...This observation could provide a novel approach to the mechanisms underlying childhood wheezing and asthma, prognostics, and potentially different therapies of distinct asthma phenotypes.(15) It would be encouraging to find future therapeutic interventions to prevent asthma, but this warrants further study....

...Awareness of which early risk factors predict atopic or nonatopic asthma in later childhood could also provide a novel approach into the mechanisms underlying childhood wheezing and asthma phenotypes.(15) Simple clinical markers would also offer a way to find early intervention strategies to prevent asthma....

...The underlying susceptibility to atopic disorders and viral triggers might be the true asthma risk factor, and thus interplay between sensitization and viral infections is likely to be involved.(2,5,15,34,35) TheChildhoodOrigins of Asthma study group showed the chronological order of causality in a statistical model (ie, early-life aeroallergen sensitization precedes rhinovirus illnesses and asthma)....

...Array studies(22) have not found that these pattern recognition receptors are poorly expressed in asthma, and large genotyping studies have not highlighted any single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with asthma for these genes.(41,42) These receptors also activate signaling pathways that are also common for pro-inflammatory cytokines,(18) which are not consistently reduced in studies where impaired IFN are observed....
