel KCNJ2 on asthma development. KCNJ2 promotes NLRP3 inflammasome activation through both Ca2+ influx and K+ efflux in airway epithelial cells, which drives allergic airway inflammation and remodeling, suggesting a promising therapeutic target for asthma.

Mechanisms altering airway smooth muscle cell Ca(2+) homeostasis in two asthma models [PDF]
, 2008 Background: Asthma is characterized by airway remodeling, altered mucus production and airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) contraction causing extensive airway narrowing. In particular, alterations of ASMC contractility seem to be of crucial importance. The

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Cer24:1 levels are reduced in neutrophilic asthma and inversely correlate with disease severity and airway neutrophilia. Restoring Cer24:1 suppresses pathogenic Th17 differentiation by engaging EP2 on CD4+ T cells, thereby dampening the JAK2–STAT3–RORγt axis and reducing IL‐17 production.

CX3CR1 Polymorphisms are associated with atopy but not asthma in German children [PDF]
, 2007 Chemokines and their receptors are involved in many aspects of immunity. Chemokine CX3CL1, acting via its receptor CX3CR1, regulates monocyte migration and macrophage differentiation as well as T cell-dependent inflammation.
