Effect of Dupilumab on Airway Inflammation in Patients With Persistent Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
EXPEDITION (NCT02573233) assessed the effects of dupilumab on airway inflammation in patients with persistent asthma using bronchoscopy and gene expression analysis. Dupilumab showed no appreciable effect on inflammatory cell types in biopsies or BALF samples.

Deficiency of Mitochondrial Fatty Acid Enzyme, CPT1A, Underlies Airway Epithelial Barrier Dysfunction in Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial fatty acid enzyme, CPT1A, is deficient in the airway epithelium of severe asthma patients. Restoration of CPT1A expression improved epithelial barrier integrity via increasing mitochondrial respiration and ATP production in airway epithelial cells. Restoration of deficient epithelial CPT1A may represent a new treatment approach for severe

Longer Asthma Duration Is Associated With Elevated Non‐T2 Sputum Biomarkers and Reduced T2 Inflammation in Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Longer asthma duration is associated with increased airway non‐T2 inflammation and reduced airway and systemic T2 inflammation. Sputum CXCL9 is independently associated with duration and may predict a reduced poor response to anti‐IL‐4Rα therapy. Airway sampling and combined T2 and non‐T2 targeted strategies may be needed in long‐standing asthma. CXCL9,

Nebulization of 2% lidocaine has no detectable impact on the healthy equine respiratory microbiota.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Glucocorticosteroids remain the most common pharmaceutical approach for the treatment of equine asthma but can be associated with significant side effects, including respiratory microbiome alterations. The goal of the study was to assess the impact of 2%

Pathogenic Airway Bacteria and Local Immune Responses During Early‐Life Asthma‐Like Episodes

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
This study investigates how Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Moraxella catarrhalis associate with airway immune responses during early‐life asthma‐like episodes, and compare these responses between children with and without asthma.

Therapeutic potential of a Bax inhibitor‐1/TMBIM6 antagonist (BIA) and its analogues in Aspergillus fumigatus‐induced asthma via dual targeting of AKT and epithelial‐derived inflammatory cytokines

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus) exposure causes of severe allergic asthma, characterized by airway inflammation and epithelial dysfunction. TMBIM6 (Bax inhibitor‐1) has been implicated in airway epithelial stress responses and AKT signalling.

Carbocisteine Reduces Airway Mucus Obstruction and Alters Inflammatory Cell Populations in a Model of Muco‐Obstructive Lung Disease

open access: yesImmunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
Mice with a muco‐obstructive lung disease phenotype were treated with the mucoactive drug, carbocisteine, which resulted in reduced airway mucus and an alteration in the lung mononuclear cell population which was either as a direct effect of, or secondary to, improved mucus clearance.
