Inflammatory Signalings Involved in Airway and Pulmonary Diseases [PDF]
In respiratory diseases, there is an increased expression of multiple inflammatory proteins in the respiratory tract, including cytokines, chemokines, and adhesion molecules. Chemokines have been shown to regulate inflammation and immune cell differentiation.

Mechanisms of Airway Remodeling in Asthma
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by reversible airflow limitation and airway hyperresponsiveness. Persistent inflammation in airway tissues may lead to structural changes known as airway remodeling and consequently airway ...

Neutrophil Heterogeneity in Airway Inflammatory Diseases
Neutrophils, the most abundant circulating leukocytes in humans, play key roles in infection and inflammation. The lungs represent a vital pool for neutrophils, serving as both a primary site of immune surveillance and a key battleground in inflammatory responses.

Upper airway inflammatory diseases and bronchial hyperresponsiveness
Inflammatory processes of the upper airway may alter the responsiveness of the lower airway. For example, bronchial hyperresponsiveness may be seen in patients with allergic rhinitis. This could represent coexistent but unrecognized asthma, but also suggests that IgE-dependent inflammation may occur in the lower airway that can increase bronchial ...

Multiple inflammatory hits and the pathogenesis of severe airway disease.
Refractory or difficult-to-control asthma is associated with some clinical and pathological features normally associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), raising the possibility that there are similarities in their pathogenesis.

Anesthetic management of a patient with Kimura′s disease for superficial parotidectomy
Kimura′s disease is a rare form of chronic eosinophilic inflammatory disease with vascular proliferation involving salivary gland, skin, lymph node, and kidney. Important anesthetic concerns include increased surgical bleeding due to its vascular nature,

Analysis of IL12B gene variants in inflammatory bowel disease [PDF]
IL12B encodes the p40 subunit of IL-12, which is also part of IL-23. Recent genome-wide association studies identified IL12B and IL23R as susceptibility genes for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Phosphodiesterase 4 Inhibitors in Allergic Rhinitis/Rhinosinusitis
Allergic rhinitis/rhinosinusitis (AR) is the most common allergic disease. It affects patients’ quality of life and may influence the severity of lower airway disease such as asthma. Therefore, its treatment is of great importance.

Candidate genes colocalized to linkage regions in inflammatory bowel disease [PDF]
Background and Aims: The genes encoding for tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the vitamin D receptor (VDR) are colocalized to inflammatory bowel disease-associated linkage regions on chromosomes 6, 7 and
