Fig. 2 LTC4 synthase genotype and pulmonary function response to zafirlukast in patients with severe asthma. Pulmonary function responses to 2 weeks of treatment with oral zafirlukast (20 mg twice daily for 2 weeks) in 23 persons with chronic severe asthma, stratified by their wild-type (AA) (white bars, n = 10) or mutant (AC/CC) (black bars, n = 13) genotype for the LTC4 synthase A-444C promoter polymorphism.

Fig. 3 Diagram showing 3 models to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of intervention using examination of induced sputum. Activated airway inflammation can be presented spontaneously (uncontrolled asthma) or induced by an allergen challenge or by a controlled reduction of therapy.

Fig. 4 Sputum cell counts for eosinophils (black bars) and neutrophils (white bars) in healthy subjects and in subjects with asthma of varying severities. Results are the mean values from the results of several studies. Dashed line represents the upper limit (+90% CI) of the mean for eosinophils from healthy subjects, 1.1%. Higher proportions of eosinophils and neutrophils were measured in asthmatic patients compared with healthy subjects.

Fig. 5 Time course of effects of prednisone reduction on markers of airway functional inflammation. Blue indicates symptoms; gray, FEV1; green, blood eosinophils; black, sputum eosinophils.

Fig. 6 NO in exhaled air (Feno, in parts per billion) was significantly reduced after treatment with montelukast and budesonide as compared with placebo. Such treatment effects were independent of concurrent treatment with inhaled steroid (circles, solid lines) or no concurrent treatment with inhaled steroid (squares, dashed lines) .
