Immune parameters in patients with asthma
Abstract:
The article is dedicated to researching of conditions of factors of nonspecific resistance of organism in patients with bronchial asthma. Damage of intensity of absorbtive function of neutrophils, activation of metabolism of neutrophils and monocytes of peripheral blood, coupled with a decrease in bactericidal functional reserve of monocytes prevailed in clinical manifestations of immune deficiency at bronchopulmonary diseases. Suppression of interferon genesis was combined with deviations of indicators of cellular and humoral immunity, and leukocyte production of tumor necrosis factor.

Antiasthma Drugs: Mast Cell Stabilizers and Anti-IgE Drugs
Mast cell stabilizers, such as cromolyn (also known as sodium cromoglycate) and nedocromil (Tilade), are effective drugs in asthma management. These stabilizers hinder histamine release by skillfully obstructing the activation of mast cells and other cellular entities. Notably, they navigate this task without...
Asthma: Pathogenesis and Management
Asthma is classified as allergic and non-allergic. Allergens such as dust mites, pollen, and pet dander trigger allergic asthma, while factors like cold air, intense emotions, or exercise can induce non-allergic asthma.
