Quantitative computed tomography–derived clusters: Redefining airway remodeling in asthmatic patients☆
BACKGROUND Asthma heterogeneity is multidimensional and requires additional tools to unravel its complexity. Computed tomography (CT)-assessed proximal airway remodeling and air trapping in asthmatic patients might provide new insights into underlying disease mechanisms. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to explore novel, quantitative, CT-determined asthma phenotypes. METHODS Sixty-five ...
متن کاملRole of histamine in airway remodeling of asthmatic guinea pig.
To investigate the role of histamine in airway remodeling, 50 healthy guinea pigs were divided into 5 groups: control group: nebulized inhalation of distilled water for 8 weeks; asthma model group: nebulized inhalation of ovalbumin (OVA) for 8 weeks after sensitization; continued asthma model group: nebulized inhalation of OVA for 14 weeks after sensitization; histamine group: nebulized inhalat...
متن کاملNotch Signaling: Linking Embryonic Lung Development and Asthmatic Airway Remodeling.
Lung development is mediated by assorted signaling proteins and orchestrated by complex mesenchymal-epithelial interactions. Notch signaling is an evolutionarily conserved cell-cell communication mechanism that exhibits a pivotal role in lung development. Notably, both aberrant expression and loss of regulation of Notch signaling are critically linked to the pathogenesis of various lung disease...

متن کاملLong-term changes in airway-wall thickness on computed tomography in asthmatic patients.
BACKGROUND Effects of long-term treatment with inhaled corticosteroids (ICSs) on airway-wall thickness in patients with asthma remain unknown. OBJECTIVES To determine whether airway-wall thickness consistently decreases after long-term ICS treatment, and to analyze factors contributing to long-term airway-wall changes in asthmatics. METHODS A retrospective analysis of long-term changes in a...
