Objectives
Narrative objectives1
Bronchial asthma affects approximately one million individuals in Japan. Although biologic therapies targeting type 2 (T2) inflammation, including IL-5, IL-4/13, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), have improved the management of severe asthma, some patients remain refractory to these treatments. Therefore, the identification of novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets for difficult-to-treat asthma remains an unmet need.
Mast cells are key immune cells involved in the pathogenesis of asthma and play important roles in T2 inflammatory responses. However, their clinical significance and contribution to treatment responsiveness are not fully understood.
Our preliminary studies suggest that mast cell progenitors and their related molecules may serve as novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets for severe asthma. Based on these findings, we designed the present study.
