A Rare Case of COPA Syndrome: Multisystem Relapse and Fatal Septic Complication

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
A 45‐year‐old man with a history of recurrent respiratory failure, arthritis and renal dysfunction was diagnosed with COPA syndrome through genetic testing after years of progressive interstitial lung disease and immune‐mediated manifestations. He initially responded to immunosuppressive therapy but relapsed after treatment discontinuation, developing ...

Resolving Endoplasmic Reticulum‐Protein Misfolding Restores Corticosteroid Sensitivity in Experimental Models of Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, Volume 81, Issue 9, Page 3221-3235, September 2026.
This study investigates the role of ER stress in steroid resistance in severe asthma. Results from advanced 3D models of human bronchial epithelial cells, steroid‐resistant severe asthma mouse models, and human severe asthma sputum samples show that treatment with ICS in combination with the ER stress inhibitor 4‐PBA significantly enhances steroid ...

A comparative study of bronchodilator response: utilizing pre-bronchodilator versus predicted normal values

open access: yes
A positive bronchodilator response has been defined as a 12% increase in the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV ) or forced vital capacity (FVC) from their respective pre-bronchodilator values, combined with at least a 0.2 L absolute change ...

Structure and functional impact of seed region variant in MIR-499 gene family in bronchial asthma

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2017
Background Small non-coding RNAs (microRNAs) have been evolved to master numerous cellular processes. Genetic variants within microRNA seed region might influence microRNA biogenesis and function.

Type‐2‐Inflammatory‐Diseases Share Comorbidities, Molecular Signatures, IL4/IL13 Genetics, and Response to IL4/IL13 Blockade

open access: yesAllergy, Volume 81, Issue 9, Page 3345-3360, September 2026.
Studies suggest that type 2 inflammatory diseases are driven by overactivation of the IL4/IL13 pathway, manifesting differently in distinct tissues. We performed quantitative analyses using several large independent datasets to explore the interrelation of type 2 inflammatory diseases based on co‐prevalence, genetic predispositions, and transcriptomic ...

Genome-wide linkage analysis of bronchodilator responsiveness and post-bronchodilator spirometric phenotypes in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

open access: yes, 2003
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common, complex disease associated with significant and increasing morbidity and mortality. The cardinal feature of COPD is persistent airflow obstruction, measured by reductions in quantitative ...
