Role and Molecular Mechanisms of Alternative Splicing of Th2-Cytokines IL-4 and IL-5 in Atopic Bronchial Asthma
1 Oct 2023
Abstract excerpt
Bronchial asthma (BA) is a heterogeneous chronic inflammatory disease of the respiratory tract. Allergic (atopic) asthma is the most common (up to 80% of cases) phenotype developing through the Th2-dependent mechanisms involving cytokines: IL-4, IL-5, IL-9, and IL-13. The genes encoding Th2-cytokines have a mosaic structure (encode exons and introns). Therefore, several mature mRNA transcripts and protein...
