bronchial asthma
Introduction Bronchial asthma is a chronic inflammatory condition involving a variety of cells including eosinophils, mast cells, T lymphocytes, neutrophils, and epithelial cells of the airway, as well as cellular elements, which gives rise to the increase of airway hyper-reactivity. Extensive changeable and reversible ventilation restriction is common and can cause recurrent tachypnea, feeling of out of breath, and coughing. The symptoms are more usually present and aggravated at night or early in the morning Remission might be achieved spontaneously or following treatment

etiology The pathogenesis of asthma is complicated and is affected by genetics and the environment. It is a multigene disoder and closely related to atopy. Most patients have prior history of eczema, allergic rhinitis, food or drug allergy, and quite a few patients have family history. The formation and attack of asthma is also a consequence of the function of multiple environmental factors such as inhalation of allergens respiratory tract infection, and coldness

Pathogenic mechanism Asthma is Characteristic of hyper reactivity of the airway Chronic (allergic) inflammation is the basic lesion of asthma
Pathogenic mechanism • Asthma is Characteristic of hyperreactivity of the airway • Chronic (allergic) inflammation is the basic lesion of asthma
Allergic inflammation is divided into 3 subtypes according to the different cytokines secreted by cd4 Th cell Th0、 Thl and th2。 nvestigations have shown that allergic reactions like asthma are mediated by Th2 cells There is an increase or predominance of Th2 or its cytokines. The resulting airway inflammation could be classified into the following two types 1. IgE mediated and T lymphocyte dependent pthway 2. Nonlge mediated and T lymphocyte dependent pathway

Immunologic factors the role of ige mediation The combination of allergen with specific IgE triggers the degranulation of the mast cells and eosinophils, resulting in release of mediators including leukotrienes C D, E, and the subsequent smooth muscle contraction edema of the mucosa increase of secretion, and finally stenosis of the bronchioles which all contribute to asthma. Total serum ige or specific serum Ige titer increase is seen in patients with asthma, indicating type I allergic reactions might be present

nonlgE mediated, T lymphocyte dependent pathway In delayed type allergic reaction Th2 cell directly initiates imflammatory response by activation and agglutination of various inflammatory cells via the release of multiple cytokines(L-4、I-13、I3 IL-5)
nonIgE mediated, T lymphocyte dependent pathway • In delayed type allergic reaction, Th2 cell directly initiates imflammatory response by activation and agglutination of various inflammatory cells via the release of multiple cytokines(IL-4、IL-13、IL-3、 IL-5)
Neuromental factors The complicated autonomic innervation of the bronchopulmonary sysytem includes cholinergic, adrenergic nonadrenergic and noncholinergic nerves. B-adrenergic receptor malfunction and the increased tone of the vagus or with simultaneous increase of a adrenergic reactivity, would promote contraction of the smooth muscle and secretion of the glands resulting in attack of asthma
