Airway involvement in hypersensitivity pneumonitis

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine
Moises Selman, M H Vargas

Abstract

Exposure to organic particles causes, in a susceptible host, diffuse inflammation of the lung acinus. However, immunopathologic response may not be confined to the alveoli and may also involve the large and peripheral airways. Therefore, after allergen inhalation a clinical spectrum of respiratory disorders may be observed, including hypersensitivity pneumonitis, asthma, chronic airway obstruction, and simple chronic bronchitis. Hypersensitivity pneumonitis is not a uniform disease but a complex syndrome, and the involvement of the airways may occur alone, simultaneously with, or after the parenchymal disease.

Asthma

This feed focuses in Asthma in which your airways narrow and swell. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.
