Exogenous IL-25 ameliorates airway neutrophilia via suppressing macrophage M1 polarization and the expression of IL-12 and IL-23 in asthma
Abstract Background Severe asthma is associated with substantial mortality and has unmet therapeutic need. A subset of severe asthma is characterized by neutrophilic airway inflammation. Classically activated (or M1) macrophages which express IL-12 and IL-23 are associated with airway neutrophilia i...
