Public microarray databases allow analysis of expression levels of candidate genes in different contexts. However, finding relevant microarray data is complicated by the large number of available studies. We have compiled a user-friendly, open-access database of mRNA microarray experiments relevant to allergic airway inflammation, the Allergic Airway Inflammation Repository (AAIR, http://aair.cimed.ike.liu.se/). The aim is to allow allergy researchers to determine the expression profile of their genes of interest in multiple clinical data sets and several experimental systems quickly and intuitively. AAIR also provides quick links to other relevant information such as experimental protocols, related literature and raw data files.

College of Veterinary Medicine and BK21 FOUR Program, Chonnam National University, 77 Yong-bong-ro, Buk-gu, Gwangju 61186, Republic of Korea. Electronic address:

Silibinin, a major compound of silymarin, has been reported to alleviate respiratory diseases including acute lung injury, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and pulmonary fibrosis through its antifibrotic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. However, the specific mechanisms underlying its therapeutic effects, particularly in allergic asthma, are not fully understood. With the increasing prevalence and impact of allergic asthma, there is a need to elucidate the exact underlying mechanisms of its potential treatment effects.

Purpose: Fractional nasal exhaled NO (FnNO), fractional exhaled NO (FeNO) and lung function tests were performed in children with moderate-to-severe persistent allergic rhinitis (AR) to investigate the significance of the above indices in the assessment and diagnosis of children with AR.

Methods: A total of 135 children with persistent AR were selected and divided into moderate-to-severe and mild groups; serum total immunoglobulin E (IgE), peripheral blood eosinophil counts (EOS), FnNO, FeNO, and lung function tests were performed.

Results: Children in the moderate-to-severe group had increased levels of FnNO and FeNO and decreased levels of forced expiratory flow at 75% of forced vital capacity as a percentage of the predicted value (FEF75%) and maximum mid-term expiratory flow as a percentage of the predicted value (MMEF%) .

Department of Otolaryngology, Qingdao Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital (Qingdao Hiser Hospital), Qingdao Hiser Hospital Affiliated of Qingdao University, Qingdao, 266033, Shandong, People's Republic of China.

Baicalein, one of the major active flavonoids found in Scutellaria baicalensis, has been revealed to exhibit potent anti-inflammatory properties in allergic airway inflammation. This study aimed to explore the role of baicalein and its relevant mechanism in the treatment of allergic rhinitis (AR). The bioinformatics tools were used to predict the targets of baicalein and AR-related genes.

Background: A fundamental tenet of the hygiene theory is the inverse association between helminth infections and the emergence of immune-mediated diseases. Research has been done to clarify the processes by which helminth-derived molecules can inhibit immunological disorders. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of Trichinella spiralis chitinase (Ts-chit) to ameliorate the symptoms of allergic airway inflammation.
