Abstract:
This article contains information related to the research article entitled "Biomarkers associated with disease severity in allergic and nonallergic asthma" (S. Baos, D. Calzada, L. Cremades, J. Sastre, J. Quiralte, F. Florido, C. Lahoz, B. Cárdaba, In press). Specifically, the clinical criteria stablished for selecting the study population (n=104 subjects) are described. Moreover, this article describes the criteria for selecting the 94 genes to be analyzed in PBMCs (peripheral blood mononuclear cells), it is provided a description of these genes and a Table with the genes most differentially expressed by clinical phenotypes and, finally it is detailed the experimental methodology followed for studying the protein expression of MSR1 (macrophage scavenger receptor 1), one of the genes evaluated in the research.

01:20Asthma: 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.

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...
