... Under normal conditions, the airway inflammatory response is tightly regulated by the balance between effector and regulatory immune cells [35]. With the onset of asthma, several immune cell types such as mast cells, eosinophils, Th2 cells, basophils, and platelets are abnormally recruited into target sites within the pulmonary niche ( Fig. 3) [36][37][38][39]. The production and release of several chemokines and cytokines such as histamine, leukotrienes, prostanoids, kinins, and plateletactivating factors from immune cells can deteriorate the physiological behavior of epithelial cells, smooth muscle cells, vascular cells, and local dendritic cells. ...
