Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Innate immune response by a viral pathogen-associated molecular pattern dsRNA modulates the subsequent development of adaptive immune responses. Although virus-associated asthma is characterized by noneosinophilic inflammation, the role of Th17 cell response in the development of virus-associated asthma is still unknown. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the role of the Th17 cell response and its underlying...
