Description
NARRATIVE
It remains difficult to effectively alleviate asthmatic symptoms and limit disease progression in children
with severe asthma. While corticosteroids can be effective, children with severe asthma develop corticosteroid
insensitivity or resistance making their disease difficult to manage. The goal of this proposal is to understand
how inflammation promotes corticosteroid resistance in the context of severe pediatric asthma. These studies
are also aimed to assess the potential for therapeutic strategies to improve corticosteroid sensitivity.
