Research Abstract |
It is suggested that Pendrin, which is an anion channel induced by IL-13, is important for the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma. In this study, we confirmed the involvement of Pendrin in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma, and present a novel hypothesis that a thiocyanate ion transported by Pendrin to the airway surface is converted to a hypothiocyanous acid by heme-peroxidase enzymes, and then this acid affects airway epithelial cells and amplifies allergic airway inflammation through the activation of NF-kb and ERK.
