IL-13 and its genetic variants: effect on current asthma treatments.

Discovery medicine - 1 Dec 2011

Townley Robert G, Sapkota Muna, Sapkota Kiran

Abstract excerpt

Airway hyperresponsiveness is an essential part of the definition of asthma associated temporally with exposure to allergens, certain respiratory viruses, pollutants such as ozone, and certain organic chemicals. Interleukin-13 (IL-13) is implicated as a central regulator in immunoglobulin E (IgE) synthesis, mucus hypersecretion, airway hyperresponsiveness, and fibrosis. The importance of IL-13 in allergic...
