  2. 1. Eosinophil Inflammation in Allergic Disease : Clinical and experimental studies in allergic asthma and allergic rhinitis

    Author : Mary Kämpe; Marie Carlson; Christer Janson; Gunnemar Stålenheim; Magnus Sköld; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Allergic asthma; allergic rhinitis; eosinophils; pollen season; bronchial challenge; nasal challenge eosinophil degranulation; PI3K signalling; Allergology; Allergologi; Lung Medicine; Lungmedicin; Lung Medicine; Lungmedicin;

    Abstract : Allergic diseases are chronic inflammatory conditions, characterised by eosinophil inflammation systemically and in target organs, where cytotoxic granule proteins are responsible for tissue injury. Allergic rhinitis is known to be a risk factor for the development of asthma, yet not all with rhinitis develop asthma. READ MORE
