Bronchial asthma (asthma) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways that remains an unresolved problem. Reportedly M2 macrophages and exosomes play a role in inflammation, including asthma. We investigated the roles of M2 macrophage-derived exosomes (M2-Exos) effect in asthmatic progression by using ovalbumin (OVA) induced asthmatic mice model.

The Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine, Farmington, CT, 06032, USA.
Background: The microbiome regulates the respiratory epithelium's immunomodulatory functions. To explore how the microbiome's biodiversity affects microbe-epithelial interactions, we screened 58 phylogenetically diverse microbes for their transcriptomic effect on human primary bronchial air-liquid interface (ALI) cell cultures.
Results: We found distinct species- and strain-level differences in host innate immunity and epithelial barrier response.
Lobar lung transplantation, followed by partial sternal resection and bronchial stenosis, in a patient with scoliosis.

Scoliotic deformity represents a serious spinal disorder that influences the locomotive and cardiopulmonary systems. Some patients with severe scoliosis and end-stage lung disease are therefore denied lung transplantation. In patients with scoliosis considering lung transplantation, size match, straight back syndrome, delayed chest closure and bronchial stenosis are key issues clinicians should evaluate.

Departments of Animal Science, Integrative Biology and Physiology, University of Minnesota,St. Paul, MN, 55108. Electronic address:
Background: Environmental allergens induce the release of danger signals from the airway epithelium that trigger type 2 immune responses and promote airway inflammation.
Objective: To investigate the role of allergen-stimulated P2Y receptor activation in regulating ATP, IL-33 and DNA release by human bronchial epithelial (hBE) cells and mouse airways.
Methods: hBE cells were exposed to Alternaria alternata extract and secretion of ATP, IL-33 and DNA were studied in vitro.
Differential Cytotoxicity and Inflammatory Responses to Particulate Matter Components in Airway Structural Cells.
Int J Mol Sci
January 2025
Lung Biology, Department of Experimental Medical Sciences, Lund University, 221 84 Lund, Sweden.
Particulate matter (PM) is a major component of ambient air pollution. PM exposure is linked to numerous adverse health effects, including chronic lung diseases. Air quality guidelines designed to regulate levels of ambient PM are currently based on the mass concentration of different particle sizes, independent of their origin and chemical composition.
