Type II alveolar epithelial cell–specific loss of RhoA exacerbates allergic airway inflammation through SLC26A4

The small GTPase RhoA and its downstream effectors are critical regulators in the pathophysiological processes of asthma. The underlying mechanism, however, remains undetermined. Here, we generated an asthma mouse model with RhoA–conditional KO mice (Sftpc-cre;RhoAfl/fl) in type II alveolar epitheli...
