In experimental COPD, this occurred through disrupted collagen organization and interactions with fibronectin, periostin, and tenascin-c. Genetic inhibition of Fbln1c also reduced levels of pulmonary inflammatory cells and proinflammatory cytokines/chemokines (TNF-a, IL-33, and CXCL1) in experimental COPD. Fbln1c⌿ mice also had reduced airway remodeling in experimental chronic asthma and pulmonary fibrosis. Our data show that Fbln1c may be a therapeutic target in chronic respiratory diseases.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 13:33:47 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28359 in vivo in the absence of allergen. Post hoc analysis of gene array data demonstrated significant upregulation of TRAIL and MID1 in a cohort of children with EoE compared with that seen in controls. Conclusion TRAIL regulates MID1 and TSLP, inflammation, fibrosis, smooth muscle hypertrophy, and expression of inflammatory effector chemokines and cytokines in experimental EoE.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:25:13 AEDT ]]>
