KCNJ2 is Required for NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation That Drives Allergic Airway Inflammation and Remodeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study aims to evaluate the impact of the potassium channel KCNJ2 on asthma development. KCNJ2 promotes NLRP3 inflammasome activation through both Ca2+ influx and K+ efflux in airway epithelial cells, which drives allergic airway inflammation and remodeling, suggesting a promising therapeutic target for asthma.

Biomarkers for severe eosinophilic asthma [PDF]

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2017
The last decade has seen the approval of several new biologics for the treatment of severe asthma-targeting specific endotypes and phenotypes. This review will examine how evidence generated from the mepolizumab clinical development program showed that blood eosinophil counts, rather than sputum or tissue eosinophil counts, evolved as a pharmacodynamic

Endogenous Ceramide 24:1 Constrains Th17‐Driven Neutrophilic Inflammation by Antagonizing EP2 Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cer24:1 levels are reduced in neutrophilic asthma and inversely correlate with disease severity and airway neutrophilia. Restoring Cer24:1 suppresses pathogenic Th17 differentiation by engaging EP2 on CD4+ T cells, thereby dampening the JAK2–STAT3–RORγt axis and reducing IL‐17 production.

Churg-Strauss Syndrome with Necrosis of Toe Tips [PDF]

, 2011
Churg-Strauss syndrome (CSS) is a granulomatous necrotizing vasculitis of unknown etiology associated with bronchial asthma. Despite affecting small to medium-sized vessels, necrosis of the digits due to vasculitis is extremely rare.

Clinical Characteristics of Geriatric Asthma in Guangxi of China: A Retrospective Comparative Descriptive Study

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Geriatric asthmatics exhibit more comorbidities, poorer lung function, higher neutrophil ratios, and elevated CRP levels. ABSTRACT Objective The research analyzed the clinical characteristics of geriatric and nongeriatric asthma cases, aiming to provide new insights into the diagnosis and management of geriatric asthma for clinicians.

Interleukin-13 in Asthma and Other Eosinophilic Disorders

Frontiers in Medicine, 2017
Asthma is characterized by episodic, reversible airflow obstruction associated with variable levels of inflammation. Over the past several decades, there has been an increasing appreciation that the clinical presentation of asthma comprises a diverse set

Work‐Related Asthma From Exposure to Cardboard and Paper Products

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background We assess the contribution of cardboard dust exposure to the development of work‐related asthma (WRA). Prior studies on paper‐dust‐related breathing problems have focused on exposures in the paper milling and pulp industries. There have been no reports of asthma linked to workplace exposure to cardboard dust.

Appropriate Medical Therapy Primarily Modifies Type 2 and Severity Biomarkers in Chronic Rhinosinusitis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Appropriate medical therapy (AMT) is first‐line treatment for patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). We evaluated inflammatory structure, treatment‐induced changes, and biomarker‐outcome associations in AMT‐managed patients. Methods Fifty‐one CRS patients were evaluated before and after AMT which included a combination of oral ...
