Soluble CD93 as a Novel Biomarker in Asthma Exacerbation
Asthma research is shifting from studying symptoms and lung functions to the narrow-focus cellular profiles protein analysis, biomarkers, and genetic markers. The transmembrane glycoprotein CD93 is involved in endothelial cell migration, angiogenesis, leukocytes extravasation, apoptosis, innate immunity and inflammation. Relationships between the serum level of soluble CD93 (sCD93) and acute my...
متن کاملSerum Myeloperoxidase as A Biomarker of Asthma Severity Among Adults: A Case Control Study
Background: The contribution of neutrophils is still indistinct in the inflammatory response of bronchial asthma (BAs). Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an enzyme released from the primary azurophilic granules of the neutrophils. The study aimed to evaluate the levels of serum MPO as a biomarker for the assessment of the level of asthma control. Methods: The study participants included 94 asthmat...
متن کاملIncreased serum concentration of urinary trypsin inhibitor with asthma exacerbation.
The aim of the study was to determine whether the amount of urinary trypsin inhibitor (UTI) in serum, a degenerate induced by neutrophil elastase (NE), reflects the degree of bronchial inflammation in children with acute asthma exacerbation. The involvement of neutrophil-mediated inflammation plays as important a role as eosinophil-mediated inflammation in the pathogenesis of acute asthma exace...
متن کاملChanges in blood eosinophilia during omalizumab therapy as a predictor of asthma exacerbation
INTRODUCTION Omalizumab is a monoclonal anti-immunoglobulin E antibody developed for the treatment of severe allergic asthma. The number of exacerbations used as a parameter of omalizumab therapy efficacy may be insufficient in many cases due to a relatively short time to first evaluation (16 weeks). Therefore, it is advisable to look for parameters of more prognostic value while continuing oma...
متن کاملChildhood asthma and passive smoking. Urinary cotinine as a biomarker of exposure.
To assess the relationship between passive smoking and asthma, we investigated (1) whether passive smoking was more prevalent among asthmatic than control children and (2) whether exposure to tobacco smoke was higher in acute asthma than in nonacute asthma. Three groups were recruited into a case-control study: 72 acute asthmatic children from the emergency room (ER), 35 nonacute asthmatic chil...
