Mechanisms of transforming growth factor-β activation in airway smooth muscle cells and its role in asthma

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways characterised by airway hyper-responsiveness (AHR), inflammation of the airways and reversible airway obstruction. Airway remodelling is a feature of asthma, especially in cases of severe and fatal asthma, and includes structural changes such a...
