International guidelines advocate a standard approach to asthma management for all, despite its heterogeneity. "Personalized" treatment of inflammatory asthma phenotypes confers superior benefits. We wished to evaluate dose response to inhaled corticosteroids (ICSs) in patients with asthma with an elevated

Many asthmatic patients are unable to quit cigarettes; therefore information is needed on treatment options for smokers. This study evaluates 10 mg/d montelukast and 250 μg of fluticasone propionate twice daily, each compared with placebo, in patients with self-reported active smoking

Mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase 1 (MKP-1) represses MAPK-driven signalling and plays an important anti-inflammatory role in asthma and airway remodelling. Although MKP-1 is corticosteroid-responsive and increased by cAMP-mediated signalling, the upregulation of this critical anti-inflammatory protein by long-acting β2-agonists and
