Grant Activity:
Modelling the role of innate immune cells in exacerbation of asthma
Purpose:
Asthma exacerbations are triggered by infections or allergens and are often poorly responsive to therapy. The specific factors inducing episodes remain largely unknown but are linked to activation of innate immunity. We found that the cytokine IL-36 is linked to activation and expansion of innate lymphoid cells, which may regulate exacerbations. Our studies will further define involvement of these cells in the mechanism underlying exacerbation providing novel insights into new treatments.
