TLDR
It is shown that compared with non-allergic healthy control children, bronchial epithelial cells cultured ex vivo from severe therapy resistant atopic asthmatic children have profoundly impaired interferon-β and interferons-λ mRNA and protein in response to rhinovirus (RV) and polyIC stimulation, and this is a feature of STRA.

Interferon response of the cystic fibrosis bronchial epithelium to major and minor group rhinovirus infection

TL;DR: In a pilot study, the antiviral response of CF and healthy bronchial epithelial cells (BECs) to RV infection was assessed and the IFN pathway induction upon minor group RVs infection was significantly increased at the level of IFNs and PRRs in CF BECs compared to healthy B ECs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Viruses and asthma: the role of common respiratory viruses in asthma and its potential meaning for SARS-CoV-2.

TL;DR: It is of crucial importance to revise the available scientific literature regarding the association between common respiratory viruses and asthma, as well as the newly emerging data about the molecular mechanisms of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection and its possible relation with asthma, to better understand the interrelation between common virus and asthma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Innate immunity as the orchestrator of allergic airway inflammation and resolution in asthma.

TL;DR: Existing knowledge on innate immune responses involved in allergic airway inflammation are outlined, current gaps in understanding of the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms are highlighted and the potential use of innate effector cells in new therapeutic avenues are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Severe Asthma in School-Age Children: Evaluation and Phenotypic Advances

TL;DR: Current knowledge of severe asthma in school-age children (age 6–17 years) with a focus on recent literature published after January 2012 is reviewed, as well as current phenotyping efforts and emerging phenotypic-directed therapies that may be of benefit for subpopulations of children with severe Asthma in the future.

A diverse range of gene products are effectors of the type I interferon antiviral response

TL;DR: It is shown that different viruses are targeted by unique sets of ISGs, and that each viral species is susceptible to multiple antiviral genes, which together encompass a range of inhibitory activities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Community study of role of viral infections in exacerbations of asthma in 9-11 year old children.

TL;DR: This study supports the hypothesis that upper respiratory viral infections are associated with 80-85% of asthma exacerbations in school age children.
Journal ArticleDOI

A large-scale, consortium-based genomewide association study of asthma.

TL;DR: A few common alleles are associated with disease risk at all ages and suggest a role for communication of epithelial damage to the adaptive immune system and activation of airway inflammation in asthma.
Journal ArticleDOI

IFN-lambdas mediate antiviral protection through a distinct class II cytokine receptor complex.

TL;DR: The identification of a ligand-receptor system that, upon engagement, leads to the establishment of an antiviral state and may contribute to antiviral or other defenses by a mechanism similar to, but independent of, type I IFNs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of inhaled formoterol and budesonide on exacerbations of asthma. Formoterol and Corticosteroids Establishing Therapy (FACET) International Study Group

TL;DR: In patients who have persistent symptoms of asthma despite treatment with inhaled glucocorticoids, the addition of formoterol to budesonid therapy or the use of a higher dose of budesonide may be beneficial.
