Do you know someone who suffers from asthma? Or perhaps you have experienced the feeling of dread as your lungs work fruitlessly to inhale a fresh gulp of air. New research reports on the asthmatic response to allergens at the cellular level and examines the lungs’ delicate balance between inflammation and immunity. The authors, Darin L. Wiesner and Bruce S. Klein, are leading researchers in the field of immunology. getAbstract recommends their report to those who would like to learn about exciting new targets for future asthma medications.
