Background and Purpose Bruton tyrosine kinase (Btk) is essential for B cell function. Its role in myeloid cells is less understood. Greater insights into Btk significance in myeloid cells are needed to evaluate its potential as a therapeutic target during the effector phase of antibody‐induced autoimmune diseases, where inhibiting autoantibody ...

Pharmacogenetic aspects of basic anti- inflammatory therapy of bronchial asthma in school-aged children under the deletion polymorphism of genes Gstt1 and Gstm1 [PDF]
Based on a comprehensive survey of 150 school-age children who suffer from bronchial asthma, there has been found that homozygosity for both alleles of the gene of glutathione transferase (GSTT1+ M1+) was associated with more frequent use both inhaled ...

Manifesto on small airway involvement and management in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: an Interasma (Global Asthma Association - GAA) and World Allergy Organization (WAO) document endorsed by Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma (ARIA) and Global Allergy and Asthma European Network (GA2LEN) [PDF]
Evidence that enables us to identify, assess, and access the small airways in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has led INTERASMA (Global Asthma Association) and WAO to take a position on the role of the small airways in these ...

AllergoOncology in Review: Harnessing Allergy in the Field of Oncology to Improve Patient Outcomes
ABSTRACT The AllergoOncology field brings together the study of allergic and cancer immune responses, having evolved from early epidemiological studies that reported inverse associations between allergies, IgE and cancer risk. Insights from studying allergic inflammation are revealing previously unappreciated immune mechanisms that confer protective ...

Mechanism of Cardiac Arrest in Fatal Anaphylaxis
This population‐based retrospective cohort study of clinical deterioration in anaphylaxis deaths identifies bronchospasm as the preponderant cause of cardiac arrest, especially in food and drug allergen exposures. The clinical implication is that anaphylaxis guidelines require appropriate emphasis on respiratory involvement and treatment to prevent ...

This review elucidates the intricate cellular signalling networks involved in high‐altitude pulmonary hypertension (HAPH), integrating canonical pathways like HIF, MAPK and BMP with emerging targets such as Wnt/β‐catenin, Notch, Hippo‐YAP and IL‐6. It highlights potential therapeutic strategies targeting these pathways to mitigate vascular remodelling ...
