Hedgehogs and Angiostrongylus cantonensis: Uncovering the Role of Atelerix albiventris in the Parasite Life Cycle

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ongoing invasion of the zoonotic parasite Angiostrongylus cantonensis threatens humans, other mammals, and birds. In Mallorca, neurological disorders associated with this parasite are increasingly reported in free‐living Algerian hedgehogs, Atelerix algirus, raising public health concerns.

Role for Complement C5 in Eosinophilic Inflammation of Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Complement activation module, particularly C5, is positively associated with eosinophilic inflammation in severe asthma cohorts. Elevated C5 expression correlates with poor lung function improvement and persistent eosinophilic inflammation. Mouse model studies confirm that C5 exacerbates eosinophilic inflammation, highlighting its potential as a ...

Interleukin 4, but not interleukin 5 or eosinophils, is required in a murine model of acute airway hyperreactivity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Reversible airway hyperreactivity underlies the pathophysiology of asthma, yet the precise mediators of the response remain unclear. Human studies have correlated aberrant activation of T helper (Th) 2-like effector systems in the airways with disease. A

Human ascariasis: diagnostics update [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Soil-transmitted helminths (STHs) infect over one billion people worldwide. Ascariasis may mimic a number of conditions, and individual clinical diagnosis often requires a thorough work-up.

IgG4‐Related Disease: Emerging Roles of Novel Genetic Variants, Immune Cell Subsets and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT IgG4, the least abundant IgG subclass in humans, is increasingly recognised for its involvement in allergic and autoimmune pathologies. Its unique properties, such as the tendency to form half‐molecules (one heavy chain and one light chain) and its generally non‐inflammatory nature, distinguish it from other IgG subclasses.

Diagnosis and management of eosinophilic asthma: a US perspective. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Eosinophilic asthma is now recognized as an important subphenotype of asthma based on the pattern of inflammatory cellular infiltrate in the airway. Eosinophilic asthma can be associated with increased asthma severity, atopy, late-onset disease, and ...

Fungal‐Driven Airways Dis‐Immunity From Asthma to Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis: Dissecting Similarities and Differences

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe asthma and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) do not rarely coexist and share several similarities in terms of pathobiological background, together with overlapping clinical manifestations, misleading the correct diagnosis. Within that scenario, severe asthma with fungal sensitization (SAFS) further complicates the correct ...

An uncommon presentation of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis: a case report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
INTRODUCTION: Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis is a rare and potentially fatal disease if not readily diagnosed. Cerebral involvement is extremely rare and clinical presentation as hemorrhagic stroke is even rarer.
