Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of osthole (OS) on asthma-induced airway epithelial cell apoptosis and inflammation by restraining Th2 differentiation through suppressing TSLP/NF-κB.
Methods: An asthma mouse model and an inflammation cell model were constructed with ovalbumin (OVA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS), respectively. CD4 + T cells were treated with IL-4 to induce Th2 differentiation.
