Allergic diseases such as allergic rhinitis (AR), allergic asthma (AAS), atopic dermatitis (AD),
food allergy (FA), and eczema are systemic diseases caused by an impaired immune …

Electrophiles and reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a major role in modulating cellular
defense mechanisms as well as physiological functions, and intracellular signaling …

Oxidative stress caused by the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays a major
role in inflammatory processes. We hypothesized that modulation of ROS via quercetin may …

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is emphysema and/or chronic bronchitis
characterised by long-term breathing problems and poor airflow. The prevalence of COPD …

Macrophages play an important role in the innate and adaptive immune responses of organ
systems, including the lungs, to particles and pathogens. Cumulative results show that …

Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are obstructive airway disorders
which differ in their underlying causes and phenotypes but overlap in patterns of …

We evaluated immunometabolic functions of novel Lactobacillus fermentum strains (KBL374
and KBL375) isolated from feces of healthy Koreans. The levels of inflammatory cytokines …

Asthma is a complex inflammatory disease characterized by airway inflammation and
hyperresponsiveness. The mechanisms associated with the development and progression …

One of the adverse outcomes of acute inflammatory response is progressing to the chronic
stage or transforming into an aggressive process, which can develop rapidly and result in …

Lung diseases, such as cystic fibrosis and COPD, are characterized by mucus obstruction
and chronic airway inflammation, but their mechanistic link remains poorly understood …
