Pretreatment with New Zealand blackcurrant anthocyanins nonsignificantly reduced TNF‐α–induced PAI‐1 release in bronchial epithelial cells. The small sample size may have influenced the lack of statistical significance. This study provides preliminary evidence of possible effects of NZBC anthocyanins on PAI‐1 secretion but warrants further extensive ...

Genetic Contribution to Asthma Informs Acute Chest Syndrome Pathophysiology and Risk Stratification
ABSTRACT Acute chest syndrome (ACS) is a severe complication of sickle cell disease (SCD) occurring in ~50% of patients, some presenting frequent episodes. We lack tools to identify patients at high risk of ACS occurrence or frequent episodes. Epidemiological studies have found an association between asthma and ACS, but whether this link is causal is ...

The generation of leukobienes B4 (LTB4) and C4 (LTC4) and bronchial hyperresponsiveness in patients with asthma and spa therapy [PDF]
Changes in the generation of leukotrienes B4 (LTB4) and C4 (LTC4) by leucocytes after spa therapy were examined in 30 patients with asthma. 1. The efficacy of spa therapy was marked in 8 (26.7%), and moderate in 16 (53.3%) of 30 patients with asthma ...
