Epinephrine Activation of the β(2)-Adrenoceptor Is Required for IL-13-Induced Mucin Production in Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells
Mucus hypersecretion by airway epithelium is a hallmark of inflammation in allergic asthma and results in airway narrowing and obstruction. Others have shown that administration a T(H)2 cytokine, IL-13 is sufficient to cause mucus hypersecretion in vivo and in vitro. Asthma therapy often utilizes β(...
