Benefits of Airway Androgen Receptor Expression in Human Asthma.
...Published in American journal of respiratory and critical care medicine
Rationale: Androgens are potentially beneficial in asthma, but AR (androgen receptor) has not been studied in human airways.Objectives: To measure whether AR and its ligands are associated with human asthma outcomes.Methods: We compared the effects of AR expression on lung function, symptom scores, and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) in adul...
Neighborhoods with Greater Prevalence of Minority Residents Have Lower Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Adherence.
Published in American journal of respiratory and critical care medicine
Rationale: Limited data suggest racial disparities in continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) adherence exist.Objectives: To assess whether CPAP adherence varies by neighborhood racial composition at a national scale.Methods: Telemonitoring data from a CPAP manufacturer database were used to assess adherence in adult patients initiating CPAP the...
CD148 Deficiency in Fibroblasts Promotes the Development of Pulmonary Fibrosis.
...Published in American journal of respiratory and critical care medicine
Rationale: CD148/PTRJ (receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase η) exerts antifibrotic effects in experimental pulmonary fibrosis via interactions with its ligand syndecan-2; however, the role of CD148 in human pulmonary fibrosis remains incompletely characterized.Objectives: We investigated the role of CD148 in the profibrotic phenotype of fibro...
