简要总结
Pin1 is activated in asthmatic airways, increasing cytokine mRNA stability and eosinophil survival. This study is designed to test whether the Pin1 enzyme regulates TLR/IL-1R signal pathways in multiple cells in asthma.
详细描述
The investigators will test their hypothesis that Pin1 regulates TLR/IL-1R signaling pathways in asthma by examining Pin1 and related pathway activation in BAL-derived eosinophils after house dust mite allergen challenge. The investigators will perform segmental allergen challenge. BAL and lung biopsy of the allergen-challenged segments will be performed 48 hr later and activation of Pin1 and related pathways will be examined.

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in the Percentage of Total White Blood Cell That Were Eosinophils at 48 Hours
时间窗: from baseline to 48 hours
Measure Pin1 activity in BAL-derived eosinophils after House Dust Mite (HDM) allergen challenge: Eosinophils post-challenge change from pre-challenge is reported: absolute change = \[eosinophils post (%) - eosinophils pre (%)\]
次要结局
- Percent Change From Baseline in the Percentage of Total White Blood Cell That Were Lymphocytes at 48 Hours(from baseline to 48 hours)
- Percent Change From Baseline in the Percentage of Total White Blood Cell That Were Macrophages at 48 Hours(from baseline to 48 hours)
- Change From Baseline in the Percentage of Total White Blood Cell That Were Neutrophils at 48 Hours(from baseline to 48 hours)
