The Endogenous Th17 Response in NO
Severe, glucocorticoid-resistant asthma comprises 5-7% of patients with asthma. IL-17 is a biomarker of severe asthma, and the adoptive transfer of Th17 cells in mice is sufficient to induce glucocorticoid-resistant allergic airway disease.

Bronchial hyperresponsiveness decreases through childhood [PDF]
Limited knowledge exists about development of bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) through adolescence. We aimed to assess changes in and risk factors for BHR in adolescence. From a Norwegian birth cohort 517 subjects underwent clinical examinations, structured interviews and methacholine challenges at age 10 and 16. BHR was divided into four categories:

Bronchial Hyper-responsiveness in Post-tubercular Patients: A Case-control Study [PDF]
Introduction: Bronchial hyper-responsiveness is the manifestation of excessive bronchoconstriction in response to diverse types of stimuli both physical and chemical. It is the most characteristic feature of bronchial asthma; it also occurs in a spectrum
