Long Non‐Coding RNA, Like NEAT1 and MALAT1, in Asthma: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential
Long non‐coding RNA, like NEAT1 and MALAT1, is emerging as a regulator of asthma‐related inflammation, airway remodelling, viral responses and cell death pathways, and are promising targets for future therapeutics. ABSTRACT Asthma affects millions worldwide. Long non‐coding RNA (lncRNA) are emerging as important factors in the pathophysiology of asthma

Bronchial hyperresponsiveness and exposure in pig farmers [PDF]
To study the effect of exposure on bronchial responsiveness in pig farmers.A group of 196 pig farmers were tested for lung function and bronchial responsiveness to histamine in the summer of 1992. To achieve sufficient contrast in respiratory morbidity and exposure, 96 of the farmers were selected because they had chronic respiratory symptoms and the ...

Oral Health, Periodontitis, and Respiratory Diseases: Biological Pathways
This narrative review aims to provide a comprehensive update on the potential mechanisms by which poor oral health and periodontitis impact lung health, focusing on pneumonia, COPD, and asthma. ABSTRACT Poor oral hygiene and periodontitis influence lung diseases such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), COVID‐19, and asthma.

Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) was evaluated across a radiant energy range (1–7.5 J) in a murine model of chronic ovalbumin‐induced asthma to identify the optimal therapeutic dose. PBMT attenuated airway inflammation and remodelling, suppressed Th2 cytokines, and enhanced regulatory immune responses, highlighting a dose‐dependent immunomodulatory ...

Protective Role of Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 in Allergic Bronchial Asthma
Inflammation, reversible obstruction, and hyperresponsiveness of the airways are characteristic findings of bronchial asthma. Several evidence has demonstrated the involvement of matrix metalloproteinase-2 in allergic airway inflammation.

ABSTRACT Airway obstruction and severe hypoxemia directly attributable to an ETT cuff malformation are exceedingly rare. It emphasizes that pre‐use cuff inspection should not be limited to leak testing but should also include an assessment of the cuff's morphological integrity.

Remodelling and Inflammation in Bronchial Asthma
Chronic stable asthma is characterized by inflammation of the airway wall, with abnormal accumulation of basophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes, mast cells, macrophages, dendritic cells and myofibroblasts.
