1 What effect does asthma treatment have on airway remodeling
What effect does asthma treatment have on airway remodeling? Current perspectives  Sheharyar R. Durrani, MD, Ravi K. Viswanathan, MD, William W. Busse, MD  Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology  Volume 128, Issue 3, Pages (September 2011) DOI: /j.jaci Copyright © 2011 American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Integrative model of the components of airway remodeling. In asthmatic patients airway inflammation, epithelial and goblet cell phenotype alterations, subepithelial fibrosis (eg, reticular basement membrane in the text), excess mucus secretion, smooth muscle cell hypertrophy and hyperplasia, and angiogenesis are present.

3 Fig 2 A, Individual changes in reticular layer thickness beneath the epithelium in bronchial biopsy specimens before and after 2 years of treatment according to the reference and AHR strategies. Bars indicate mean values at the visits for both strategies. There was a significant decrease in reticular layer thickness within the AHR strategy group, which was significantly greater than in the reference strategy group. Excerpted with permission from Sont et al.30 B, Relationship between changes in EG2+ eosinophils and changes in methacholine PC20 values during 2 years of treatment according to the reference and AHR strategies. The greater the decrease in the number of EG2+ eosinophils, the greater the improvement in AHR to inhaled methacholine.

4 Fig 3 Comparison of changes in RBH thickness for fluticasone propionate (FP; solid circles) and placebo (PL; open circles) at 3 and 12 months’ treatment. ∗∗P < .01, 12-month FP versus baseline; P < .05 versus placebo.
