Exhaled breath condensate cysteinyl leukotrienes and airway remodeling in childhood asthma: a pilot study

BACKGROUND: It has been suggested that cysteinyl leukotrienes (cysLTs) play an important role in airway remodeling. Previous reports have indicated that cysLTs augment human airway smooth muscle cell proliferation. Recently, cysLTs have been measured in exhaled breath condensate (EBC). The aim of th...
