This review explores asthma, a chronic airway inflammatory disease affecting millions. While understanding has evolved, further research is needed to answer questions about mediators and cell receptors.

Area of Science:

  • Pulmonology
  • Immunology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Asthma is a chronic airway inflammatory disorder.
  • It is a significant public health issue affecting 5% of the US population.
  • Asthma leads to millions of emergency visits, hospitalizations, and deaths annually.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review asthma pathophysiology.
  • To examine characteristic pathologic patterns of asthma.
  • To discuss potential mechanisms behind asthma lesion development.

Main Methods:

  • Literature search using MEDLINE and OVID.
  • Inclusion of related conference abstracts.
  • Review of bibliographies from selected studies.

Main Results:
