Asthma: where is it going?

Brazilian journal of medical and biological research = Revista brasileira de pesquisas medicas e biologicas - 1 Sept 2008

Faffe D S

Abstract excerpt

Asthma is characterized by reversible airway obstruction, airway hyperresponsiveness, and airway inflammation. Although our understanding of its pathophysiological mechanisms continues to evolve, the relative contributions of airway hyperresponsiveness and inflammation are still debated. The first mechanism identified as important for asthma was bronchial hyperresponsiveness. In a second step, asthma was...
