Effects of Gallopamil in Severe Asthma
Severe asthma is a difficult to treat disease, characterized by bronchial remodelling, which is an abnormal repair process that contributes to the development of poorly reversible airway narrowing.

Asthma
Effect of Montelukast on the Airway Remodeling
The distal lung contributes to asthmatic airway remodeling which is observed from early onset of the disease. Cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLT) play important role in the pathogenesis of airway remodeling and antileukotrienes work…

Asthma
How Airway Remodeling and Hyperresponsiveness Contribute to Airflow Obstruction in Asthma
Airway hyperresponsiveness is a characteristic feature of the asthma. It is known that there is an association between airway hyperresponsiveness and eosinophilic airway inflammation.
