Tim1 and Tim3 are not essential for experimental allergic asthma
BACKGROUND Initial studies suggested that polymorphisms in Tim1 and Tim3 contribute to the development of airway hyperreactivity (AHR) in an acute mouse model of asthma. This was also mirrored in human genetic studies where polymorphisms in Tim1 and Tim3 have been associated with atopic populations. OBJECTIVE Further studies using anti-Tim1 or -Tim3 antibodies, or Tim fusion proteins, have al...

19 cats were nper-sensitized to allergic asthma by receiving a concomitant spray ang injection of ovalbumin (10% fresh egg-white in normal saline) every other days for four weeks.then animals were anesthetized and left femoral artery cannulation performed to record atrerial pressure and take blood samples.left femoral vein was cannulated to infuse nutritional fluids and grugs as needed.trachea ...
متن کاملallergic and nonallergic asthma in children: are they distinct phenotypes?
the aim of current study is to describe clinical similarities and differences between atopic and non-atopic asthma in children. in a cross-sectional study, 95 asthmatic children (75 allergics and 20 nonallergics) were included in the study. demographic, clinical, and familial history were compared between two groups. there was no significant differences between variables like sex, age of onset ...
متن کاملMitochondrial structural changes and dysfunction are associated with experimental allergic asthma.
An imbalance between Th1 and Th2 immune response is crucial for the development of pathophysiological features of asthma. A Th2-dominant response produces oxidative stress in the airways, and it is thought to be one of the crucial components of asthma pathogenesis. Although mitochondrion is a crucial organelle to produce endogenous reactive oxygen species, its involvement in this process remain...
متن کاملGeneral overview of fungal allergic asthma
Asthma is a complicated disorder, whose prevalence has increased over the past few decades.Asthma is characterized by infiltration of inflammatory leukocytes along with enhancedproinflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Fungi are now far more widely being considered as thedominant extrinsic trigger for asthma. Fungi are linked to the severity of asthma in many ways. Somedifferences between studi...
