IL‐33 induces inflammatory gene signatures in eosinophils, characterised by the upregulation of cell surface markers, inflammatory mediators and regulatory factors, all of which were also observed in nasal polyp‐derived eosinophils. Ox‐LDL and complement fragments (C3a and C5a) promote eosinophil adhesion and survival.

Coexisting Asthma and Diabetes Are Associated With Adverse Metabolic and Inflammatory Profiles
ABSTRACT Aims Asthma and diabetes frequently co‐occur and share metabolic and inflammatory features, yet the cardiometabolic profile associated with their coexistence is not well defined. We examined differences in cardiometabolic and inflammatory biomarkers by joint asthma–diabetes status in U.S.

Chinese Position Paper on Biologic Therapy for Allergic Rhinitis
ABSTRACT Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a common, persistent nasal disorder that poses significant public health challenges worldwide. Current treatment options frequently fail to achieve adequate symptom control in a substantial subset of patients. Over the past two decades, biologic therapies that target type 2 inflammatory pathways have been used to ...
