Have you ever suffered from asthma attacks? Well research may have found a way to help people with it, and by “turning it off”. It has to do with a switch which composed of regulatory proteins. This is a great breakthrough for anyone who suffers from this breathing disease, its a breath of fresh air,
Key Takeaways:
- Researchers discover a critical cellular ‘off’ switch for the inflammatory immune response that causes asthma attacks.
- They found that other proteins that stop the action of IRS-2 were not present in human M2 cells from people with allergies compared to healthy people.
- One of the advantages of working with lung macrophages is that they are one of the first cells that see anything that gets put in an inhaler.
“Johns Hopkins researchers report they have identified a critical cellular “off” switch for the inflammatory immune response that contributes to lung-constricting asthma attacks.”
