Bronchial smooth muscle mitochondria: A new target for asthma therapy?

Revue des maladies respiratoires
Pauline EstevesThomas Trian

Abstract

The main purpose of this review is to highlight mitochondria as a new therapeutic target to prevent bronchial smooth muscle (BSM) remodeling in asthma. Severe asthmatic patients, representing 5-10% of all asthmatics, are characterized by an increased BSM mass which is highly correlated with the severity of the disease and the rate of exacerbations. None of the current asthma therapies are effective in reducing BSM remodelling. This review, based on the current literature, reports the role of mitochondria in BSM, particularly in calcium signaling.

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.

Calcium & Bioenergetics

Bioenergetic processes, including cellular respiration and photosynthesis, concern the transformation of energy by cells. Here is the latest research on the role of calcium in bioenergetics.

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.
