KyoT2 downregulates airway remodeling in asthma.
The typical pathological features of asthma are airway remodeling and airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR). KyoT2, a negative modulator of Notch signaling, has been linked to asthma in several previous studies. However, whether KyoT2 is involved in the regulation of airway remodeling or the modulation of airway resistance in asthma is unclear. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the therapeutic pot...
متن کاملMechanisms 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 obstruction that is not fully reversible and progressive loss of lung function over time. It is generally accepted that airway remodeling is closely rela...
متن کاملAirway remodeling in asthma: tumor of the airway?
properties and the therapy has been shown to have an acute and sustained beneficial effect on lung function (changes in FEV 1 ) in chronic persistent asthma [6] . Antileukotrienes do not have major side effects and appear to be well tolerated by most patients [7] , but a limitation of their widespread use may be due to the large percentage of nonresponders [8] . However, for those intolerant or...
متن کاملAirway structural components drive airway smooth muscle remodeling in asthma.
Chronic asthma is an inflammatory airways disease characterized by pathological changes in the airway smooth muscle (ASM) bundle that contribute to airway obstruction and hyperresponsiveness. Remodeling of the ASM is associated with an increased smooth muscle mass, involving components of cellular hypertrophy and hyperplasia, and changes in the phenotype of the muscle that facilitate proliferat...
متن کاملAcute allergen-induced airway remodeling in atopic asthma.
Studies in animals and in human atopic skin suggest that allergen challenge may activate acute tissue remodeling changes via transforming growth factor-beta pathways. We determined whether inhalational allergen challenge in subjects with mild asthma induces similar acute changes to the airway epithelial mesenchymal trophic unit (EMTU). Endobronchial mucosal biopsies obtained before and 24 h aft...
